According to a report by Breitbarts Elizabeth Sheld, eight Democrat lawmakers have proposed a bill that would eliminate the death penalty as a consequence for individuals convicted of numerous federal crimes, among them espionage and treason. Nothing happens in Washington without a reason, so The Federal Death Penalty Abolition Act (HR 3741) gives rise to a bevy of questions and suspicions.
What motivation would congressional Democrats have for wishing to neutralize the death penalty option for such serious crimes? While the average news consumer is conditioned to summarily dismiss the machinations of government unless it directly impacts their pocketbook, or their sensibilities are deliberately targeted by the press, common sense dictates that elected officials proposing such a law could be anticipating the requisite conditions, thus necessitating the law in the first place. So, who do these lawmakers suppose might be tried for treason, espionage, or the host of other federal crimes now punishable by death in the not-so-distant future? Well, take your pick. President Obama himself committed a treasonable offense in supplying military aid to rebels fighting against the Assad regime in Syria, first clandestinely and then overtly after circumventing laws expressly prohibiting same. What other treasonable offenses he may have committed attendant to this process (including those related to the 9/11/12 attack on the Benghazi compound) remains to be seen.
Obamas insinuation of Muslim Brotherhood operatives into sensitive government positions, as well as actions pursuant to his relationship with them are likely treasonable offenses. Despite the Muslim Brotherhoods intended goal in subjugating America and the rest of the globe, the only reason that this has not been an issue of contention is because Obama and his surrogates themselves do not wish it to be, the press has been complicit, and the Republican leadership are invertebrates. Then, there are the recent reports coming out of the Middle East as represented by former Muslim Brotherhood member Walid Shoebat. According to Naglaa Mahmoud, wife of Egypts ousted President Mohammed Morsi and Muslim Sisterhood operative, Bill and Hillary Clinton (with an emphasis on Hillary) have been deeply involved with the Brotherhood since the 1980s. Mahmoud has been implicated in Egypt in anti-government operations dedicated to returning her husband to power; he remains in Egyptian custody. Mahmoud recently appeared on Turkish television network Mehwar TV and alleged that the Clintons recruited her and her husband in the 1980s toward the end of advancing everything from Green initiatives in the West to the ascendancy of the Muslim Brotherhood in the Middle East. Hillary Clintons Girl Friday just happens to be Huma Abedin (her Deputy Chief of Staff when she was Secretary of State), whose mother is a colleague of Mahmouds and a long-time leader in the Muslim Sisterhood. Oddly enough, one of the few topics that Mahmoud refuses to discuss is Abedin. According to Shoebat, In December of 2011, Abedin went on maternity leave. She returned in June of that year while simultaneously taking a job a Special Government Employee (SGE). In addition to her role their being quite ambiguous, questions about the legality of the arrangement caught the eye of Senator Charles Grassley, who sent Secretary of State John Kerry a letter demanding answers. What was Abedin doing? Who knows, but some of the activities in which Mahmoud alleges the Muslim Brotherhood and the Clintons were involved most certainly do not reflect a primary concern for the security of the United States. Were they treasonable? Only an extensive investigation might reveal that, but these allegations proffer that the Clintons relationship with the Muslim Brotherhood predates Bill becoming Governor of Arkansas. Then, we have the body counts. Recently, Larry Nichols, a former Clinton operative, almost casually admitted to having murdered for the Clintons on a regular basis, whether it was low-level political opponents, or weak link confidants who held information that might compromise their power. The lengthy list of individuals whose suspicious deaths directly benefitted Barack Obama began even before he received the Democratic nomination. Most recently of course, Hawaii State Health Director Loretta Fuddy was killed when the small plane carrying her and eight other people crashed into the ocean off the Hawaiian island of Molokai. The only fatality, she is the individual who certified (I use the term loosely) President Obamas long-form birth certificate. The circumstances and accounts of her demise are respectively, sketchy and conflicting at best. It is well-known that Obamas close associates include members of the Weather Underground, whose stated mission was overthrowing the American government. For his entire life, he has been surrounded by radicals, embittered, America-hating anti-colonialists, black nationalists, and avowed communists yet this has never entered into the area of popular discussion, even in the face of the myriad policies, orders, and actions the President brought about which have directly compromised Americas economy, national security, and domestic tranquility. Obamas origins narrative of course remains unresolved. This week for the first time, a mainstream publication supported the voracity of evidence that the President perpetrated a fraud with the forged long-form birth certificate released by the White House in April 2011. It is a little-known fact that the submission of fraudulent documents toward attaining public office on the federal level remains an executable offense under the law. It is possible that we not only have a pathologically unethical oligarchy in perpetual residence in our government, but various Mafia-like families sharing and trading off power, operating as they see fit, and compromising this nation in ways most Americans cannot yet imagine. If so, the perpetrators must shudder to think of what an independent prosecutor or commission with no political allegiances might make of their activities over the last couple of decades. So, congressional Democrats sponsoring HR 3741 might have been persuaded to do so by influential parties who fear that they may at some point be charged with espionage or treason. On the other hand, they might be acting independently, in the anticipation of other prominent Democrats being so charged. Perhaps some may even have purposed to facilitate such charges being leveled, knowing how toxic certain individuals have become to the party. In such a case, they may be trying to spare their lives, as well as facilitating easier convictions. Some might rather not have the blood of colleagues on their hands, but perceive the imperative of removing people who have become dangers to the Democrat Party, as well as traitors to the United States.

Bad formatting, bad link.
The democrat party of today would hardly exist if we had treason trials when they were called for. Of course the demonRats are opposed to them.
“What motivation would congressional Democrats have for wishing to neutralize the death penalty option for such serious crimes? “
That should be obvious. The democrat party, like its fearless leader, has nothing against anyone who betrays this country.

Pushing through the ACA without giving anyone time to read it firs qualifies as treason in my book.
Nothing happens in Washington without a reason
Because they removed the death row for treason
There, I made it rhyme....
>>Bad formatting, bad link.
Unless it was changed, the link worked for me.
Could have used a few paragraph breaks though.

Selective re-editing of the ACA act by the executive branch is treason as well...
So is the non-enforcement of immigration laws and border security, the selective enforceemnt of laws, the abdication of the law via illegal treaties and arrangements with the UN...
I could go on and on....
It’s been fixed. It was bad.
This, combined with Dirty Harry’s nuclear warfare in the Senate to get judges in place quickly.
I can see treason trials following the removal of this rotten bastard from office along with his evil henchmen.
But I doubt the death penalty would be the result.
It may also be a way od luring Snowden back!

just in time..,(wait for it)
FOR THE HOLIDAY SEASON!
Treason trials? Hah! Who would initiate them? A GOP afraid of its own shadow? We are in the midst of the biggest Constitutional Crisis this nation has faced since the Civil War and it refuses to lift a finger to do anything about it. We are no longer a nation of laws; we have overnight become a banana republic where whatever El Caudillo says is the law of the moment.
The Republican party is not innocent either.
Take, for example, the War on Drugs; it's justification is the commerce-clause which lists the states at the same level as foreign nations. If the federal government were to assert the same control over the buying and selling in foreign nations as it claims in interstate- (and intrastate-… and non-) commerce it would be rightly seen as an act of war and forcing the enforcement thereof would be consequent of waging that war. So then, the War on Drugs is rightly seen as a war on the several states, which fits the Constitution's definition of treason.
“Do Democratic Lawmakers anticipate Treason Trials?”
You betcha——and with good reason!!!!
That's what Zero has been saying for the last 3 years !
Too bad he 'misppoke' 39 times in front of the press about keeping your healthcare , your doctor, or your "period" .
Benghazi was treason
Fast and Furious was treason ,for both the USSA and Mexico
IRS political supression of the Tea Party could be considered treason .. if you draw out the logical impact .
Irresponsible funding of international terrorists could be considered treasonous
Irresponsible running up the national debt into bankruptcy could be considered treasonous.
Gee .., I have no idea why Demorats would want to lesson the penalty of treason , .. do you ?
