> There can be no treason unless Congress declares war on some country
From the Constitution
Section 3. Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying war against them, or in adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort. No person shall be convicted of treason unless on the testimony of two witnesses to the same overt act, or on confession in open court.

I think Burr was charged with treason for planning an attack on DC. There was no declared war, but Burr wanted to amass an army (men and arms) to attack. I think they did not have two witnesses of the same act though they had 2 witness of different acts of "planning war" on the US so he was not convicted. Even if I'm wrong, congress doesn't need to declare war for someone to be charged with treason.

Trump simply needs to order a polygraph on all White House employees. It is so simple. All Cia, NSC etc take polygraphs and the simple question is did you write this anonymous slime for the deep state and give it to the Leftist media. When the inevitable traitor is found, seize him for immediate trial and execution. Go TRUMP!!

There can be no treason unless Congress declares war on some country, which is highly unlikely. The framers of the Constitution particularly wanted to avoid frivolouus accusations.

Undeclared wars, but wars nevertheless.

About 17 years, now.

“We have sitting members of the GOP Congress who happily threaten him when talk of replacing Sessions comes up. The careerist GOP is rotten to its core and that includes many on his staff, obviously.”

Yup...the same unindicted co-conspirators that allowed and funded 6 years of O’muslim’s fundamental transformation of America.

Those programs are pretty good that identify writing styles. This op-ed is classic nevertrump. I’ve read it a dozen times minimum.

Trump needs to release ALL the documents, now!

They (FBI/DOJ) will not obey orders from Trump to release the documents.

These people are all in, and the country is in great danger.

Their actions are a declaration of war.

Why is everyone assuming this was written by someone within the administration? It is entirely likely that the NYT is just making this up!

Just you wait. If/when President Trump fires the person, the left will claim he is violating Free Speech.

Trump knows the NYT opinion piece isn’t treason.

Prediction: He’s getting attention. The FISA memo unredacted is coming.

That’s why I said they’re trying to gaslight POTUS and us.

Someone who is working for the president thinks that they were elected president.

Not treason but certainly inexcusable.

“Why is everyone assuming this was written by someone within the administration?”

Because Sarah and PDJT are treating it like it’s someone within the administration. Trump is not shy about calling fake news...fake news.
