Congressional Democrats who served in the military’s video reminding US personnel they have a duty to refuse illegal orders, and lawmakers will get their back if they have to, was very good.

And as @gregsargent.bsky.social notes, it jammed Mike Johnson, who’s been thwarting Congressional oversight.
The correct answer to MAGA outrage over the Dem video is this: Are you effing kidding me? Of course it's reasonable to warn that Trump might be giving illegal orders.

The evidence is strong that he actually is giving illegal orders! I went through that evidence here:

Is Trump Giving Illegal Orders? Dems Just Blew That Question Wide Open
From the boat bombings to deportations to prosecutions, the evidence mounts. And the speaker of the House could get to the bottom of it if he wanted to. Yeah, right.

It is so far beyond irony that a white man who doesn’t believe in vaccines also believes that black children can be immunized from racism. Pretty sure it is 100% pure racist.
Trump HHS nominee RFK Jr.:

If you give Black children “resilience” then “the inevitable racism” will “bounce off” them like they are “the Avengers” because “they will be immune to it” and “then we don’t have to stop racism altogether, because we’re never going to be able to do that.”
