- A federal judge blocked the Pentagon from punishing Democratic Sen. Mark Kelly, a former Navy pilot, for participating in a video that called on troops to resist unlawful orders.
- The ruling prevents any demotion of Kelly's Navy rank or retirement-pay cut during the ongoing First Amendment review, illustrating judicial limits on punishing speech tied to public policy.
- The ruling's tone and framing suggest the case could be immediately appealed, highlighting the ongoing dispute over where free speech ends and government punishment begins.
