The U.S. attorney’s office in Washington, DC, did not indict six Democratic Congress members, including Senators Elissa Slotkin and Mark Kelly, for a video suggesting military personnel could refuse illegal orders. Kelly criticized the investigation as a political attack orchestrated by Donald Trump, while Slotkin claimed it was a politically motivated effort to silence dissent. The grand jury’s decision not to indict is notable, as such outcomes are rare. The video had previously sparked significant controversy and backlash from the administration, which argued it endangered troops.
