But in reality, she is hyper-partisan, voting in lockstep with the democrat mandate to oppose President Trump at every turn.&nbsp; She has voted no on most of the President\u2019s nominations for various Cabinet positions.&nbsp; She voted no on the Big Beautiful Bill.&nbsp; And she repeatedly voted for the Shumer Shutdown, keeping the government closed for a record 43 days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\nhttps:\/\/justfacts.votesmart.org\/candidate\/key-votes\/181080\/elissa-slotkin\/?p=2\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp; Now Slotkin, along with several other democrat members of congress, have gone too far releasing a video, calling on our military and members of the intelligence community, to refuse orders from their Commander in Chief.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\"><div style=\"display: contents;\" >\n\n<div data-mode=\"normal\" data-oembed=\"1\" data-provider=\"youtube\" id=\"arve-youtube-fk9gh3qww4i\" class=\"arve\">\n\t<div class=\"arve-inner\">\n\t\t<div style=\"aspect-ratio:9\/16\" class=\"arve-embed arve-embed--has-aspect-ratio\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"arve-ar\" style=\"padding-top:177.777778%\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t<iframe allow=\"accelerometer &apos;none&apos;;autoplay &apos;none&apos;;bluetooth &apos;none&apos;;browsing-topics &apos;none&apos;;camera &apos;none&apos;;clipboard-read &apos;none&apos;;clipboard-write;display-capture &apos;none&apos;;encrypted-media &apos;none&apos;;gamepad &apos;none&apos;;geolocation &apos;none&apos;;gyroscope &apos;none&apos;;hid &apos;none&apos;;identity-credentials-get &apos;none&apos;;idle-detection &apos;none&apos;;keyboard-map &apos;none&apos;;local-fonts;magnetometer &apos;none&apos;;microphone &apos;none&apos;;midi &apos;none&apos;;otp-credentials &apos;none&apos;;payment &apos;none&apos;;picture-in-picture;publickey-credentials-create &apos;none&apos;;publickey-credentials-get &apos;none&apos;;screen-wake-lock &apos;none&apos;;serial &apos;none&apos;;summarizer &apos;none&apos;;sync-xhr;usb &apos;none&apos;;web-share;window-management &apos;none&apos;;xr-spatial-tracking &apos;none&apos;;\" allowfullscreen=\"\" class=\"arve-iframe fitvidsignore\" credentialless data-arve=\"arve-youtube-fk9gh3qww4i\" data-lenis-prevent=\"\" data-src-no-ap=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/Fk9Gh3qwW4I?feature=oembed&amp;iv_load_policy=3&amp;modestbranding=1&amp;rel=0&amp;autohide=1&amp;playsinline=0&amp;autoplay=0\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"0\" loading=\"lazy\" name=\"\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-presentation allow-popups allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\" scrolling=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/Fk9Gh3qwW4I?feature=oembed&#038;iv_load_policy=3&#038;modestbranding=1&#038;rel=0&#038;autohide=1&#038;playsinline=0&#038;autoplay=0\" title=\"\" width=\"0\"><\/iframe>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t\n\t<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">{\"@context\":\"http:\\\/\\\/schema.org\\\/\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/kgop.org\\\/?p=3300#arve-youtube-fk9gh3qww4i\",\"type\":\"VideoObject\",\"embedURL\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\\\/embed\\\/Fk9Gh3qwW4I?feature=oembed&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&autohide=1&playsinline=0&autoplay=0\"}<\/script>\n\t\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp; This video does nothing but stoke the flames of division.&nbsp; Slotkin likes to tout that she\u2019s a former member of the CIA.&nbsp; As such, she should know better.&nbsp; She should know that our military and intelligence agents work in dangerous situations.&nbsp; They work in a command structure that requires soldiers and officers to follow chain of command.&nbsp; Refusing an order outright could put our soldiers in danger and risk national security.&nbsp; This political stunt has real world ramifications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp; Slotkin claims she did this out of concern for our miliary.&nbsp; But where was her concern for them when she voted to shut down the government, and our military and federal agents weren\u2019t getting paid?&nbsp; She didn\u2019t seem very worried then.&nbsp; And now she admits, the President hasn\u2019t issued any illegal orders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\nhttps:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2025\/11\/23\/michigan-sen-elissa-slotkin-admits-that-trump-has-not-issued-illegal-orders-to-u-s-military\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp; So what is she trying to do?&nbsp; Slotin was sent to Washinton to work for us, not to work against our duly elected President.&nbsp; Slotkin is failing Michigan.&nbsp; The shutdown left a lot of Michigan families struggling to make ends meet.&nbsp; And now this video potentially can put our soldiers and intelligence officials in danger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp; I call on Slotkin to resign as Senator, and the Michigan Republican Party should do the same. &nbsp;Michigan deserves better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp;
