"I think what the president did was classic Donald Trump, Hewitt told Fox's John Roberts. He called attention to a mistake that his political opponents had made. That video was outrageous. It appears to be an appeal to uniformed military to disregard orders that they do not like, or that they believe to be illegal. President Trump has given no illegal orders, he continued."
"So what they were trying to do was stir the pot, and get themselves some fundraising and some attention. And then Donald Trump did what he always does. He raised the ante, called attention to the fact that what they were doing would actually be considered seditious in wartime. Slotkin told journalist Aaron Parnas on Thursday that her office has gotten hundreds and hundreds, if not closer to a thousand, tough threats and messages since the president's post, adding that she's been given 24/7 security."
Hugh Hewitt praised President Donald Trump for a Truth Social post suggesting six Democratic lawmakers were guilty of seditious behavior punishable by death. The targeted lawmakers are veterans: Senators Elissa Slotkin and Mark Kelly and Representatives Jason Crow, Chris Deluzio, Chrissy Houlahan, and Maggie Goodlander. They released a video urging military and intelligence community members to stand up for laws and refuse illegal orders. Hewitt called the video outrageous and said it appeared to appeal to uniformed military to disregard orders while noting Trump has given no illegal orders. Slotkin reported receiving hundreds to near‑thousand threats and has 24/7 security. Trump said he was not threatening death but warned they are in serious trouble.
