You're correct. This *was* always something different. This was, and continues to be, an outright act of war against the Constitution, or in the words of said documant, "waging war on the United States".
Those words define a specific unlawful act, with a specific name. That name is *TREASON*. It is Treason as defined by the Constitution, and should be treated as such, by anyone who took in good faith, the oath sworn by any Federal emloyee.
Rest assured that at least one such does view the whole mess in this light, myself...
