Trump Calls Six Democratic Veteran Lawmakers 'Traitors' and Threatens Death Penalty for 'Refuse Illegal Orders' Video

President Trump posted on Truth Social that six Democratic lawmakers who filmed a video reminding troops they can refuse illegal orders had committed "seditious behavior, punishable by DEATH" and should be "ARRESTED AND PUT ON TRIAL." The six are military veterans and former intelligence officials. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer responded that Trump was "calling for the execution of elected officials." The FBI subsequently sought interviews with the six lawmakers.
