The congressional Democrats despise President Trump so much that he's now gotten them to defend drug smugglers for the cartels in addition to criminal illegals. This is up to and including the "Seditious Six" encouraging servicemembers to disobey what they call "illegal orders."
Democrat Sen. Mark Kelly could be in a bit of trouble over that:
In a statement, the Defense Department said it was elevating what had been a “review” to an “official Command Investigation” to be carried out at least in part by the Pentagon general counsel’s office. The change signals a more formal effort by Hegseth to scrutinize the Democratic senator from Arizona, who is a retired Navy officer and outspoken critic of the Trump administration.
Within the military, such investigations seek to determine whether disciplinary action — or potential legal action — is warranted, according to a handbook from the Naval Justice School. They typically last about 30 days and can involve documenting evidence and conducting interviews with relevant witnesses.
Kelly claims he was just doing his job:
Tonight, we learned the Pentagon is escalating its review of me into "an official command investigation."

The job of a senator is to sow dissension in the military ranks while defending drug runners and the cartels behind them? That didn't used to be in the job description.
The Dems who got on the "ignore illegal orders" bandwagon continue to see it backfire on them, and even their rhetoric about the narco terrorists is changing.
We're now at the "hey, it's just cocaine and it probably isn't even being brought to the U.S.":

So Dems have gone from “illegal war crimes and egregious human rights violations” to “come on, it’s just cocaine”? You can’t make this up. The cartels must appreciate the assist though. It's also possible that Hunter Biden also appreciates that defense of the cartels and their product.

You know, @SenMarkKelly , grok doesn't cost anything and it can help you not make statements akin to "only cocaine" in the future.#justsaying pic.twitter.com/0j6yHElT3X

Well, at least Kelly didn't claim they were "just fishermen" like some others on his side, so maybe we're making progress.
