I don’t think you understand the concept of “Levying War” . lol

Ah, but it's the states that the levying of war applies to which makes for treason, not the federal government — notice the plural 'them' instead of the singular 'it' which would be used in talking of a single entity. It is firmly established that DC is not a state, therefore levying war upon it cannot be treason unless it "gives aid and comfort" to the enemies of the several states.

Given that the federal government has moved to be in a position where it denies the states almost all sovereignty (read the dissenting opinions of the SB 1070 case) and looks to be open to assisting in an invasion (termed 'amnesty' or 'immigration reform') it could well be argued that the federal government is itself such an enemy of the several states.
