Plus, those unlimited breadsticks are great for carbo loading ahead of a day of beating up cops. Good info. Must be where all the insurrections during the Summer of 2020 ate every night...

The probability of success is not a factor in seditious conspiracy: 18 U.S.C.§ 2384 I know that you lack the cognitive ability to actually comprehend anything that doesn't fit your predetermined worldview, but I beg anyone who is reading this to actually read the language of the statute I cited. It does not require a likelihood of success nor does it require "overthrowing the government" as the only objective or potential consequence of the actions. For anyone who isn't used to reading legislative or legal language, I can break it down for you. To have meet the requirements of guilt under 18 U.S.C. § 2384, you need to meet the following conditons: Two or more persons In any state, territory, or any place subject to the jurisdiction of the United States Conspire to any one of the below: Overthrow the Government of the US Put down the Government of the US destroy the Government of the US by force Levy war against the Government of the US Oppose by force the authority of the Government of the US Prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law of the US By force seize, take, or possess any property of the US contrary to the authority thereof They shall be: Fined; and/or Imprisoned not more than 20 years In the context of Jan 6, you're mostly looking at the 6th item under bullet 3: Prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law of the US. They were attempting to prevent, and successfully delayed, the execution of the certification of the vote. We have two or more people in the US working together to prevent or delay the certification of the electoral vote. That falls squarely under seditious conspiracy. And that, in your view, adds up to overthrowing the US government? Hindering and delaying the counting of the electors = attempting to overthrow the government? Why aren't we looking at the first item under bullet 3? Keep in mind the Oath Keepers were infiltrated with FBI informants. Shocker! How come that always seems to be the case with these groups and the "threat to democracy" that they pose? FBI informants embedded in these groups who could have stopped the threat before anything happened, but they never seem to be able to. I wonder why? You know what maybe some of the Capitol Police...who actually let people into the Capitol, thereby helping cause the delay, should also be charged with seditious conspiracy? Absolutely 100% totally ridiculous. Beyond that we have the word "insurrection" thrown around here an awful lot. Perhaps you can explain why not a single person has been charged with insurrection under the federal statute during what we've been repeatedly told was an insurrection?

That, in my view, adds up to seditious conspiracy. Attempting to prevent the certification of the election as part of a plan for the loser of an election to be declared the winner. The Feds just need to show that the facts match just one of those items. Item 6 is a slam dunk. Are you saying the FBI should not infiltrate domestic terror organizations? One capitol police office has been charged for assisting the Jan 6 rioters. But you're not guilty of conspiracy if you weren't part of the plan. Are you asserting that these Oath Keepers are NOT guilty of Seditious Conspiracy?

Because Seditious Conspiracy is a slam dunk case and DoJ attorneys are generally small-c conservatives. They don’t want to risk losing.

Given that the charge of seditious conspiracy has never been successfully prosecuted in the history of our nation....it's hard to say.

Maybe it's just me, but it doesn't seem like our friend chigoose is exchanging ideas in good faith here, does it? Pretty obvious question, right? Since there was an insurrection it follows logically that there should be insurrection charges, right? It's not like they don't have hundreds of capitol trespassers to choose from to charge with insurrection, right? I'm interested in his legal opinion as to why we have yet to see a single insurrection charge levied against insurrectionists? Perplexing. 1

Americans being found guilty of seditious conspiracy can be found at: United States v. Lebron, 222 F.2d 531 (2d Cir. 1955). As to why we haven’t seen an insurrection charge, I’ve already answered that. Unlike you, apparently, I have a life and cannot respond immediately to every idiotic question asked on this hellsite full of morons. I was cooking dinner and then enjoying it with my wife (I know it hurts to remind you that I’m taken and therefore will never be with you, but alas…) and then we watched some tv. I am very much enjoying Sandman. It’s not exactly to the book but it’s very good. It took just a minute or so of research to provide the evidence of something you claim didn’t exist, but I eagerly anticipate your next attempt to move the goalposts.

Does your family still talk to you or are you that weird uncle nobody wants around because he makes everything uncomfortable by spouting whatever lunatic thing he’s read on Facebook? The failures of law enforcement to prevent Jan 6 are long and well documented. Something like this had never happened before and it strained the credulity of law enforcement to believe that it would actually happen. They failed us. So even though I know it is pointless to ask because you’ll just dodge with your usual BS: do the actions of the Oath Keepers charged with seditious conspiracy meet the elements of that crime?

Has Christopher Wray investigated any of his Federalist Society stooges? Wray admitted that he didn’t investigate any of the 4,500 tips of sexual abuse accusing Kavanaugh.
