AG Barr also said in the CBS interview that he doesn’t think anyone’s conduct rises to the level of treason.
He may be foaming the runway. The coup plotters were just a tad over zealous, that’s all.
It’s also a nice trap for Hilly. In her brilliant legal mind, she has likely deduced that since she left State in 2013, she’s well out of the woods on the ems.
If she believes that, she’ll be even more reckless than usual. She can easily prosecute herself.
No SOL on treason.
“Treason” is used indiscriminately without regard to its constitutional elements. Notice Barr was silent on the issue of sedition.
“AG Barr also said in the CBS interview that he doesn’t think anyone’s conduct rises to the level of treason.”
When he said it didn’t meet the “legal” definition of treason (but maybe “colloquial”) I lost a lot of hope at that moment. What they did was treason — LEGAL treason — as defined in the Constitution.
Barr’s appearance in this thing is just Act 3 in the Rat production. He, as a Bush bot, will do nothing.
The wheels of justice turn (grind) slowly, very slowly, sometimes so slowly that the guilty pass away due to natural causes. But with the Klintoon empire perhaps not giving the younger a political toehold is justice done.
May be not a good idea to “shoot for the moon” (treason). Better to get an easier “conviction” on something else like obstruction or destroying evidence, or whatever charges they can make stick.
