1. Inversión Autoritaria y Obediencia Ilegal.
El núcleo de la controversia es la amenaza de corte marcial a un capitán retirado de la marina por recordar a las tropas su obligación legal de rechazar órdenes ilegales, lo que se interpreta como una señal de que en el "mundo Trump", la obediencia a un poder ilegal es patriotismo, y seguir la constitución es un crimen.
- This is pure authoritarian inversion a senator and retired navy captain is threatened with court-martial for reminding troops of the lawthat they must refuse unlawful orders. In trump-world, obedience to illegal power is patriotism, and following the constitution is now a crime.
- Trumps considering illegal orders, pushing our military to the brink! this is an unacceptable abuse of power that we cannot ignore. Standupforjustice protectourtroops noillegalorders accountability.
- This is a chilling attempt to redefine patriotism as blind loyalty. The right is twisting a basic constitutional principlethat troops must refuse illegal orders into treason. This isnt just political theater its laying the groundwork to dismantle a crucial check on presidential power.
2. El Juramento a la Constitución vs. Lealtad Personal.
Se enfatiza que el juramento militar es defender la Constitución, no a un individuo, y que la reacción airada del presidente a los recordatorios sobre este deber subraya su deseo de poder absoluto.
- The military takes an oath to defend the constitution. They specifically are not required to obey illegal orders given by a corrupt, senile autocrat who is falling from power and desperately trying to hang on.
- Trump demands the arrest of lawmakers who told the military not to follow illegal orders and shares replies calling for them to be hanged. Loyalty to him, not the constitution, is now the only law that matters. Absolute power, zero judgment. X.commeidastouch.
- He keeps insisting that his orders outrank the constitution. A presidents power isnt unlimited. The military swears an oath to the constitution, not to a man. The fact that he still doesnt understand that is exactly why hes dangerous.
3. Uso Ilegal de la Guardia Nacional y Consecuencias.
La presencia de tropas de la Guardia Nacional en ciudades estadounidenses, a menudo sin justificación legal o de seguridad, es vista como una demostración de poder y un abuso que pone en peligro al personal militar.
- Trump shouldnt have the power to use the military for his protection at their loss ot life. He incited the crazy fn supporters who will do what is asked of trump. Besides, he violated a court order, illegal for the national guardsmen to be present in dc, and violated it again by sending 500 more.
- Illegal deployment of national guard troops resulted in death and trumps response is to add 500 more. He wanted a reason to militarize our cities. He created the fire that he will gleefully pour gasoline on. He is the enemy from within and must be held accountable. To him immunity ultimate power.
- Two national guard members were shot near the white house. Well, shit! i fear this might give trump a reason to test drive the insurrection act. .and unchecked power is objectively bad when a fascist has control of a constitutional republic from .com.
4. Amenazas y Criminalización de la Disidencia.
La reacción del presidente, que incluye amenazas de arresto y muerte contra opositores políticos por recordar a las fuerzas armadas sus deberes legales, es catalogada como un comportamiento tiránico y un ataque directo al estado de derecho.
- He needs to be removed from office. Hes a traitor. Calling for the arrest and death of political opponents is unacceptable. Was j6 not enough of a warning of what lengths hell go to in order to keep power? all because armed services were reminded of their obligation to not follow illegal orders.
- Its absolutely unacceptable for trump to threaten to arrest and execute vets who tell our armed forces to disobey illegal orders. Trump doesnt give a damn about whats right or wrong. Do as he says or face arrest and execution. Trump should be removed from power now !!
- Trumps claim that encouraging service members to disobey illegal orders is seditious is less an american legal reality than it is the political ideology of despotic medieval kings bent on absolute power.
5. El Deber de Desobedecer Órdenes Ilegales.
Veteranos y expertos legales reafirman que el Código Uniforme de Justicia Militar (UCMJ) y el juramento exigen explícitamente que los miembros de las fuerzas armadas desobedezcan órdenes que violen la Constitución o la ley.
- As an army veteran, my oath explicitly allowed me to disobey illegal orders, even from my superiors, something that was clearly explained to me. Sedition is storming the seat of power trying to stop a constitutionally mandated process.
- The ucmj says that disobeying unlawful orders is a necessity to keep power from evil leaders! if trump or miller had served they would know that!
- More power to the 6who are trying to protect not only military personnel, but american citizens with their admonishment no military person should follow illegal orders! of course this is not seditious, this is what they swore an oath to, protect the constitution not being ordered to commit crimes!
