Senator Mark Kelly and five other Democratic lawmakers—all former military —recently released a video urging U.S. troops to disobey orders from their new commander-in-chief, President Trump, if those orders “appear unlawful.”

This amounted to a direct assault on the chain of command.

And then: Trump announced all executive actions, pardons, and orders signed by Joe Biden’s autopen were null and void. It lands like a counterpunch in the broader fight inside the government over who actually wields authority.

It’s not just coincidence.

The Seditious Six exposed the extent to which entrenched bureaucrats and their allies are willing to undermine a duly elected president. The autopen enabled unelected staffers to mimic Biden’s signature and push through actions without accountability.

By wiping that autopen slate clean, Trump is signaling that the shadow-government games are over.

If this strategy succeeds, it could restore the people's mandate.

President Trump and Pete Hegseth are ready for this fight.

Let’s hope Pam Bondi is, too.
