Six Democrats urge military members to 'refuse illegal orders' in viral video; Hegseth responds
Secretary of War Pete Hegseth reposted the video, commenting, 'Stage 4 TDS'
 By Jasmine Baehr Fox News
Published November 18, 2025 7:52pm EST

A group of Democrat lawmakers with military and intelligence backgrounds released a video Tuesday urging service members to "refuse illegal orders," a message conservatives blasted as a call to defy President Donald Trump and his Secretary of War Pete Hegseth.

The one-minute video, posted by Sen. Elissa Slotkin, D-Mich., and viewed more than 1.6 million times, features six lawmakers invoking their prior service while telling members of the military and intelligence community that "the threats to our Constitution are coming from right here at home."

Slotkin and her colleagues have spent recent weeks introducing legislation to limit President Trump’s ability to deploy National Guard members domestically or launch military action against narcoterrorists without congressional approval.

None of that context appears in the video, titled "Don’t Give Up the Ship," which instead frames the appeal as a warning to military members to "stand up for our laws" and "refuse unlawful orders."

Six Democrats openly call for military and intelligence services to disobey President Trump’s orders
By Eric Utter

Nov. 18 should henceforth be recognized as far more dangerous than Jan. 6 ever was. Far more shocking. And an actual attempt at fomenting an insurrection, a coup. The “Nov. 18ers” should be forever shamed and discredited.

Rather than hundreds of unruly Trump supporters strolling through the Capitol building, many of whom were subsequently incarcerated for doing so, we have just witnessed six sitting Democratic lawmakers openly urge members of the military and intelligence community to defy direct orders from the president of the United States.

Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) posted a video to social media Tuesday morning in which she and five of her fellow traitors congressional Democratic colleagues called for the military and the intelligence community to “stand up” to President Donald Trump and his administration. In other words, to defy his orders if desired. To defy the orders of the commander-in-chief.

The video features Slotkin, the infamous and always grating Sen. Mark Kelly (AZ) -- and Reps. Jason Crow (CO), Chrissy Houlahan (PA), Chris Deluzio (PA), and Maggie Goodlander (NH).

In the video, Kelly and Crow stated, “This administration is pitting our uniformed military and intelligence community professionals against American citizens.”

So, we now need to teach law during basic training?

'Illegal' is in the eye of the beholder.

Also 'illegal' by which legal standard?  Municipal ordinance?  State law if you're in the National Guard?  Federal civilian law?  Military Code of Justice?  International Law?  Law of the Seas?  Scottish Common Law?  Murphy's Law?

This is a recipe for chaos.

Excerpt:

President Trump didn’t hold back this morning, blasting six congressional Democrats for what he called “seditious behavior” in a video urging military and intelligence officials to defy his orders. The clip, shared by the group on Tuesday, features Sens. Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) and Mark Kelly (D-AZ), along with Reps. Chris DeLuzio (D-PA), Chrissy Houlahan (D-PA), Maggie Goodlander (D-NH), and Jason Crow (D-CO), claiming Trump’s administration is pitting the military against citizens. They argue these professionals swear an oath to the Constitution, not the president, and should refuse “illegal” commands—essentially a call for mutiny to block his agenda.





He is not holding back today!  Trump is right to call it out. You can’t play politics with the chain of command, it threatens national stability.  https://www.rightjournalism.com/trump-unloads-on-six-dems-calling-for-military-mutiny-his-punishment-proposal-is-nuclear/

I can't find any way or reason that their actions don't constitute Sedition.   Hold them accountable.

They won't.  For all his faults, Trump has given them back their self-respect by re-focusing their primary mission and getting rid of all the DEI crap, and they love him for it.  The only dissenters are the gays and transvestites that Obama and Biden allowed to infest the military.

The Democrats are fooling themselves again.

That's probably a good part of the reason they won't specify what orders would be illegal. 

[Canuck Conservative]

If a US soldier hesitates to follow an order, or deliberately disobeys an order, that could get other US soldiers killed

That why this call for seditious behaviour is so dangerous ... especially coming from these so-called "Democrat military vets", who should know better

There must be some response for this traitorous behavior!

[catfish1957]

I think you would be surprised how many of our military have the image of Biden looking at his watch when the caskets were moved deeply impressed into their memory.

My guess is Trump has 60/40 support on a political basis, and 95/5 when it comes to the bull shit these politicians are proposing.

Schumer, Jeffries accuse Trump of calling for 'execution of elected officials'
Dem leaders react after Trump calls senators' video 'seditious,' 'punishable by death'
By Alex Miller , Elizabeth Elkind Fox News
Published November 20, 2025 1:17pm EST

Congressional Democratic leaders warned Thursday that President Donald Trump's posts accusing several Democrat senators of sedition, "Punishable by DEATH," would encourage political violence against lawmakers.

Trump posted on his social media platform Truth Social that six congressional Democrats featured in a viral video calling on members of the military and intelligence community to refuse to carry out "illegal" orders from higher-ups was "really bad, and Dangerous to our Country."

"Their words cannot be allowed to stand," Trump said. "SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR FROM TRAITORS!!! LOCK THEM UP??? President DJT."

He later posted, "SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR, punishable by DEATH!" and reposted a user who wrote "HANG THEM GEORGE WASHINGTON WOULD."

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said on the Senate floor that Trump was explicitly calling "for the execution of elected officials. This is an outright threat, and it's deadly serious."

"Every time Donald Trump posts things like this, he makes political violence more likely," Schumer said.

"When Donald Trump uses the language of execution and treason, some of his supporters may very well listen," he continued. "He is lighting a match in a country soaked with political gasoline."

If you read Trump's TS post, he does not specifically say any of these people should die....

This could just be trolling.....   just a tad more riskier in an escalative manner,

[catfish1957]

I didn't realize this....    I asked an AI source if Retired Military are subject to UCMJ.......


Yes, certain retired military members are subject to the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ), specifically those who are entitled to retirement pay, those receiving hospitalization from an armed force, and members of the Fleet Reserve or Fleet Marine Corps Reserve. This means they can be court-martialed for offenses under military law even after retirement.

This is a game changer since Sedition laws are different for military vs. civilians. 

[mountaineer]

Just reposting, FWIW. He's referencing Slotkin's video:

ColonelTowner-Watkins
@ColonelTowner
Let me tell you a personal story...

I personally experienced a situation where I was given an illegal order from Lt Gen John Bradley. I refused to implement that order and contacted my congressman who did absolutely nothing. I was originally asked to publish an active duty order on Col .@LindseyGrahamSC  who at the time was assigned to the Participating Inactive Ready Reserve or PIRR. It's a special category for Reservists who are elected to federal office.

These PIRR members are not, by federal law, allowed to be placed on active duty orders. I responded to Lt Gen Bradley with this information including the chapter and verse of the law, DOD instructions and Air Force instructions stating these facts. I called his executive officer, who happened to be one of my best friends with a detailed explanation.

Lt Gen Bradley notified Graham with the information. He demanded that he be placed on orders because he wanted to travel, as an Air Force JAG officer, to an active war time AOR (area of responsibility) in uniform. That is also illegal on the annual tour orders they wanted published. I, again, provided the necessary references explaining that wasn't allowed either. Follow up emails stated that Graham just wanted the orders to wear his uniform and wasn't going to file for pay so it really wasn't a problem. This came from Graham and his staffers.

I pointed out that the problem wasn't whether or not he ever filed for pay, the problem was he was ENTITLED to pay and that was how the prohibition was written. You can not be ENTITLED to pay and hold federal office where the federal government is already paying you. It strictly prohibits you from being ENTITLED to two sources of federal pay.

Eventually this back and force resulted in my telling Lt Gen Bradley that if anything happened to Graham while he was illegally in the AOR on orders with my signature on them not a single person, including him, would defend me and that I had keep a memorandum for record with emails documenting the entire chain of events. His choice was to relieve me of command or tell Graham no. He chose a 3rd option and had another colonel, who had no authority to issue orders on PIRR members, that was my authority alone, publish those orders knowing it was illegal to do so.

After this occurred, Lt Gen Bradley ordered a 'climate assessment' of my command and used a 2Lt's response who wasn't even directly assigned to my command staff, write a negative assessment. One negative assessment. I'd never even met or dealt with this 2Lt. My response to this was ignored. At the time I was in the middle of a medical review board for an injury I had as a result of being experimented on with the Anthrax 'vaccine'. It was the worse experience of my 30 yrs in the military. I was eventually medically retired and not a single congressional member gave a shit about any the illegal order. Not my senators or district congressman.

Oh, and yes Lt Gen Bradley was one of the general officers who signed the letter saying President Trump wasn't fit to be the commander in chief, of course. Lt Gen Bradley was under investigation when he retired for other actions he orchestrated that were investigated by the DOD and AF Inspector General.

From Graham's wiki page: "In 2007, Graham served in Iraq as a reservist on active duty for a short period in April and for two weeks in August, where he worked on detainee and rule-of-law issues. He also served in Afghanistan during the August 2009 Senate recess. He was then assigned as a senior instructor at the Judge Advocate General's School, though he never went."

THIS IS ILLEGAL!!!!

Lessons learned:

Congress will use the military members as pawns for their own benefit and will never defend actual wrong doing that doesn't benefit them.

BOTTOMLINE:

Any military member who believes that they are given illegal orders has a chain of command and an inspector general to address the issue. When that fails, and it often does, they are authorized, by federal law, to become a whistleblower. Congress will only act if it politically advances their political interests. The military members' interests or career is NEVER considered. 

It should also be noted that not a single person in this video helped a single military member when President Biden mandated, illegally, healthy military members be injected with a poisonous experimental cancer treatment that killed animals when they were injected. Not a single one of them made a video of the horrific treatment of anyone that refused these illegal mandates.

The thought of intelligence agents and military members advocating for a politically motivated seditious act is illustrative of the vile nature of these people in an orchestrated attack on our military and the executive branch of government. They will literally use military members as pawns in their quest to overthrow our democratically elected government.

Lastly, ask yourself these questions: Who orchestrated this video? Who contacted these seditious actors? Who compiled the footage? Who conspired/planned an act of sedition? This wasn't one congressional member with a bright idea, this was planned and orchestrated to use active duty military members to further an attack on a duly elected president by opposition forces.

Let that sink in. While they like to point to other countries as tyrannical, socialist, etc they are using the CIA tactics of regime change and destabilization in the United States of America.

Wish Trump could take a deep breath before responding.  In one single post he turned the spotlight on their stupid video and placed all the attention on him, and it looked awful.   It’s like Tourette’s syndrome, he can’t help himself. Weather it’s childish name calling “piggy”, or a tweet that is interpreted by unfriendly media like he’s calling for the death of members of congress, resulting in Carolyn Leavitt to try to put out the fire.

Dem Rep. Crow: Trump Using ‘Fear and Intimidation and Threats to Silence Opposition’

Thursday on CNN’s “The Arena,” Rep. Jason Crow (D-CO) said President Donald Trump was using “fear and intimidation and threats to silence opposition” in his response to a video featuring Democratic lawmakers telling military members about refusing illegal orders.

Host Kasie Hunt said, “I’d like to start with what the president said today about you and your colleagues, that you should be arrested and that you were guilty of sedition. I think my question off the top is, how seriously do you take this as a possibility?”

Crow said, “We have to take everything that Donald Trump says seriously. He throws a lot of stuff out there, but some of the things he carries through on. But listen, I’m not going to be intimidated. I’m not going to be threatened. I took an oath to the Constitution. I’ve seen friends and people that I’ve served with give everything to uphold that oath. That is an oath that will last my entire life, and I intend to keep it. And I’m just not going to allow him to silence dissent and opposition. And it just tells us everything that we need to know that reminding people to obey the law, reminding people to obey the Constitution, is somehow criminal in Trump world and should be responded to with death threats.”

He added, “What he is trying to do is he’s trying to use fear and intimidation and threats to silence opposition. And if he’s successful in doing that, we are all lost. And I’m not going to allow him to do it. I’m going to stand up and I’m going to lead, and I’m going to do what’s necessary to uphold the Constitution now and always.”

You have to wonder how low the radical left will go, but six congressional Democrats just hit a new bottom with their joint statement responding to President Trump’s call for arrests and trials over their video urging military and intelligence officials to mutiny against his orders.

Slotkin’s post: “We want to speak directly to members of the Military and the Intelligence Community… Don’t give up the ship.”





It’s becoming awfully concerning that the DOJ and FBI have not held any political criminals accountable. It’s making me wonder if they are actually bordering on criminal activity themselves by ignoring their oath to office, and not doing the duties they swore to do.

You know, it’s almost comical how the radical left plays the victim card at the drop of a hat, but this time, it’s a bit too rich—six congressional Democrats who urged the military to disobey Trump’s “illegal orders” are now hiding behind 24/7 Capitol Police protection after he called them “traitors” and suggested their sedition could be “punishable by DEATH.” Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) spilled it on MSNBC’s “All In with Chris Hayes,” saying, “Capitol Police came to us and said, ‘We’re gonna put you on 24/7 security.’ We’ve got law enforcement out in front of my house. I mean, it changes things immediately.” She blamed Trump’s “climate from the top,” claiming his words inspire worse threats, with “hundreds, if not thousands” of calls, emails, and posts flooding in.




These traitors need to be held accountable for their crimes. Democrats have crossed the line.

@CynicalPublius
RE: Lawful Orders

Many years ago as a young Army captain I was fortunate enough to serve as an intern on the Joint Staff (i.e., the staff that supports the Joint Chiefs of Staff).

One of the duties all Joint Staff interns routinely had was to be a “rent-a-crowd” for VIPs giving speeches.

One day me and my buddy Werner got the order to put on our Class A uniforms and head over to Fort McNair to hear a speech by President Bill Clinton.

Little did we know that we were about to hear the historic “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” speech allowing gays in the military.

I was literally in the second row in the auditorium. David Gergen and George Stephanopoulos were in the front row right in front of me.  Before the speech started, the two of them were laughing and cackling like school girls over how successful they had been at setting up the imaging they wanted.

That imaging was Slick Willie at the podium with the Joint Chiefs of Staff sitting behind him, as if they supported what he was about to say.

I was about twenty feet from General Carl Mundy, who was then the Commandant of the Marine Corps.  As Clinton started giving the speech that would begin the U.S. military’s death spiral into social experimentation that valued DEI over lethality, my eyes were riveted on Mundy.  He sat perfectly motionless in his chair, legs spread, hands on knees, with a look on his face that said “Daggers.”  He was apparently frozen and motionless.  However, I was close enough to see that he was actually flexing his jaw muscles and gritting his teeth repeatedly as he endured Clinton’s speech.

His anger was palpable.  He had been on record as strongly opposing the new policy, and it was obvious he was doing everything he could to control his emotions.

But you know what?  As badly as Mundy obviously hated what Clinton was doing to his Marine Corps, he knew that Clinton’s order was lawful.

While he hated it politically, he did not pretend the order was “unlawful.”

But not just Mundy.

ALL OF US hated the order politically and socially, but all of us knew it was a lawful order coming from the President and that it was our Constitutional duty to execute that order to the best of our abilities, enthusiastically.

So we did.

But somewhere along the way today's cretinous veteran Democrats in Congress decided that they would no longer do the right thing that we and Mundy did.

They decided that lawful orders are “unlawful” if they disagree politically.

Now they are destroying our military and our nation out of sheer disloyal, treasonous ego.

Pretending that lawful orders are “unlawful” if you disagree politically is not the role of a U.S. service member who follows his or her oath of office.

Encouraging troops to take such steps is sedition.

Democrats need to step back and remember what General Carl Mundy knew before they start their second U.S. civil war.

Back off, traitors.

Dems Who Called On Military To Resist Trump Are Being Investigated By ‘Military Courts,’ Trump Says

Published 18 hours ago

on November 21, 2025

By Cullen McCue

President Donald Trump reiterated in a radio interview Friday that he believes a video statement put out by Democrat lawmakers with military and intelligence backgrounds — which called on service members to “resist” the Trump Administration over undefined “illegal” orders — amounted to “treasonous” behavior. The president added that War Secretary Pete Hegseth is currently investigating the matter, which could lead to discipline from “military courts.”

The controversy erupted earlier this week when Senators Mark Kelly (D-AZ), Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) and a number of House Democrats, all of whom have backgrounds in the military or intelligence community, released a video in which they urged military personnel to disobey “illegal” orders.

“We know you are under enormous stress and pressure right now, Americans trust their military, but that trust is at risk. This administration is pitting our uniformed military and intelligence community professionals against American citizens like us. You all swore an oath to protect and defend this constitution,” the lawmakers said in the video.

“Right now, the threats to our Constitution aren’t just coming from abroad, but from right here at home. Our laws are clear,” they added. “You can refuse illegal orders…you must refuse illegal orders. No one has to carry out orders that violate the law or our constitution.”

A number of senior White House officials, including Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller and President Trump himself, have described the video as “seditious” and called for investigations. “SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR, punishable by DEATH,” the president posted on Truth Social after the video was released.

During an appearance on the “Brian Kilmeade Show” on Friday, the president doubled down on his comments and suggested that investigations are underway.

“Well, if you look at sedition, if you look at, uh, you know, that type of, it’s a form of a very strong form of being a traitor. It’s a terrible thing to say. I must tell you, I heard it and I thought it was some kind of a comedy situation. I thought that would, you know, it was some kind of a skit and cause I couldn’t believe that they’d say it,” Trump said.

“And I watched Democrat congressmen and one Democrat Senator yesterday in one of the shows Didn’t even want to discuss it. They said, whoa, don’t get me into that one. They didn’t want to get into it. That is a really serious charge. I’ll tell you what, what they said is, and it was, I mean, I don’t know about the modern day things because, you know, modern day is a lot softer. But in the old days, if you said anything like that, that was punishable by death.”

The president went on to state that the six lawmakers are in “serious trouble,” adding, “I’m not threatening death, but I think they’re in serious trouble. In the old days, it was death.”
