Nice! Supporting mutiny, a military overthrow of civil government and treason against the Constitutional order. Some conservative!

No; not hardly. DEFENDING the U.S. constitution against enemies from within, [the *domestic enemies* named in our oath] both those who adhere to our enemies, and those who would destroy the Constitutional provisions by constant abrasion and dimunition is hardly the Treason defined in the constitution. Those in civil government who fit that description have lost their legitimate authority by their perjury of their own oaths to the constitution, but lessons of history suggest that they will have their fingers burned when they overrreach.



Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying war against them, or in adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort. No person shall be convicted of treason unless on the testimony of two witnesses to the same overt act, or on confession in open court. --U.S. Constitution, Article III, Section 3
