Ad calls for soldiers to disobey orders

Six Democratic lawmakers released a video advertisement on Tuesday urging military servicemen and intelligence agents to disobey the Trump administration and “refuse illegal orders” in order to “uphold the Constitution.” The video features senators Elissa Slotkin and Mark Kelly, and representatives Jason Crow, Maggie Goodlander, Chris Deluzio and Chrissy Houlahan. President Trump responded on Thursday by reminding service members that “seditious behavior” is “punishable by death!” This advertisement is further proof that the rule of law is breaking down, as it did during the dark days of the judges in ancient Israel, when “every man did that which was right in his own eyes” (Judges 21:25).
