Donald Trump has rocked American politics again with a chilling threat. On November 20, 2025, the ex-president unleashed a fiery rant on Truth Social, accusing six leading Democrats of “seditious behaviour” — and demanded they face the death penalty. His furious salvo targeted lawmakers urging military personnel to defy what they call illegal orders.

“Each one of these traitors to our Country should be ARRESTED AND PUT ON TRIAL,” Trump thundered. “SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOUR, punishable by DEATH!” His supporters quickly erupted with chants of “Lock them up!” and even calls for hanging, invoking George Washington to back their demands.
Who’s on Trump’s Execution Hit List?
- Senator Mark Kelly (Navy veteran, Arizona)
- Senator Elissa Slotkin (ex-CIA analyst, Michigan)
- Rep. Chrissy Houlahan (Air Force pilot, Pennsylvania)
- Rep. Chris Deluzio (Navy JAG officer, Pennsylvania)
- Rep. Maggie Goodlander (Navy intelligence, New Hampshire)
- Rep. Jason Crow (Army Ranger, Colorado)
All six are veterans or intelligence insiders featured in a stark 80-second video urging troops to obey only lawful commands. The clip is viewed as a direct rebuke to Trump amid his fiery troop deployments and claims of “enemies within” the US military ranks.
White House Backs Trump’s Hardline Threats
In a stunning twist, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt sided with Trump, accusing Democrats of trying to “pit the armed forces against the American people” by encouraging military insubordination. Meanwhile, Trump’s social feeds exploded with posts branding Democrats “Traitors!” and demanding they be locked up.
Donald Trump: “It’s called SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR AT THE HIGHEST LEVEL. Each one of these traitors to our Country should be ARRESTED AND PUT ON TRIAL. SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR, punishable by DEATH!”
Democrats Fight Back: ‘Threats and Intimidation’
Senator Elissa Slotkin shot back with a viral video condemning Trump’s death threats — already viewed over 100,000 times. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer slammed the attacks as “reckless” and a direct threat that “erodes democracy.” House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries called them “dangerous threats” against elected officials doing their job.
