上个月因呼吁弹劾总统唐纳德·特朗普而在国会山台阶上被捕的美国军人杰森·沃森再次被拘留——距离他接受美国有线电视新闻网(CNN)独家采访批评总统仅数日之隔。

美国空军发言人告诉CNN,这位空军少校已于周二“被下令进行审前拘留”。据该拘留中心的公共信息官员透露,他目前被关押在马里兰州的一所县看守所,处于军方羁押状态。

“军人必须遵守《统一军事司法法典》以及所有适用法规,”空军发言人在一份声明中表示。“基于有合理理由支持其存在持续不当行为的指控,沃森少校已于2026年8月18日被下令审前拘留。沃森少校被假定无罪,在对其审前拘留进行审查时,将被赋予《军事法庭规则》第305条规定的所有权利。”

目前尚不清楚沃森可能面临何种不当行为指控。CNN已向空军方面寻求进一步细节。

沃森的律师克里斯·穆蒂默表示,他尚未与沃森取得联系,但怀疑他本周早些时候接受CNN采访一事与其被拘留有关。

周一,沃森接受了CNN记者艾琳·伯内特的采访,批评了总统,并继续呼吁弹劾并罢免特朗普。

“特朗普总统所面临的情况并不正常。他让我们失望了,”沃森说道。“他不仅作为总统履职失败,还公然违反宪法、触犯法律、大肆腐败,并且正在造成美国人死亡。这对我来说是不可接受的,对我们所有人来说也应该是不可接受的。”

现役军人公开表达异见极为罕见,因为军人必须按照《统一军事司法法典》服从命令,该法典第88条将针对总统、副总统、国会及其他高级官员的轻蔑言论定为犯罪。

“沃森少校的个人言论并不代表空军部的观点或政策,”该机构发言人周三在声明中表示。

沃森此前于7月1日在国会山台阶上被捕,当时他发表演讲呼吁弹劾并罢免特朗普和副总统JD·万斯。

美国国会警察局当时告诉CNN,除非有国会议员陪同,否则公众不得在众议院台阶上举行示威活动。警方表示,一名国会议员将沃森“护送到”台阶上,随后该议员“离开了现场”。

沃森在示威活动中身着军装。军事条例禁止军人在参与政治活动时穿着军装,但截至目前,沃森尚未因此次示威活动面临任何违规指控。

沃森本周早些时候告诉CNN,他愿意为公开批评本届政府付出代价。

“我们必须愿意接受,只要我们愿意为此付出代价,就能改变我们国家正在发生的一切,”沃森说。“所以我能做的就是扪心自问,我愿意付出的最高代价是什么。而这就是我最终得出的结果。”

Jason Watson, the US service member who was arrested on the steps of the US Capitol last month after calling for the impeachment of President Donald Trump, has been detained once again —just days after he criticized the president in an exclusive CNN interview.

The US Air Force major was “ordered into pretrial confinement” Tuesday, a US Air Force spokesperson told CNN. He is currently being detained at a county facility in Maryland and is on a military hold, according to the public information officer for that detention center.

“Military members are required to comply with the Uniform Code of Military Justice and all applicable regulations,” the Air Force spokesperson said in a statement. “Based on probable cause to support allegations of continued misconduct, Maj. Watson was ordered into pretrial confinement on Aug. 18, 2026. Maj. Watson is presumed innocent and will be afforded all rights under Rule for Courts-Martial 305 as his pretrial confinement is reviewed.”

It is unclear what allegations of misconduct Watson might be facing. CNN has asked the Air Force for further details.

Watson’s attorney Chris Mutimer said he has not spoken to Watson yet but suspects that his appearance on CNN earlier this week played a role in his detention.

On Monday, Watson spoke with CNN’s Erin Burnett and criticized the president, whose impeachment and removal he continues to call for.

“What is happening with President Trump is not normal. He has failed us,” Watson said. “And not only is he a failure as president, he is flagrantly violating the Constitution, breaking the law, engaged in rampant corruption and is killing Americans. And that is unacceptable to me and it should be unacceptable to all of us.”

Public dissent within active-duty military ranks is rare as service members are required to follow orders in accordance with the Uniform Code of Military Justice, which criminalizes contemptuous words against the president, vice president, Congress and other top officials under Article 88.

“Maj. Watson’s personal statements do not reflect the views or policies of the Department of the Air Force,” the agency spokesperson said in the statement Wednesday.

Watson was previously arrested on July 1 on the US Capitol steps after he gave a speech calling for the impeachment and removal of Trump and Vice President JD Vance.

US Capitol Police told CNN at the time that members of the public are not allowed to demonstrate on the steps of the House unless they are accompanied by a member of Congress. Watson was “escorted” to the steps by a member, who then “left the area,” according to police.

Watson was wearing his uniform during the demonstration. Military regulation bans wearing a uniform while participating in political activities, though to date Watson had not been charged with an infraction tied to the demonstration.

Watson told CNN earlier this week that he is willing to pay the price of speaking out against the administration.

“We just have to be willing to accept that we can change what is happening in our country if we’re just willing to pay a price for it,” Watson said. “So all that I could do was ask myself what’s the highest price that I’m willing to pay. And this is what I ultimately came up with.”
