What's the criminal penalty if convicted for conspiring and committing sedition?

[duforsure]

Could any of them be charged with treason also, or is that only in time of war? Giving secrets to enemies? What's the worse penalty any of them could face, if convicted?

7. Thank You Travel Hat,

Exactly what I was wanting to know.

2. I think it's be changed to a slap on the wrist and probation.

[Sherman A1]

3. That is much more likely

I see it will probably be a Five Buck fine and no time whatsoever.

[MiHale]

4. And a black mark on their permanent record.

[duforsure]

8. Yes you're probably right,

But doing that , or giving up an excuse like for the good of country BS will drive voters away after what was done, and what was attempted against our Democracy. If the Dems let them off the hook they should be replaced ASAP with others that'll give them consequences that will prevent this from happening again, or next time they'll succeed.

5. For Republicans? Nothing n/t

6. It appears to be three months' probation. That's what most

seem to be getting.
