What about the exchange between Lindsey Graham and Kavanaugh? If you collaborate with the enemy against the US you can be treated as an enemy combatant and be held accountable by the military.
The status of an “enemy combatant” is an extraordinary legal status created by the GWB administration with many unique features, but it doesn’t have much to do with the jurisdiction of the UCMJ. When enemy combatants have been put on trial (even those held at Guantanamo for extended periods), it’s been in normal federal district courts.
