Army Doctrine Publication 6-22 (Army Leadership and the Profession) says to disobey unlawful orders.

Good WSJ commentary from an intel firm. Identifies a diagnostic indicator of change. Explains why it’s important. Tells where to look for it in collection. Explains what collection has taken place. IDs potential impacts.

Trump signs an executive order tasking Hegseth to establish "specialised units" within the National Guard to "deal with public order issues" across the US.
