What's an illegal order?

Some "ex" CIA and retired military, including a currently-serving Senator who remains under UCMJ, recently posted an impartial commentary on whether to follow a manifestly illegal order. In short: you can't. That Senator can't, either.

Jim Hoft's site argues that this statement is a (passive-aggressive) leadup toward a "color revolution" - public disorder leading to legal but extraConstitutional régime-change. It might even come from antifa itself: the "Lawyers' Guild". The best counter would be to provide a specific example of an illegal order from this Administration, but the politicians in question don't gonna answer questions from their opponents, so refuse to answer.

I submit that an order to delete data in wartime (as opposed to: classifying it) would be illegal. I further consider deadly and/or debilitating diseases to be a wartime situation. (This blog suggests to formalise it by Constitutional Amendment: to set declarations of disease-emergency under the Senate; but that hasn't yet happened.)

In that light, the decision to delete vaccine data was illegal. The HHS and GAO decision to back up what their Secretary, Kennedy, ordered deleted was correct. Admittedly they did this secretly, but they may not have had a choice.
