Senate Democrats Sound Alarm Over DOJ's Indictment of Congress Members

Senators Mark Kelly and Elissa Slotkin expressed strong opposition to the Justice Department's recent move to indict six members of Congress. These lawmakers had informed active duty military personnel of their right to refuse unlawful orders, which the senators argue is a fundamental democratic principle under threat. The senators described the indictment as a significant warning sign for democracy, emphasizing the importance of protecting constitutional rights. This situation raises concerns about the balance of power and the implications for military personnel and their rights.
