CNN’s resident Trump-hater Jake Tapper has sunk to new lows, peddling the absurd claim that President Trump wants to execute Democratic members of Congress—prompting Reuters to issue a laughable “clarification” that, no, Trump does not actually plan to kill his political opponents.
The whole manufactured outrage stems from a ‘seditious’ video released by a cabal of congressional Democrats—all with military or intelligence backgrounds—who vaguely urged active-duty service members and intel pros to defy “illegal orders” from the Trump administration, without citing a single actual unlawful directive.
The clip, spearheaded by Michigan Rep. Elissa Slotkin and featuring Arizona Sen. Mark Kelly, Colorado Rep. Jason Crow, Pennsylvania Rep. Chris Deluzio, and Pennsylvania Rep. Chrissy Houlahan, accuses Trump of “pitting” the military “against American citizens” and violating the Constitution, while solemnly intoning: “You can refuse illegal orders… You must refuse illegal orders.”
