Note the initials at the end here:

“19 charges. 3 are involved in criminal enterprise and sponsor of terrorism. BHO”

Isn’t sponsoring terrorism treason?

I have observed (casually) many judicial cases in my lifetime. A Military Tribunal for one Barack Hussein Obama would be most interesting. I wonder how that will be written in the academia books? Probably pretty short - How Donald J Trump made be do it!

Over beer, we were talking how- what the firing pattern was going to be - (sequence of events). Remember Q saying the last BOOM was going to be "magical." Double meaning for sure.

-- Isn't sponsoring terrorism treason? --

Treason is defined first in the constitution, and in a non-contentious use, requires the actor be associates with a declared nations state enemy of the United States. The declaration of enemy typically involves a declaration of war or functional equivalent.

Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere ...

Not that this definition couldn't be stretched somewhat. But when an established legal theory (crime in theis case) is stretched, there is a risk a court will find it stretched too far.

See post 1287 for giving material support to a non-nations-state bad actor.
