Let us not wield the title of treason too quickly upon those we disagree with. Great damage is occurring in America, as a result of those who are fighting against the election results. It does amount to insurrection. It does qualify as sedition.
Today's assault on the Capitol underscores the gravity our nation is facing. But, were these acts treasonous? These are not people who want to destroy America. However misguided, they do love our nation.
On the flip side, there are those among the Republicans who have in the past tried to cast their enemies as being treasonous. James Comey is but one who has been so accused. And, I find a headline that says, "New evidence shows it is time to charge Joe Biden with treason."
When either side reaches the point where they are able to toss the other side in jail for treason, that is the point where government rule by a single ideology imprisons our land.
