By way of background, here is my @prospectmagazine.co.uk post on when is an order an "unlawful command" about that video of the six members of Congress.

When is an order an ‘unlawful command’?

And why has Trump reacted so furiously to six members of Congress correctly stating the law?

By me, at @prospectmagazine.co.uk

(In which I go and look at the actual law and guidance in US and also UK.)

www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/ideas/law/th...
What the six members of Congress said was correct—indeed it went no further than that the Department of Defense’s own court martial manual guidance. No particular order is mentioned: the video is framed in general terms. In any normal circumstance, the response of the US president and the administration generally would be to say “of course”. But Donald Trump and the administration did not respond in that sensible way. The president said that the six legislators should be tried and executed for sedition. The Federal Bureau of Investigation is investigating. There is even the proposal that one of the six, Senator Mark Kelly, is recalled to service so he can be punished and dismissed, notwithstanding his exemplary military service. This is nasty political intimidation on a grand scale. But the six are standing firm in the face of this bullying onslaught. They are right to do so. Although the video is a political act, to which there should be political responses, the content of the video aligns with the US government’s own formally published understanding of when orders should be disobeyed.

It’s certainly worth asking. Not much of a plan going on
