When the Left tried to steal an election from Lincoln they were charged with treason as it was considered an act of war against the Republic. They were sentenced to be executed but Lincoln stupidly (imo) had the sentences commuted to life in prison. But it was definitely considered an act of treason.
I just found something about it. Apparently they tried to use mail in ballots, pretty ironic. Iill read a bit more but from all the reading today the charge of treason has gone through some refining over the years and has become more limited than it once was
heres a snippet and a link to an informative page :
"The Constitution specifically identifies what constitutes treason against the United States and, importantly, limits the offense of treason to only two types of conduct: (1) “levying war” against the United States; or (2) “adhering to [the] enemies [of the United States], giving them aid and comfort.” Although there have not been many treason prosecutions in American history—indeed, only one person has been indicted for treason since 1954—the Supreme Court has had occasion to further define what each type of treason entails."
"I just found something about it. Apparently they tried to use mail in ballots, pretty ironic."
Haha I know, and apparently they used the old forged signature trick as well. These people never change!
As far as Constitution requirements for treason, there are all sorts of ways you can levy war against a nation - psychological subversion, economically etc. Doesn't have to be armed physical confrontation. These people are always saying they want to destroy the US (and muh capitalism) which is essentially undermining and engaging in war against the State. Adhering to the enemies of the US well you could make an argument that working with socialist nations around the world who want to see world communism are enemies of the US even if no war has been declared.
If that Chinese defector has info on people selling state secrets and research to China that undermines the US that would be treason and worthy of hanging imo. And I would say China is totally engaged in warfare against the US and the world.
Those leaked vids from China showing people dropping dead in the street from Covid (which happened in no other country) suggests they were deliberately making it seem as if that was going to happen elsewhere causing world economies to shutdown which is definitely considered an act of war, and they must have been working with people in the West who promoted this a likely (so-called experts and media).
Bastards are planning to keep it going into Winter lockdowns, but the Dong guy might just save the day. It's significant the DIA wouldn't let the State Department or CIA/FBI know suggesting Chinese assets embedded in the civilian Intelligence community. Some could be charged under the Espionage Act - I think that also carries the death penalty - didn't they execute the Rosenbergs under that Act?
Also don't forget the US is still on a war footing since 9/11 so any acts designed to weaken and subvert the Republic, and working with foreign countries against the US interests would be an attack during a state of war. Rules are different during a state of war.
So we may yet get to see hangings if there are more patriots in the military than 'woke' ones. Here's hoping!

That's interesting I had not heard of that story. Do you have a link to a page about that by chance?
