John Miller: FBI Questioning ‘Seditious Six’ Are Also Probably Obeying an ‘Illegal Order’

EXCERPT:

MILLER: "Well, it‘s really unusual because it is entirely unclear whether any law has been broken here. And if you look at the FBI standards for this, the FBI‘s domestic investigative operations guide, basically the Bureau‘s Bible when it comes to staying on the right side of civil rights and the First Amendment, it says, and I‘m quoting now from the training material that they give at the FBI academy training I had to go through and sign off on, 'No investigative activity, including assessments, may be taken solely on the basis of activities that are protected by the First Amendment.' So, basically, these elected officials saying to members of the military and the intelligence community, 'Don‘t obey any illegal order,' is not just covered by free speech in the First Amendment, it‘s also there quoting the military code of justice. But here‘s the weird part: For the FBI to go and question them, they probably have to obey an illegal order going against FBI policy to do it. We‘re in a political morass here."
