Disobeying illegal orders cannot be sedition. The Uniform Code of Military Justice, article 92, requires service members to follow LAWFUL orders. If an order is illegal, they have a duty to DISOBEY. Obeying an illegal order can result in criminal liability.

Behind this important reversal is a member of the Coast Guard who saw what was happening and had the courage to leak it to the press. That person deserves serious praise.

To put a finer point on it: An "illegal order" is one that violates their oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States. If you think that upholding the Constitution = sedition, well...you do the math.

The truth is simple—justice for survivors is not a partisan issue. For decades, the justice system has failed those abused by Epstein and his associates. Congress has a responsibility to pursue truth, justice, and accountability—wherever that leads. And, we must ensure this never happens again.
