Washington Week with The Atlantic

Trump's 'seditious behavior' accusation against Democrats

Season 2025 Episode 47 | 7m 49s

In ordinary times, a reminder to America’s men and women in uniform that it is their responsibility to disobey illegal orders would pass without much comment from anyone. But when six Democratic lawmakers, all veterans of the military and intelligence agencies, issued this general reminder, President Trump accused them of sedition and suggested that they be executed.

Major funding for “Washington Week with The Atlantic” is provided by Consumer Cellular, Otsuka, Kaiser Permanente, the Yuen Foundation, and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.
