DOJ seeks interviews with Democrats in probe of 'illegal orders' video

DOJ has asked at least four Democratic lawmakers to be interviewed as part of its probe into a controversial video urging service members and intelligence officials to disobey illegal orders; the FBI had previously contacted the Senate and House sergeants-at-arms to schedule interviews with six lawmakers in the clip, including Sen. Elissa Slotkin and Reps. Jason Crow, Maggie Goodlander, and Chrissy Houlahan. The precise crime under investigation hasn’t been disclosed, though Trump has labeled it sedition, while the lawmakers say they were merely restating the law. Slotkin also described facing bomb threats and other intimidation since the video’s release.
