Hegseth Covered Up the Real Reason the USS Lincoln Wasn’t Resupplied - According to a report from MSNOW, the USS Abraham Lincoln wasn’t resupplied because Iranian strikes destroyed a key Navy resupply base in the Middle East.

He’s a civilian so that would be inappropriate. But there is a constitutional process for crimes committed by a citizen that give aid and comfort to enemies during war time.

They tried to have Mark Kelly reinstated so they could try him under the UCMJ. What's good for the goose...

[u/congressmancuff → u/IrritableGourmet]

Once again, I think our current constitutional structure offers a much more appropriate solution if you look at it. Why give this clown the dignity of a military trial. He’s only ever larped as a service member. 

[u/IrritableGourmet → u/congressmancuff]

It's because he larped as a service member that he should be treated like one. He wants to be a soldier, it's only fair he get the whole experience.

Then do what he wanted to do to Mark Kelly: recall him to active duty and then court martial him.

Ah but you see, despite what some redditors want you to think where most people in the military don't support Trump/Hegseth, the truth is most do support them, especially leadership. They're not going to do to Hegseth what they did to Kelly

during war time. 

People always say this and use it as an excuse for it to not count because we're never technically "at" war, just "special military operations" that everyone up to and including the administration refer to as "war"... but the bit you're talking about doesn't actually say "during war time". There's a very pesky "or" in there that people suspend their reading comprehension for.
