Treason: “The crime of betraying one’s country, especially by attempting to kill the sovereign or overthrow the government.”

Traitor: “Now Rare betrayal of trust or faith; treachery. violation of the allegiance owed to one’s sovereign or state; betrayal of one’s country, specif., in the U.S. (as declared in the Constitution), consisting only in levying war against the U.S. or in giving aid and comfort to its enemies.”

American’s most precious right is guaranteed in the first amendment; the right to vote. This is the only weapon sacred to the people who are the United States of America. If our right to cast ballots selecting those who will serve us in Washington is damaged or destroyed, our democratic republic becomes non-existent. Fascism will replace freedom and democracy. Any individual, or individuals who conspire with a foreign nation to alter the outcome of our elections has, indeed, committed treason in an effort to overthrow our established government.

This is the case with Trump, his family, and his associates.

Today many Republican politicians, in an effort to save their party and the presidency of their party’s leader, are attempting to end the Robert Mueller investigation which is closing in on the truth. This, too, is an act of treason. These Republicans are accepting the influence of a foreign nation which opposes the very principles of our founding fathers. By approving of collusion by our illegitimate president with foreign agents, they are traitors, and must face trial.

The Republican Party does not exist today; it is a party in name only. Every sitting Congressman or Senator who waves the flag of the once Grand Old Party, is guilty of treason if they refuse to accept the findings of our security agencies and the FBI who investigated allegations of interference and have confirmed it as a fact.

Placing a political party before the American people is an act of treason.

The Republican Party must be disbanded; they have declared war against the nation; the people.

Once again, remember the words of Abraham Lincoln.

“This country, with its institutions, belongs to the people who inhabit it. Whenever they shall grow weary of the existing government, they can exercise their constitutional right of amending it, or exercise their revolutionary right to overthrow it.”
