I don't think I ever heard a President say the word "Treason" before. Personally, I think it' s "just" Sedition.

I too am really happy with the definition of sedition for basically EVERYTHING that's been going on. Not that I'm happy with the circumstances, nor with nobody even getting arrested for it.

That is the worse part. And the media covering up, AND hiring those responsible,

I've been discussing Treason vs Sedition back and forth with people and apparently for Treason you need to be at war and the traitor actively working for the enemy. But there is no doubt this is the worse political act in US history. It's the kind that should have mobs with pitchforks and ropes.

I was thinking about people who support domestic terrorists like Antifa and BLM... That could easily be treason.

But the Ukraine angle is interesting; if Comey and the rest were attempting a coup to protect their interest in Ukrainian shenanigans and Russian Uranium one this could be the treason angle. The involvement of a foreign power.

I've been discussing Treason vs Sedition on and off with people around here. Apparently you need to be at war with an enemy for treason to apply, but I'm no lawyer. This is the worse political scandal in American history; there should be mobs with pitchforks and ropes over this.
