Mark Kelly For President?

Judge rejects Hegseth bid to punish Sen. Kelly for video message to troops

“This Court has all it needs to conclude that Defendants have trampled on Senator Kelly’s First Amendment freedoms and threatened the constitutional liberties of millions of military retirees,” Leon wrote in a 29-page opinion.

The judge, who was nominated to the bench by President George W. Bush, said the case had ramifications far beyond one senator — millions of retired service members’ free-speech rights could be chilled, he said.

“Rather than trying to shrink the First Amendment liberties of retired servicemembers, Secretary Hegseth and his fellow Defendants might reflect and be grateful for the wisdom and expertise that retired servicemembers have brought to public discussions and debate on military matters in our Nation over the past 250 years,” the judge wrote. “If so, they will more fully appreciate why the Founding Fathers made free speech the first Amendment in the Bill of Rights!”

Here is a poem a commenter posted mocking Whiskey Pete.

Whiskey Pete
Whiskey Pete
Thought censuring a hero would be pretty neat
All he got was his mouth
Filled with both his feet
Now he beats a swift retreat
Go back to the gutter, Whiskey Pete!
