If GOP members of Congress had made a video last year under the Biden administration, saying to the military that they didn’t have to obey illegal orders, everyone would have said “Huh?” Because there was nothing close to that even happening. It would have produced a collective shrug.

A powerful message from six Democrats reminded the military of a fundamental truth: illegal orders must be refused. Trump’s over-the-top reaction only highlighted the danger he poses, while the response from the 'Seditious Six' hints at a more strategic approach to Democratic communications.
