That’s what everyone was saying before the presidential election, and then the mid terms. People keep predicting he will go after the cabal after this and after that, yet nothing happens. The reality is that Rod is basically leaving on his own terms and will probably never be held accountable.

Correct assessment.

First, I think it is prudent for us to reexamine the difference between Treason and Sedition.

Treason in the US Constitution is narrowly defined, because that's what the Founders wanted. In the history of Europe, Treason was whatever "the Crown" or the ruling parties said it was, and those charged with Treason were usually tortured to death in the most horrible way possible.

Article III, Section 3:

"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. The Congress shall have power to declare the punishment of treason, but no attainder of treason shall work corruption of blood, or forfeiture except during the life of the person attainted.

18 U.S. Code § 2381. Treason

Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death, or shall be imprisoned not less than five years and fined under this title but not less than $10,000; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States.

I am not a lawyer, but I have read that most lawyers and Constitutional scholars agree that Treason, as defined in the Constitution and current US Code must involve working with foreign power.

Sedition, on the other hand, is working against one's own country and government, but does not involve a foreign state in attempting the coup or overthrow.

Treason and sedition are terms that are similar in nature and are applied to cases wherein individuals or organizations have acted in defiance of established authorities. Sedition laws have always been in place to allow governments to take coercive action against acts of defiance that are meant to overthrow them. Treason involves acting against the interests of a state and thus confuses many as to whether they should use treason or sedition in a particular context. The key difference between sedition and treason is that the sedition is a crime against one’s own state, and so is treason, but treason is considered far more serious crime than sedition.

That brings us to this: did Obama, Comey, McCabe, Ohr, Rice, Powers, Jarrett, Clapper, Brennan, Hillary, Priestap, Yates, Lynch, Holder, Reid, Rosenstein, and all the rest commit Treason?

I believe that answer is yes, because their seditious acts also involved foreign governments in their attempted overthrow of the US President and his administration.

The cabal used 5 Eyes (4 foreign governments) to conduct illegal wiretaps, surveillance, planting of evidence, and a host of other crimes in their scheme to frame and take down President Trump. To get around US Law, they used these foreign governments to aid in an attempted coup.

That makes it Treason.

President Trump re-tweeted this meme months ago:

So, where are the arrests?

You are correct, in that Rod Rosenstein, who twice told McCabe he would "wear a wire" in an attempt to entrap the President of the United States is today, the Assistance Attorney General of the United States.

Let's all let that sink in.

I have been waiting for arrests for years, just like most of you. And.............................................nothing.

Perhaps, this time, they are "just around the corner", however, I won't bet the bank on that prospect. To paraphrase Gus McCrae from Lonesome Dove, our government and our Dept of Justice is "Too leaky a vessel for anybody to put much hope in."

Moreover, I have read all the recent Q drop. Q is telling (and re-telling) everyone things we already know or have known. FISA, the corrupt media, Illegals "voting", vote fraud, the attempted coup, etc., etc., and etc.

Gee, thanks Q. We knew all that.

When are the arrests? "Midterms are safe." No, they weren't. "Are you ready for arrests!?" (rhetorical question asked by Q last summer). Yes Q, we were ready for arrests months ago. Where are they?

The fact that vote fraud stole many Congressional seats last November, and nothing has been done should teach us that despite all the rhetoric about justice, the Deep State can still win major battles without consequences.

If tomorrow, there are massive arrests, and scores of these traitors are hauled onto C-17s and C-130s bound for GITMO and military trials, we would all cheer.

But I won't put too much hope into a leaky vessel.

Treason is encouraged. We have a long way to go down further, before this elevator reaches the bargain basement. Rough Ride ahead.

“If I go down, I am taking everybody else with me.”

Keep talking McCabe. Sing like a bird.

There will never be any arrests despite this easily being the biggest scandal in American history. And without accountability and punishment we are virtually guaranteed to see a repeat of such treasonous activity again. Except next time it may well be successful.

Hell, we can’t even get the FISA docs declassified. Something is terribly rotten in the state. A leaky ship indeed!

Since the Five Eyes are officially allies, it is arguable - but definitely sedition.

Personally, I think the Uranium One conspiracy was more likely treasonous, and inherently tied to the sedition.

In less than 45 minutes (in CA) Andy McCabe is gonna be on the colbert late nite show
It may be worth watching to see if McCabe exposes some more shady dealings he has been a part of
Hopefully he will hang himself on his own petard

Oh and thanks for the good facts, research
