I was shocked to learn that sedition is not a death penalty crime:

US Code 18:

If two or more persons in any State or Territory, or in any place subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, conspire to overthrow, put down, or to destroy by force the Government of the United States, or to levy war against them, or to oppose by force the authority thereof, or by force to prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law of the United States, or by force to seize, take, or possess any property of the United States contrary to the authority thereof, they shall each be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both.

So, what is the meaning of this clause found in the U.S. Code?

A person who is found guilty of attempted mutiny, mutiny, sedition, or failure to suppress or report a mutiny or sedition shall be punished by death or such other punishment as a court-martial may direct.

It is also treason too and it is punishable by death:

"..they shall each be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both."

I believe producing a fake information and applying for a FISA warrant may be sedition. But it’s been 16 months since we knew the facts and nada.
