民主党参议员谴责海军对Sen的审查,认为Kelly是政治性的,威胁到民主准则。
Democratic senators denounce Navy review of Sen. Mark Kelly as political, threatening democratic norms.
民主党参议员谴责海军对退休海军上尉马克·凯利参议员的审查,认为这次审查是出于政治动机,是对民主准则的威胁。
Democratic senators have condemned the Navy’s review of Senator Mark Kelly, a retired Navy captain, calling it politically motivated and a threat to democratic norms.
该探测器是国防部长彼得·赫格塞斯在Kelly与其他前官员一起出现在录像中后发起的,该录像指出,军人可以拒绝非法命令——这符合军法——引起了两党的担忧。
The probe, initiated by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth after Kelly appeared in a video with other former officials stating service members could refuse illegal orders—consistent with military law—has drawn bipartisan concern.
参议员们认为,这项审查破坏了三权分立,使军事司法政治化,并开创了危险的先例,将一名现任参议员作为合法演说的目标。
Senators argue the review undermines the separation of powers, politicizes military justice, and sets a dangerous precedent by targeting a sitting senator for lawful speech.
他们批评了时间紧迫、赫格塞思和特朗普总统的公开声明以及恐吓的可能性,敦促海军国务卿约翰·费兰停止这一进程。
They criticized the tight timeline, public statements by Hegseth and President Trump, and the potential for intimidation, urging Navy Secretary John Phelan to halt the process.
凯利驳斥了该审查毫无根据,海军预计将在12月10日前向赫格塞斯简报。
Kelly has dismissed the review as baseless, and the Navy is expected to brief Hegseth by December 10.
