Major Jason Watson and the Duty to Defy Illegal Orders

Original: Major Jason Watson, Trump, and the Military’s Duty to Defy Illegal Orders

Major Jason Watson is at the center of a debate over whether US service members must refuse unlawful orders, with former President Donald Trump's directives the focus of the discussion. The story raises the long-standing legal principle that military personnel are obligated to disobey commands that violate the law, and it has drawn attention among defense and political commentators.

Why now: Ongoing debate over the limits of military obedience and Trump's influence on the armed forces.
