little bit, President Trump, of course, accusing that group of democratic lawmakers of seditious behavior

that he says could be, quote, punishable by death. It's an all-caps claim from the president of the

United States. And it comes after the lawmakers, all of whom served in the military or intelligence

community, served this country. His messages were very clear.

He views anybody who challenges him, who seems to tell people not to listen to him,

to listen to illegal orders of being traitors.

Basically, he has now, it's not the first time he said that people who stand up to him

or who disagree with him are committing treason.

He says that with some regularity.

And he blends the idea of loyalty to him to being loyalty to the state.

It's literally a case where he is saying that these people who are saying don't do anything illegal, that that amounts to sedition.

Saying don't do something illegal amounts to sedition.

Now you'll hear the White House press secretary say, well, that's not what he meant.

You're all getting worked up about things. You're over-interpreting. You're distorting.

And as Senator Jones says, let's assume that that's true.

But there's a discordant message.

And he wants the first message to be out there.

He wants them to think that they are at risk.

He wants to intimidate people by making them think that they would suffer consequences

if they say things that he

doesn't like.

These people are lying through their teeth.
