FBI Probe of Democrats Sets Off Furor

Punchbowl News: “Here’s another precedent that could come back to haunt Hill Republicans one day — President Donald Trump’s administration is launching an investigation into Democratic lawmakers for a critical video posted to X.”

“The video, posted Nov. 18, featured six Democratic lawmakers with national security backgrounds telling military service members they shouldn’t feel compelled to comply with illegal orders. Service members must follow ‘lawful orders’’ under the Uniform Code of Military Justice.”

“It’s precisely the kind of Democratic video clip we’ve come to expect during the Trump era — veterans, former intelligence officials and others in the defense space taking a whack at the president in a manner that questions his fidelity to the nation’s constitutional order.”
