President Donald Trump lashed out Thursday at the six Democratic lawmakers who urged U.S. troops last year to refuse unlawful orders, demanding to know whether they would be charged over their supposed “great violation.”
The six lawmakers are Sens. Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) and Mark Kelly (D-AZ) and Reps. Chris Deluzio (D-PA), Chrissy Houlahan (D-PA), Maggie Goodlander (D-NH) and Jason Crow (D-CO), all veterans of the military or intelligence services. In November 2025, they released a video telling service members, “You can refuse illegal orders.”
Trump responded by calling it “SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR, punishable by DEATH” and reposting a message saying the Democrats should be hanged.
“Will the Seditious Six ever be prosecuted?” Trump asked Thursday on his social media platform Truth Social. “What they did was a great violation to our Country and its Constitution!”
The Trump administration tried and failed to secure indictments against the Democratic lawmakers earlier this year, NBC News previously reported.
