Here's a list of the individuals, including Mark Kelly, targeted so far by the Trump administration
Source: ABC News
The Pentagon's launching of a "thorough review" of Democratic Sen. Mark Kelly is the latest salvo in what critics call a campaign of retribution on the part of the Trump administration.
Administration officials have insisted that any such actions are, as Vice President JD Vance said, "driven by law and not by politics." But they come after President Donald Trump vowed during last year's presidential campaign that he would seek retribution if reelected.
The moves follow months of the administration vowing investigations into perceived enemies, stripping individuals of security clearances, and removing protective details.
Here's a look at some of the actions that the president's critics have experienced, which many of them perceive as retribution.
