The radical Left are truly confused. Their confusion often makes for some humiliating moments.
And a Democrat senator made a truly embarrassing confession on live television.
In a stunning admission on national TV, Michigan Democrat Senator Elissa Slotkin finally came clean about the wild claims her party has been pushing against President Trump. During her appearance on ABC’s This Week, Slotkin confessed that she’s got zero evidence of Trump ever handing down illegal orders to the brave men and women in uniform. This bombshell drops right after Democrats unleashed a propaganda video trying to stir up mutiny in the ranks.
Host Martha Raddatz didn’t let Slotkin off easy, pressing her on the White House’s sharp rebuke of that divisive video. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt had already called out the Democrats for implying Trump issued unlawful commands—which, as she rightly pointed out, he absolutely hasn’t. It’s classic Democrat playbook: manufacture a crisis to undermine a strong leader who’s putting America first.
Slotkin tried to spin it, claiming the video came about because a flood of troops and junior officers were supposedly confused about their duties. But let’s call it what it is—Democrats are sowing doubt and division in the military to score cheap political points against Trump. They’re desperate to paint him as some kind of tyrant, even when the facts don’t back it up.
Raddatz went straight for the jugular: “Let’s talk right now. Do you believe President Trump has issued any illegal orders?”
“To my knowledge, I am not aware of things that are illegal — but certainly there are some legal gymnastics that are going on with these Caribbean strikes, and everything related to Venezuela,” Slotkin said.

President Trump didn’t take this lying down. On Truth Social, he fired back hard against the Democrats who dared to encourage our troops to defy their Commander-in-Chief. His post was a rallying cry for law and order in the face of leftist chaos.
“THE TRAITORS THAT TOLD THE MILITARY TO DISOBEY MY ORDERS SHOULD BE IN JAIL RIGHT NOW, NOT ROAMING THE FAKE NEWS NETWORKS TRYING TO EXPLAIN THAT WHAT THEY SAID WAS OKAY,” Trump stated.
“IT WASN’T, AND NEVER WILL BE! IT WAS SEDITION AT THE HIGHEST LEVEL, AND SEDITION IS A MAJOR CRIME. THERE CAN BE NO OTHER INTERPRETATION OF WHAT THEY SAID!”
Trump’s words hit like a thunderbolt, exposing the hypocrisy of these so-called public servants. Democrats like Slotkin are quick to lecture about the Constitution, but when it suits them, they flirt with ideas that could tear apart the chain of command the military relies on.
This all stems from a shameless video dropped by Slotkin, Arizona’s Senator Mark Kelly, Pennsylvania Reps. Chris Deluzio and Chrissy Houlahan, and their cronies. They claim Trump’s team is somehow turning the military and intel pros against everyday Americans. It’s laughable—Trump’s the one who’s always had the backs of American service members, unlike the Biden-Harris crew that left them hanging in Afghanistan.
“Right now, the threats to our Constitution aren’t just coming from abroad, but from right here at home,” the Democrats stated in the video.
“Our laws are clear, you can refuse illegal orders,” Kelly said.
“You can refuse illegal orders,” Slotkin stated.
Fox News nailed it when they reported Trump’s initial gut-punch response to the video: “SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR, punishable by DEATH!” Of course, the media twisted that, but Trump set the record straight—he wasn’t calling for executions, just highlighting the gravity of what these Democrats are playing with.
At the end of the day, this episode shows why Americans are fed up with the DC swamp. Trump fights for the troops, secures the borders, and calls out traitorous nonsense when he sees it.
Democrats? They’re busy inventing scandals to distract from their own failures.
