LANSING – Michigan Democrat Sen. Elissa Slotkin posted a video to social media yesterday saying she sent a letter to Attorney General Pam Bondi and lead DOJ lawyer Jeanine Pirro informing them she won’t be complying with an inquiry against her and will refuse to sit down for an interview with them.  In the two and a half minute recording, the Michigan lawmaker explained why she’s deciding to not comply with DOJ bidding, saying it’s a tactic from the Trump administration to get her to be quiet.  The case stems from a video posted back in November by Slotkin and six other Democratic lawmakers telling service members not to obey illegal orders.  The move prompted swift pushback from President Donald Trump, who called for the politicians to be arrested, and investigated.  Slotkin was asked last week where the Department of Justice case against her stands, and she replied it was still ongoing.
