The Trump administration’s attempt to punish six Democratic lawmakers for urging members of the military and intelligence communities to disobey unlawful orders has failed.
Three sources familiar with the matter told NBC News that the Department of Justice failed to secure indictments in connection with the video, which featured six Democrats. The New York Times cited four sources.
The lawmakers featured in the video included Senators Mark Kelly and Elissa Slotkin and Representatives Chris Deluzio, Chrissy Houlahan, Jason Crow and Maggie Goodlander. It is unclear how many of the lawmakers were targeted in the indictment, which was sought by U.S. Attorney for D.C. Janine Pirro’s office.
