Trump Threatened to Hang Senator Kelly. Kelly Just Told Him “Come and Get Me”

Trump ordered senators executed. Mark Kelly just told him to bring it.

Yesterday Mark Kelly didn’t hold a press conference. He threw down a gauntlet in front of a president who thinks he can threaten U.S. senators with execution and walk away untouched. These are the moments now burning through Washington.

• President of the United States demands execution of sitting senators for protected political speech Trump called for two U.S. senators and four House members to be arrested, court-martialed, and hanged—over a video that simply reminded troops they must refuse illegal orders under the Uniform Code of Military Justice. Pure First Amendment activity. “That’s not going to happen,” Kelly said flatly. “Our First Amendment rights ain’t happening.”

• Senators learned they were marked for death inside a classified SCIF Mid-briefing, staffer handed Alyssa Slotkin a note: “President just called for your execution.” Five minutes later she returned: “He called for yours too.” Kelly: “We expected him to say ‘Of course’—not threaten our lives. That was not the response we expected.”

• Pete Hegseth launches military investigation into a senator—by tweet Same Secretary of Defense who posts turtle-with-RPG memes and fired every JAG officer and inspector general who ever said “no” now claims authority to court-martial elected members of Congress. Kelly found out the same way we did: Hegseth’s X post. “Think about that—ludicrous. He cares about Twitter views, not the law.”

• Hegseth accused of ordering “kill everybody” second strikes on shipwreck survivors Reports say he personally commanded a follow-up attack on incapacitated men in the water, machine-gunning survivors in violation of the Geneva Conventions and law of the sea. Kelly: “I’ve sunk two ships in combat and hold our SEALs in the highest regard—the most highly trained individuals in our military. I pray the reports are wrong. If true, it’s a war crime. That man belongs at The Hague.”

• Kelly demands Hegseth testify publicly—while Hegseth’s memos create congressional bottlenecks “There needs to be an investigation—we need to pull DoD and military members into the Armed Services Committees in the House and Senate,” Kelly said, pushing for both public and closed hearings on the strikes. “They absolutely should appear before the committee... I would generally prefer public hearings so the American people can see.” But Hegseth’s October memos bar all DoD personnel from discussing “sensitive military operations” like the boat strikes without prior approval from his legislative affairs office—throttling oversight and forcing endless red tape that delays truth and protects war criminals.

• Kelly shreds Trump’s lifelong bully playbook in one sentence “From bankrupting casinos and stiffing contractors, to threatening universities and late-night hosts, to now threatening to execute members of Congress—it’s the only thing he’s ever done. It stops here. Enough of the bullying, intimidation, threats, and nonsense.”

• Side-by-side life receipts—no mercy 1991: Trump bankrupted the Taj Mahal while Kelly was getting shot at over Iraq 2001: Trump bragged 9/11 made his building tallest while Kelly flew 9/11 memorial flags into space 2003: Trump sent birthday wishes to Jeffrey Epstein while Kelly recovered his dead crewmates after Columbia 2011: Trump pushed birtherism on reality TV while Kelly held Gabby’s hand after she took a bullet to the head Kelly: “I’ve been through far worse than Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth combined. They will not silence me.”

• Death threats against Kelly and Gabby Giffords spiked immediately “The calls and messages turned graphically worse the second Trump spoke—threats on her life more so today because of what he said about me. We’re no stranger to political violence, but he knows that. He’s the target of it himself. This radicalizes the crazies.”

• Zero faith in Hegseth, full faith in bipartisan probes “I have tremendous confidence in Chairman Roger Wicker (R-MS) and Ranking Member Jack Reed (D-RI) to uncover the truth through the Armed Services Committee. I have zero confidence in the guy posting turtle memes while holding the nuclear biscuit—or in a DoD run by someone who gutted the inspectors general.”

• The real message being sent to every corner of America Retired generals, civil servants, CEOs, professors, comedians, ordinary citizens: keep your mouth shut or the military comes for you next. Kelly: “This isn’t about me or the other five in the video. It’s about who he goes after tomorrow—which service member, which government employee, which citizen. That’s not going to happen.”

• Kelly’s closing line that should end every bully’s career “I will not be intimidated by this president. I will not be silenced by this president or the people around him. I’ve given too much to this country to back down to this guy. Nothing—nothing—is going to stop me from doing my job: fighting for the Constitution and the American people.”

The bully just picked a fight with a man who’s been to space, recovered his dead crewmates, and held his wife’s hand after an assassin’s bullet.
Threatening to hang Mark Kelly is the moment the regime showed it’s running out of runway.
Tick-tock, motherfuckers.
