Senator Slotkin Also being Investigated by the Trump Administration

One of the other Senators in the video is saying she is being criminally investigated also. The roller coaster is starting to accelerate.

Slotkin says she’s under federal investigation over illegal orders video​

Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-Mich.) said Tuesday that she’s under federal investigation for participating in a video last year, where she and other Democrats with military and intelligence backgrounds urged troops to defy illegal orders.

“Facts matter little, but the threat matters quite a bit,” she told The New York Times in an interview. “The threat of legal action; the threat to your family; the threat to your staff; the threat to you.”


The Hill has reached out to Slotkin and the U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia for comment.

Slotkin is a veteran who served three tours in Iraq and previously worked for the CIA.

Everyone who participated in that insurrection should be under investigation for it.
 
You can’t possibly think that it’s a criminal offense to say something that is consistent with the UCMJ.
UCMJ does not apply to them. GOP tried that on Clinton/Lewinsky affair. Clinton said he is a civilian and therefore the UCMJ is invalid.
 
Republicans accuse Biden of "cheating", which is a lie, so Republicans attempted to cheat, and then overturn, a free and fair election.

Republicans accuse Biden of "weaponizing" the government, another lie, and now they have weaponized government in ways no one alive today has ever seen before.

Noticing a pattern yet?

Yup. You are an apologist for Biden. Why God knows. He fucked your party almost as bad as fucked the country
 
I would think people who spent the better part of a year screaming, 'nobody is above the law' would support such investigations. It is almost like some people don't want to expose corruption and sedition. Sad.

WASHINGTON — Three more Democrats said Wednesday that federal prosecutors contacted them following their participation in a video urging members of the military and the intelligence community not to follow illegal orders.

Reps. Jason Crow of Colorado, Maggie Goodlander of New Hampshire and Chrissy Houlahan of Pennsylvania all struck defiant tones in saying they would fight back against any investigation by the Trump administration.


"Donald Trump called for my arrest, prosecution, and execution—all because I said something he didn’t like. Now he’s pressuring his political appointees to harass me for daring to speak up and hold him accountable," Crow said in a statement.

Goodlander said on X, "It is sad and telling that simply stating a bedrock principle of American law caused the President of the United States to threaten violence against me, and it is downright dangerous that the Justice Department is targeting me for doing my job.

"These threats will not deter, distract, intimidate, or silence me," she added.

Houlahan, in her social media post, said, "The six of us are being targeted not because we said something untrue, but because we said something President Trump and Secretary Hegseth didn’t want anyone to hear."

Another of the six lawmakers involved in the video, Sen. Elissa Slotkin, D-Mich., said Tuesday that she was being investigated by Jeanine Pirro, the U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia and a close Trump ally.

Speaking to reporters Wednesday before he issued his statement, Crow said Slotkin "is facing the exact same thing that all the members who filmed this video are facing right now. It’s the same situation that the Trump administration has decided to weaponize the Department of Justice to try to silence their political opponents and suppress dissent. But we are members of Congress, we will do our duty."

Calling this corruption and sedition is absurd beyond reason.
 
Hardly, there are laws that cover this very situation. It is illegal and these seditionists are not above the law.
It’s absurd to call it sedition if you have a basic understanding of English. What they said is consistent with the law.
