For a South African oligarch, who can't play an online computer combat game without cheating, to call an American soldier, officer, astronaut, Senator a traitor, makes me want to vomit.

Thank you, Mark Kelly, for exposing Elon Musk and TRUMP horrible and cruelty abroad and here at home.

[MaliciousCat]

Sen. Kelly is a American Hero. We need more heroes like him against Trump and Musk's traitorous evil.

[metalman]

Mark Kelly, you are an American hero!

Harris told us what trump was going to do, and she was 💯 correct.

[scottwright]

Every American should be outraged at muskrat for calling this man a traitor.

[emmanuelxavier]

Mr. Kelly is the true American! Salute you Sir!

[ТетянаПетрівна-ле]

From Ukraine! I thank all Americans who are on our side! I really hope you'll get your democracy back

[TerryQuinane-jvqx]

The only oath Elon has taken is to defend his bank balance. How dare he call Kelly a traitor.

[ninakerstetter]

“Traitor”? Musk isn’t fit to wipe Kelly’s shoes! Kelly is an American patriot on many levels. 🇺🇸

[debkohler]

Thanks Sen. Kelly. It's is nice to have a state representative that works for all the people instead of a political party.

[ChairPacer]

Kamala was 100% right in her assessment that trump is extremely easy to manipulate. Folding like a chair to putin, how embarrassing

[platinaatje]

The cruelty of trump vance and musk is in the same realm as putin, netanyahu and assad.
Let that sink in. Disgusting.

[BlueLotusBlossom]

Senator Kelly, thanks for speaking out for Ukrainians

[KelliReimer]

As a Canadian, thank you for all of your service for democracy Mr. Mark Kelly.

Canadian here, I employ a girl in canada she was a lawyer in Ukraine. Freshly minted. She's in her early thirties. Her dad is in the military fighting her mom is in the capital and she's in Canada. The trip back home took almost 3 days because the plane ride from Vancouver Poland was about 16 hours. And then another 16-hour bus ride. Absolutely brutal trip. Recommend him for going there and getting answers for the American people to show them what is really happening.

[FloridaRaider]

This makes me sick. Trump is soulless.

[hgfku-tnhb]

Allowing Trump an opportunity to even finish his term is going to be devastating and have negative impacts for the US

[monicabelanger]

Rachel Maddow, you are a stellar reporter/newscaster. Thank you for the good work you do!!!

[stratostatic]

Mark Kelly checks all the boxes as a genuine American hero.
