Good luck there. No recent American traitor has been hanged. Can’t even think of the last one.

Too true. Maybe it’s time a few were?

I don’t think there has been a execution for treason in the US since the Civil War. There have been convictions for treason, and at least one life sentence, but several traitors got as little as ten years. Espionage is treated more seriously.

Members of the public don’t get to define ‘making war’ or ‘treason’.
