Fox News host Jesse Watters praised the Department of Defense investigation into Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ) on Monday, declaring, “You have to make examples out of people.”

Reacting on The Five to the Trump administration’s investigation into Kelly, which could result in the senator being recalled to active duty and court-martialed over his appearance in a video urging members of the military not to follow orders, Watters said, “I’m glad that the U.S. military is now investigating this guy Kelly because this is what we expect from Donald Trump 2.0.” He continued, “You can’t have the deep state interfering with a duly elected presidency and get away with it. You gotta draw the line in the sand and you have to make examples out of people.”

Fox News’ Kennedy weighed in, “I think that Senator Kelly might have violated the FAFO [Fuck Around, Find Out] doctrine and he’s gonna find out the hard way that there, unfortunately, are consequences.” She added, “You know, these people aren’t civilians. They’ve sworn an oath to uphold and defend the Constitution, and they know what that means. They know what that means better than we civilians do, but they make a video like this trying to make a plea to people in the armed forces, and what they’re really trying to do is imply that things that you might disagree with are also illegal.”

Kennedy confessed, “And there may be things about bombing boats in the Caribbean that I have an issue with. I may have an issue with that morally and philosophically, but I have not sworn an oath to the Constitution, so I’m not on the same ground that the warriors and the people in harm’s way are. They know what they’re getting into, but what these people are trying to do, they’re trying to confuse them, and everyone I’ve spoken to in the military who is serving or who has served, they are so disgusted by this whole thing.”

1. Let's put "this guy Kelly" and his rsum'e next to TSF's and see what these morons have to say

2. The example will be what an idiot Trump is. This has got to be one of the stupidest brouhahas yet.

Kelly tells service members not to follow illegal orders and Trump - who apparently wants them to - wants Kelly arrested. And the GOP legislators say "amen."

3. Was he the one who was advocating murdering homeless people?

In any event, they specifically advocated that military members not follow orders that are clearly illegal. Like firing at unarmed American citizens.

Are they gearing up for a Stalin style show trial? After they already nearly killed his wife, and left her with permanent neurological damage. I don't think he's scared of those assholes.

6. No that was Kilmeade on the morning reeducation show.

7. Oh yeah. They all kind of run together in my head.

4. Monsters. Every one of these anti-American traitors like Watters.

5. He's literally 3rd string

O’Reilly lead the flagship program
$40+M in sexual harassment settlements

The bow tied Nepo kid was available to read copy.
$3/4B settlement

Watters used to do a “man on the street” segment where he had no copy to read and had to splice in movie clips to make his point.
He can read copy.

8. Have any soldiers actually refused orders thank you because of his advice?

Seems to me it’s a moot point, unless actual mutiny is committed. Kelly has done nothing but read the UCMJ

[Iggo]

9. Remember that, Jess.

10. I doubt Hegseth will follow through.

The backlash would be huge.
