I am getting VERY tired of security and defense “leaks”
especially those that give away battle plans ahead of time
as they directly endanger our soldier/flyer/sailors’ lives
how to put an end to these (potentially very dangerous) leaks?
treason is a capital crime I believe. maybe we need a couple of convictions to get the message across to the rest of the leakers? including those in the commie/nazi/progressive media
I do not believe prosecution for treason is possible given the very narrow definition in the constitution.
To be convicted, you have to levy war against the States or adhere to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort.
Since the reason this crime was defined in the Constitution to begin with was the abuse of treason under the British monarchy, it can’t be true that “their enemies” is a subjective matter for the Executive to decide, since the next Obama could declare that posting on conservative websites made you an enemy of the States.
I do not believe there has been a treason prosecution without a state of war declared by Congress. Jefferson Davis was not charged with treason. Alger Hiss was not charged with treason. The Rosenbergs were not charged with treason. Even Jane Fonda was not charged with treason.
