Today is Tuesday, November 25, 2025. The uproar over that video that six Democrats recorded in which they urged military service members not to follow unlawful orders, but what the criminal in the White House has laughingly called “seditious,” is getting more steam as it was announced just the other day that the Pentagon is investigating “serious allegations of misconduct” against one of the lawmakers, Senator Mark Kelly of Arizona, who is married to former Rep. Gabby Giffords who was incapacitated during an assassination attempt in January 2011 just outside of Tucson. This disturbing story comes out of CBS Politics on my smartphone in an article written by Joe Walsh entitled “Accusations of ‘sedition’ spark uproar after video on refusing illegal orders. Here’s what the law says.”

All of the Democrats – unlike the Orange Turd – have served in the military or worked for U.S. intelligence agencies.

Last week the insane president posted an unhinged rant on “Truth” Social stating that these Democrats should be arrested and put on trial. Days later, the Pentagon announced that it was conducting a review of these allegations against the six Democrats. The one who is at the most peril is Kelly who may be recalled to active-duty status for “court-martial proceedings or administrative measures.” The drunkard who is U.S. Secretary of “War,” Pete Hegseth, later said that Kelly was the only lawmaker who falls under Pentagon jurisdiction since the others either worked for the CIA or didn’t retire from the military.

The other five lawmakers said today that the FBI had notified them of an inquiry.

Despite this threat to their liberty posed by this vengeance-ridden president, they have stood by their statement and condemned Grump for posting such garbage against them, and for now being exposed to more threats of violence against them. The six Democrats argue the video’s goal was to bring attention to some uses of the military floated by Drumpf over the years that they view as illegal, like his 2016 assertion to kill the families of terrorists or his threat – still legally contested – to send troops to Chicago.

In the meantime, Hegseth has argued that the video “sows doubt and confusion – which only puts our warriors in danger.”

Dump consistently referred to the lawmakers’ statement as “seditious behavior,” even though he himself engaged in truly seditious behavior on January 6, 2021. This will not be raised in light of the president’s declining cognitive faculties.

Many experts when interviewed all stated that this is nonsense and these lawmakers could not be prosecuted for expressing First Amendment rights when releasing the video. Naturally, this corrupt regime feels the criminal in chief has not issued illegal orders, which is laughable, considering how downright illegal they truly are.

One critic of the president’s allegation here is George Washington University law professor Laura Dickinson who said the Democrats appeared to be correct on the law. She said that members of the military must follow legal orders, but they aren’t required to follow unlawful ones, and in certain cases when orders are “manifestly unlawful,” they are required to disobey them. Other legal experts point to the fact that the six Democrats encouraged service members to refuse to follow “illegal” orders – not lawful ones.

With this latest outrage from this president, wouldn’t you say this is enough drama and outrageousness coming out of this administration? We have to actually endure this nonsense for the next three and a half years? Boy, how will we have the stamina to withstand this daily barrage of absurdity coming out of the worst administration ever in the White House?

I’m now hearing a great video from veterans who have come out attacking this stupid president and are vigorously defending Senator Mark Kelly who is a distinguished and decorated war hero. Kelly himself has said he’s not intimidated by this campaign of terror by this regime. I still say that Grump is doing this to continue to deflect from not releasing the Epstein files. Don’t be fooled by this distraction!

Today Elliot and I had a 1 o’clock appointment with our Subaru service department to get our car serviced after 6,000 miles (the mileage was much less than this when we brought it in) and to get a new state inspection sticker. We left around 12:10 and got to Woodside a little before 12:30. The manager said he could take us even though we were about a half hour early. We left the car in the front of the maintenance floor and I walked into the office to sign a release form. The manager – whose name was “Clifford” – said the car could be ready in an hour or 90 minutes and that he would text me when it was ready, so I decided to walk to Jax Inn Diner for some lunch, while Elliot was content to sit in the waiting room.

The service department was on 57th Street, and I had to walk to 73rd Street where the diner was located, so it was quite a walk. This represents a 16-block walk. I could see why Elliot preferred to stay behind. I was happy to finally see the awning that fronted the diner ahead of me.

As I was eating my tuna salad melt, I did get a text before 1:30 stating that the car was indeed ready, so I asked my server to pack the uneaten part of the meal so that I could rush back to the Subaru service station. I did return a little after 1:30 and all I had to do was wait for the car to be driven to us by Clifford. The only charge I had to pay was $10 for the inspection, which was quite nice.

We then drove home where Elliot left the vehicle to run some errands and I called my good friend “Harold” after parking the car in front of our building. We spoke so long together on the phone (over an hour) that I was able to catch Elliot walking down the block toward the building. He had finished whatever he was doing. I then finished my conversation with Harold and wished him a happy Thanksgiving.

And so it went!
