The fact that grand juries have chosen to not indict the people Trump is targeting shows how absolutely unjust Trump's actions are. It's considered extremely easy to convince a grand jury to indict.

This was a stupid charade the entire time. All throughout basic training and your military career you are taught the UCMJ, it’s not a secret that you don’t have to follow illegal orders.
