"The US House of Representatives has passed a resolution to formally proceed with the impeachment inquiry against President Donald Trump.
The measure details how the inquiry will move into a more public phase. It was not a vote on whether the president should be removed from office.
This was the first test of support in the Democratic-controlled House for the impeachment process.
The White House condemned the vote, which passed along party lines.
Only two Democrats - representing districts that Mr Trump won handily in 2016 - voted against the resolution, along with all Republicans, for a total count of 232 in favour and 196 against."

What if there is an internal divide between the "chain of command" crowd and the "unconstitutional orders" crowd?
Young people won't believe you if you say you used to get Netflix by US Postal Mail.

Every last service member is told multiple times in boot camp that following an illegal order will most certainly land their ass in hot water as well as the person who gave it. That completely aside, the type of folks who enlist aren't there because they looooove following orders. They mostly enlist because they love their country, so ordering them to seriously fuck it up will never, ever fly.
My rights don't end where your fear begins.
