Martha MacCallum Challenges Dem Calling for Military to Defy ‘Illegal’ Trump Orders and Comes Up Empty – Twitchy

As we told you yesterday, there’s an attempted insurrection happening amongst the Democrats. At least, that’s how it would be reported if Republicans were calling on members of the military and intel communities to defy presidential orders they deemed “illegal.” 

Here’s the video that’s going around: 

We want to speak directly to members of the Military and the Intelligence Community.

The American people need you to stand up for our laws and our Constitution.

Ironically there are some former intelligence officials in that video, and when have we seen any fairly recent examples of anybody from that community lying to us? Well, except 51 ex members on intel of course.

One of those Democrats is Rep. Jason Crow of Colorado, who was challenged by Fox News’ Martha MacCallum and seemed to come up empty as to any actual illegal orders the military or others should defy.

Just imagine the Democrat reaction of a bunch of Republicans put out a similar call to the military when President Autopen was in office. 

WOW — Dem Rep who put out a video instructing the military NOT to obey the President In Chief’s commands…yells at @marthamaccallum for questioning his corrupt motive.

Dem: “YOU DON’T THINK [OFFICERS] CAN HANDLE REMINDERS ABOUT THEIR LEGAL OBLIGATIONS?”

Keep in mind the kinds of TDS-addled folks who would like the U.S. military to rebel against Trump are people like Mark Milley, who apparently thought “patriotism” was speaking with CCP generals and promising to tip them off as to any questionable Trump decisions regarding China. 

Brit Hume added this: 

Good for Martha. The Dems who made the video did not cite a single supposedly illegal Trump order and Crow didn’t either in this interview. https://t.co/SyCDgKmI7J

This would be a bigger deal if the president was a Dem and the media weren’t pro-lib propagandists.
