More Democrats are coming forward and saying President Donald Trump’s administration is investigating them for participating in a recent social media campaign telling soldiers they do not have to follow illegal orders.
Rep. Jason Crow (D-CO) and Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) have recently said they are under investigation by the Trump administration. Their announcement follows the Defense Department’s decision to move forward with its investigation into Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ) for participating in the same video.
The DOD recently moved to decrease Kelly’s retirement pay. In turn, Kelly filed a civil lawsuit against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth for violating his constitutional rights.
“Donald Trump called for my arrest, prosecution, and execution — all because I said something he didn’t like,” Crow said in a statement to The Denver Post on Wednesday. “Now he’s pressuring his political appointees to harass me for daring to speak up and hold him accountable. I won’t be intimidated and will keep fighting to uphold my oath to the Constitution and defend our country.”
Slotkin also revealed on Wednesday that Jeanine Pirro, the former Fox News host turned U.S. Attorney in Washington, D.C., had reached out to her asking for an interview.
“This is the president’s playbook,” Slotkin said in a video on X. “Truth doesn’t matter. Facts don’t matter. And anyone who disagrees with him becomes an enemy. And he then weaponizes the federal government against them. It’s legal intimidation and physical intimidation meant to get you to shut up.”
