Even AI knows better:

Treason is the betrayal of one's country, specifically by waging war against it or aiding its enemies, and requires two eyewitnesses to the same overt act for conviction in the U.S..

In the United States, Article III, Section 3 of the Constitution defines it as only these two specific actions:

levying war against the U.S. or

adhering to its enemies, giving them aid and comfort.

Key Aspects of Treason

Allegiance: Treason involves an act committed by someone who owes allegiance to their native country.

Overt Acts: Treason requires the commission of overt acts, which are actions that are visible and manifest, rather than just a thought or intention.

Proof: In the U.S., to prove treason, there must be testimony from two witnesses to the same overt act, or a confession in open court.

Yes, treason is punishable by death in the U.S. under federal law, though it can also carry a sentence of imprisonment, a fine, or both.

The Constitution allows Congress to define the punishment for treason, and 18 U.S. Code § 2381 outlines the potential penalties, which include death, or imprisonment for no less than five years, and a fine of at least $10,000
