ALBAWABA - US President Donald Trump took to Truth Social with an AI-generated video putting the 6 Congressional Democrats in jail after they dropped a clip urging US service members to defy "illegal" orders by Trump.
The AI video reshared by Trump featured Congressional Democrats Mark Kelly, Elissa Slotkin, Jason Crow, Mikie Sherrill, Abigail Spanberger, and Seth Moulton. Several of them were wearing prison clothes as bars dropped on them as curtains in a play.
The US President accused the 6 Congressional Democrats of sedition in two consecutive posts on Truth Social, further describing them as traitors.

He wrote in the Truth Social posts, "THE TRAITORS THAT TOLD THE MILITARY TO DISOBEY MY ORDERS SHOULD BE IN JAIL RIGHT NOW, NOT ROAMING THE FAKE NEWS NETWORKS TRYING TO EXPLAIN THAT WHAT THEY SAID WAS OK. IT WASN’T, AND NEVER WILL BE!"
He added, "IT WAS SEDITION AT THE HIGHEST LEVEL, AND SEDITION IS A MAJOR CRIME. THERE CAN BE NO OTHER INTERPRETATION OF WHAT THEY SAID!"
This all comes after the Congressional Democrats posted a video telling US service members to "refuse illegal orders," and that "No one has to carry out orders that violate the law or our constitution."
Trump later posted an addendum and wrote, "SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR, punishable by DEATH!"
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt issued a response retracting Trump's statement regarding their execution when a reporter asked her. However, she outlined further that he wants to see them held accountable for their actions.
Democratic Senator Chris Murphy told NBC News, "This is perhaps the most reckless and irresponsible thing he's [Trump] has done in all Congress, and it's going to get a lot of us killed... We have kids."
NBC News also reported that Democratic US Senator Elissa Slotkin, who appears in the video, has received a thousand threats and has been forced to have 24/7 security.
