Treason - What is it?

Treason = angry political enthusiasts screaming into the sky.

2.5 years ago, that’s how racism was defined.

Peacetime enemy? How is that possible?

An enemy, for purposes of the treason clause, is defined as only “subjects of a foreign power in a state of open hostility” towards the U.S. Finally, the crime of treason by aiding an enemy can only be committed during a time of war.

That’s a valid question. Was the Soviet Union our enemy during the cold war? There was no shooting war, and in fact, they were our allies for a time while defeating Nazi Germany, but the level of adversarialism was so intense I think it safe to say we considered them an enemy. The Rosenburgs were executed for treason passing secrets to them.

No they weren’t. They were executed for espionage.

Similarly, that is why the Rosenbergs could not be charged with treason because, at the time, the United States was not at war with the Soviet Union. Espionage provisions typically are the gap-fillers for activities that appear treasonous when the U.S. is not at war.

Oops.

Are you saying Trump is wrong?

You are correct. I was genuinely curious if there were exceptions and I could find none. It can only happen during wartime.

I am well aware of how the charge of treason has been abused throughout history just for the record………….

I’ve already said that.

Im shocked. Bravo!

Anyone accusing Trump of treason is also wrong. CNN and MSNBC have been full of that the last few days.

Liberals, MSM and socialist Democrat lawmakers are using seditious tactics in their resistance, hatred and illness of TDS. President Trump wants to MAGA while Democrats want to drag the country down the Socialist gutter.

The current crop of socialist Democrat lawmakers along with the MSM are indeed enemies of the country. They are blatantly and shamelessly “in our face” 24/7 with their seditious rantings! :angry::face_vomiting:

No it wasn’t. :smirk:

Of course it was.

Of course it wasn’t.

Any and every criticism of Obama was met with howls of “Racist!!!”

Exactly. The same with his wife.

No, you just didn’t get the reference and forced me to build you a Play-Doh model.
