President Donald Trump threatened U.S. Rep. Jason Crow and other Democratic members of Congress with arrest and execution for a video in which they say members of the military and intelligence community should refuse illegal orders from the Trump administration, Colorado Newsline reports.
In posts on Truth Social, Trump said: “Their words cannot be allowed to stand,” and it is “SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR, punishable by DEATH!”
Crow, an Aurora Democrat who is a former Army Ranger, and other members of Congress with experience in the military or intelligence said service members and intelligence community members have the right to refuse illegal orders under the U.S. Constitution and the Uniform Code of Military Justice.
