Working with foreign governments to bring down a legitimate president.

Treason, yeah?

Maybe no, maybe yes. Too many derps and too many different things the different derps did to settle on that one charge.

I'd just go tiptoe through Treason, Sedition & Other Assorted DS Games

I'm sure we can find something there that applies to a whole bunch of black hats.

And judging by the flack, a whole bunch of 'em know it.

From the link Unrepentant VN Vet posted:

Seditious conspiracy:

“If two or more persons in any State or Territory, or in any place subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, conspire to overthrow, put down, or to destroy by force the Government of the United States, or to levy war against them, or to oppose by force the authority thereof, or by force to prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law of the United States...”

Location matters:

“...in any State or Territory, or in any place subject to the jurisdiction of the United States...”

That’s why the perps went overseas.

(Digs further ...)

Ok, I hit pay dirt; treason can be committed —anywhere—.

(Separated text for ease of reading)

Treason:

“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,

is guilty of treason and shall suffer death,

or shall be imprisoned not less than five years and fined under this title but not less than $10,000;

and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States. ...”

Thank you, I will look at link.

One thing that is nice - they never thought she would lose. And even when Trump won, they were sure they could bring him down (for some time, anyway).

So - They were very careless! hee hee
