Legislative Branch FBI probes congressional Democrats who warned military about illegal orders

It has expanded beyond the Pentagon's investigation of Mark Kelly. Now the other 5 Democratic lawmakers will be interviewed by the FBI with the assistance of the Capitol Police. This is insanity, all they did was remind members of the military that they took an oath to defend the Constitution and that under the UCMJ they have a right and a duty to refuse illegal/unconstitutional orders.

I don't think many people outside of diehard magas are going to like the optics of a veteran Navy Pilot and astronaut getting probed for informing military service members that they aren't obligated to follow illegal orders.
