“If you want to go after Gen. Kelly, that’s up to you,” Sanders said. “But I think that, if you want to get into a debate with a four-star Marine general, I think that that’s something highly inappropriate.”

Um... no. We live in a country where the military is under civilian control, we have every right to question them and demand explanations. Kelly is not above the law. That said, Kelly is the WH Chief of Staff, that's a civilian job and he is NOT currently employed in any capacity as a four-star Marine general.
