Don't bother charging them for what they thought, just charge them for what they did.

To bring a sedition case, prosecutors would have to prove there was a conspiracy to attack government agents or officials that posed an imminent danger

That's going to be super easy -- barely an inconvenience.

They need proof?

There are a ton of YouTube videos they can use.

Sometimes posted by the morons themselves.

This is great news- find them and make them tell who’s paying the bills.

Although I think the paid Soros instigators being flown or bussed in everywhere are smart enough to stay off-camera.

Still get the locals to name names and follow the trail upwards.

Shouldn’t be too hard to prove conspiracy. Now that the terrorists are being arrested and held, their phones should have some useful information.

Charge, prosecute, jurors find “it” guilty, then hang “it”!

We got Soleimani.

Why can’t drone Soros?

I don’t see the difference in evil or evil acts.

I’ll believe it when I see it. So far Barr’s role seems to talk tough to make the base all get excited while business as usual goes on unchanged.

I can assure the Wall Street Journal...police aren’t slightly concerned about right wing extremists. That is nonsense.

ALL, 100% of the problem is with the left wing extremists that are communists, hiding behind names like Antifa and BLM.

I’d say planning to seal them in a building and burn it down would seem to be an imminent danger.
But that’s just me.

Maybe one of FR's lawyers can help me, but is seems to me insurrection would be an easier charge, since you don't have to prove a conspiracy, just participation.

18 U.S. Code § 2383.Rebellion or insurrection

Whoever incites, sets on foot, assists, or engages in any rebellion or insurrection against the authority of the United States or the laws thereof, or gives aid or comfort thereto, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States.

Might not apply in every circumstance, but certainly many of these incidents would qualify as A rising or rebellion of citizens against their government, usually manifested by acts of violence. Particularly in circumstances like Portland and Seattle where the rebels have essentially established their own government. And it requires only engaging in the acts, not a conspiracy.

That said, it would be easier to pursue things like arson, murder, attempted murder, assault and such. But those crimes seem to appear relevant only to police officers and a teenager in Kenosha. I suppose when the local prosecutors and governance supports violence in the streets, there's not much to do. Except charge such conspirators with Sedition and Insurrection, which isn't what Barr is talking about.

That wouldn't be hard, would it, Joe? Lock them up in a police station and set it on fire. Among so many other stunts.

Attacking government buildings and agents, committing arson on federal lands, rioting with groups funded by foreign powers—plenty of grounds for sedition charges, as well as treason.

What about the part about them crossing state lines to riot?

Counterintelligence investigations are apparently no longer allowed, except for coups against Trump. But criminal investigations are. It is obvious that the riots and violence are to a great extent planned and coordinated. Barr is pointing out how to get the upper hand.
Step One: Assemble evidence of criminal acts.
Step Two: Get search warrants for all communications, finances, training, organization, political connections, journalistic connections. IOW, actually conduct a competent investigation.
Step Three: Present evidence to Grand Jury. Indict.

Use information gained from the investigation to shut down the funding, command and control, etc., BEFORE it is unleashed on the election and its aftermath.

Why does Barr have to tell US Attorneys to do this?
