The FBI has initiated inquiries with six Democratic members of the US Congress regarding a video message they sent to military officials. The lawmakers expressed concerns about potential unlawful orders and advised against carrying out specific directives. The Pentagon issued a statement Monday, threatening to recall Senator Mark Kelly to active duty military service due to what Secretary of Defence Pete Hegsetth described as “seditious” actions. The Congressional members’ communication has triggered a significant security response, with the Department of Defence now assessing the situation and its potential implications for military operations. The FBI’s investigation is focused on understanding the nature of the concerns expressed and clarifying the lawmakers’ statements.
