TL, DR — plus, irritation if we debate this. Minds made up both ways, and I am postive I have exhausted the argument on my side. In short, this side rests.

The defense rests.

No closing arguments.

How robust is the legal distinction between sedition vs treason?

How critical, legally, is the DEGREE of survival being seriously at risk?

Given various actions by various Presidents over the decades . . . e.g. Lincoln, FDR et al . . . doing administrative actions not strictly Constitutional and getting away with it i.e. their actions stuck and they did not get in any legal trouble--what is the potential for THAT kind of action vis a vis military tribunals?

I'm doubtful POTUS would take THAT route but it is conceivable.
