The Air Force has now placed Maj. Jason Watson in pretrial confinement following his public calls for President Donald J. Trump’s impeachment. Watson was previously arrested on July 1st after delivering a speech on the U.S. Capitol steps calling for the impeachment of President Trump while in uniform. He was not formally charged by the military over that demonstration, although wearing a uniform while participating in political activity is prohibited by military regulations. He was detained again on Aug. 18, one day after criticizing Trump in a CNN interview. According to his attorney, Watson had informed his chain of command that he would no longer wear his uniform and was arrested after refusing an order to put it back on. The Air Force says there is probable cause supporting allegations of “continued misconduct,” but Watson has not yet been formally charged. His attorney expects potential charges under Article 88, which prohibits contemptuous words against certain senior government officials, or Article 92 for failure to obey an order. Source:
