    “you’re ignoring what this member of congress said!”

    the congresswoman said “You don’t have to obey illegal orders.”

    leavet goes onto say “She’s telling people to defy legal orders”.

    I don’t believe aliens have ever come to earth, but reptilians in fleshsuits would explain a lot of what’s going on just now.

    While the Uniform Code of Military Justice requires service members to obey “all lawful orders,” the definition of “lawful orders” as commonly understood excludes orders to commit crimes, target civilians or noncombatants, or perform civilian law enforcement activities that have long been banned under U.S. law.

    Trump is no longer able to contain his narcissistic rage at being criticized or disobeyed. Calling for service members to disobey his administration’s blatantly illegal orders is a defiant act of patriotism.
