The crime is against the Congress, and therefore the United States. It is called treason.

I quote from III Sec 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 sale.

"Levying war" pretty accurately describes the FBI raid without the Speaker's approval.

You show up at the Capitol Building and try to break into somebody's office, you will discover the militia (Capitol police) are authorized to shoot you dead.

Such things have happened.
