Thank you. That hits my ears in a. An important way since I made a 90 second video with Senator Kelly I met that said Uniform military has a requirement to refuse illegal orders. and because of that, they attempted to criminally indict us in front of a grand jury for sedition. So I appreciate the ease with which you say just what should be a very standard thing. (02:16–02:21)
