Trump advisor Stephen Miller has taken a strong stance against what he calls the “Seditious Six,” a group of Democrats who urged military personnel to resist orders from President Trump. In a recent appearance on Fox News, Miller expressed his outrage over comments made by Senators Elissa Slotkin and Mark Kelly, along with House Representatives Maggie Goodlander, Jason Crow, Chris Deluzio, and Chrissy Houlahan. They were filmed stating, “You can refuse illegal orders,” a message Miller finds highly concerning.
Miller argues that this kind of rhetoric is not just irresponsible but dangerous. “They should be held accountable under the law and under the Uniform Code of Military Justice for a seditious conspiracy against the United States of America,” he stated with conviction. His call for accountability underscores the seriousness of his claims. He sees the actions of these lawmakers as a blatant attempt to undermine military authority.
According to Miller, the language used by the Seditious Six is reminiscent of tactics used to incite unrest. He said, “What is the motivation? For what purpose would you ever deliver this message? It’s to create a Color Revolution. It’s the CIA playbook for trying to foment insurrection within the military.” His choice of words reflects a deep concern about the implications of such statements. Miller believes that encouraging military personnel to defy orders ultimately endangers lives. He recalled a recent incident where members of the Armed Forces celebrated the assassination of a public figure, raising alarm over the potential for rhetoric to incite violence.
Miller’s remarks come in the wake of President Trump calling for the lawmakers involved in the viral video to face severe repercussions. Trump, via Truth Social, proclaimed, “SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR, punishable by DEATH!” The gravity of those words is matched by a developing investigation; the FBI has launched an inquiry into the actions of the Seditious Six, with court-martial proceedings possibly looming for Senator Kelly, whose comments struck a particular chord with both Miller and Trump.
As Miller concluded, the implications of the Seditious Six’s statements are clear: they imply a refusal to recognize military hierarchy and authority. “That kind of language can get people killed!” he warned, highlighting a pressing concern for national stability and safety. The ongoing tension reflects a deeper divide in American politics and raises critical questions about loyalty, authority, and the rule of law within the military ranks.
