A half-dozen Democratic veterans in Congress released a joint video urging U.S. service members to disobey unlawful orders, though they did not specify what those would be.
Democrats in the video include, from top row, left to right, Elissa Slotkin of Michigan, Mark Kelly of Arizona, Chris Deluzio of Pennsylvania, Maggie Goodlander of New Hampshire (wife of Jake Sullivan), Chrissy Houlahan of Pennsylvania, and Jason Crow of Colorado. (@SenatorSlotkin/X screen shot)
(…) None of the Democrats in the video specified what illegal orders they should be concerned about or what to do if they believe they are given one. (Washington Examiner, 11/19/2025)

.@StephenM: “It is insurrection—plainly, directly, without question… It’s a general call for rebellion from the CIA and the armed services of the United States, by Democrat lawmakers… it shows what a dangerous moment we’re in.” https://t.co/SX9fpzvlnp pic.twitter.com/DexzG7eraq
