Congressional Democrats, including Senator Alyssa Slotkin (D-MI), report a surge in threats following President Trump's accusations of sedition.

Six lawmakers, all military veterans, posted a video encouraging military members not to follow illegal orders. Senator Slotkin stated she received nearly 1,000 new threats. The White House maintains the president has not issued illegal orders and labels the Democrats' message as dangerous. This situation highlights concerns about the safety of elected officials and the rhetoric surrounding military conduct.
