    Just in case anyone is confused.

    https://criminal.findlaw.com/crimina.../sedition.html

    Seditious Conspiracy and Federal Law: The Basics
    The federal law against seditious conspiracy can be found in Title 18 of the U.S. Code (which includes treason, rebellion, and similar offenses), specifically 18 U.S.C. § 2384. According to the statutory definition of sedition, it is a crime for two or more people within the jurisdiction of the United States:

    : To conspire to overthrow or destroy by force the government of the United States or to level war against them;
    : To oppose by force the authority of the United States government; to prevent, hinder, or delay by force the execution of any law of the United States; or
    : To take, seize, or possess by force any property of the United States contrary to the authority thereof.
    I'd say they meet quite literally the bottom 2 of these definitions.

    hes still hedging his bets this could blow up and he can take over and if it doesnt he can try and back away from it.

    "Stand back and stand by" was it?

    CNN just called it an attempted coup by Trump.

    An hour ago, I might have felt like gloating. Right now... I can't even put into words how I feel. I've made myself a stiff drink and am watching with incredulity.

    Supposedly DoD debating the optics of sending uniformed troops into the capital, while armed militia members are freely roaming the halls. Fucking laughable. Do they not see how weak this makes us look?

    Look back at what they did for BLM protest... this is highlighting the exact problem they protested.
