Tim Sheehy, the Navy SEAL senator, called her out on hypocrisy. He reminded her she’s been pushing the idea that troops should defy orders they think are illegal, yet she was demanding Hegseth blindly follow her line of questioning and admit something damaging.
He basically told her a combat veteran doesn’t need lectures on duty or manhood from someone trying to score political points by undermining the military’s chain of command.
According to the clips, she looked pretty uncomfortable and hid her face while he laid into her double standard.
Last November, Slotkin organized a video with five other Democratic lawmakers who had military or intelligence backgrounds.
They spoke directly to active-duty troops and intelligence officers, telling them the biggest threat to the Constitution right now is coming from inside the country, not abroad.
They said, quote, “You can refuse illegal orders… You must refuse illegal orders. No one has to carry out orders that violate the law or our Constitution.” It came right after concerns about how the Trump administration was using the military domestically. Sheehy and others called it out as trying to undermine the chain of command and encourage troops to second-guess lawful orders from their commander-in-chief.
What Slotkin said was was poor judgment, and from a American standpoint, it’s seen as undermining a Republican president before he even gave an order.
She was reckless and partisan with the troops. Her going against the President shows what level she will go in an attempt to destroy America.

It was a Senate Armed Services Committee hearing this past June. Senator Elissa Slotkin pressed Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on whether he authorized troops sent to Los Angeles to detain or arrest protesters during immigration enforcement actions. She got frustrated with his answers and said, “Be a man, list it out. Did you authorize them to detain or arrest?” Elise Slotkin is a typical liberal lunatic and hated among Michiganders. Her bragging of a CIA background only enhances her image of a participant in corrupt government politics. Hegseth said the troops were there to protect ICE officers doing deportations of people who came in under the previous administration, not to arrest U.S. citizens. The exchange got pretty heated.
