A federal grand jury has rejected the Trump regime’s attempt to indict six Democratic members of Congress for posting a video reminding service members of their oath and their duty to refuse illegal orders.

In a dramatic turn, a federal grand jury has reportedly refused to indict six Democratic members of Congress after an effort was made to charge them over a video message directed at U.S. service members.

The lawmakers had posted a video reminding troops of their oath to the Constitution — emphasizing that members of the military have a duty to refuse unlawful or illegal orders.
Now, the grand jury’s decision effectively shuts down the attempt to bring criminal charges.
🔎 What This Means:
👉 A grand jury must agree there is sufficient evidence to move forward with an indictment. In this case, they declined.
👉 The decision underscores the high legal bar required to criminally charge elected officials for speech-related actions.
👉 It also reignites debate over free speech, civilian control of the military, and the limits of political messaging.
Supporters of the lawmakers argue they were simply reiterating established military law — that service members swear allegiance to the Constitution, not to any individual leader. Critics had claimed the video crossed legal or ethical lines.
For now, the legal effort to prosecute them has stalled.
