"President Trump directed the Justice Department to investigate me, arrest me, and hang me simply for doing my job. Today an American grand jury honored our Constitution by standing up to an outrageous abuse of presidential power and taxpayer dollars. No matter the threats, I will keep doing my job and upholding my oath to our Constitution."
"at the direction of President Trump, who said repeatedly that I should be investigated, arrested, and hanged for sedition,"
"SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR, punishable by DEATH"
A D.C. grand jury declined to indict multiple Democrats after prosecutors sought charges connected to a video that reminded military and intelligence communities that no one has to carry out orders that violate the law or the Constitution. Former President Donald Trump previously accused the lawmakers of "SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR, punishable by DEATH." U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro's office failed to secure an indictment. Senator Mark Kelly called the indictment bid an outrageous abuse of power while contesting a separate effort to reduce his retired Navy rank. Representatives Goodlander and Slotkin criticized perceived weaponization of the justice system and praised the grand jury outcome.
