Yeah, it's really remarkable.

I mean, it just shows that there are no lengths to which this administration will not go to use the process of investigation in an effort to punish people it perceives as its adversaries, whether there's any justification or not.

And it also shows that we're a government that's based on good faith.

The idea that people aren't going to abuse investigative powers because this isn't a significant power that the military has over everyone who's ever served in uniform.

The threat to call somebody back into active duty to court martial them, regardless of whether there's any merit.

And I think fair minded people can look at that, decide for themselves whether there's any merit to the allegation here.

It would still be.

a strain.

It would be an inconvenience.

It would be it could be emotionally painful, probably not for Mark Kelly, because he's defiant and he's a famous member of Congress.

But imagine for someone else that has to go through this.

It's a significant threat.

Just the investigation, just the recall to active duty.

And the Trump administration and the Defense Department has now shown that they are willing to to to use this lever of power.

So just another thing that they're willing to do to pursue their enemies, Katie.
