Didn't the US execute the Rosenbergs for doing what Trump may have been trying to do?

Or do I have that wrong? I'm okay with being wrong.

1. The couple were convicted of providing top-secret information about radar, sonar, jet propulsion

engines and valuable nuclear weapon designs. Convicted of espionage in 1951, they were executed by the federal government of the United States in 1953 at Sing Sing Correctional Facility in Ossining, New York, becoming the first American civilians to be executed for such charges and the first to receive that penalty during peacetime.[1][2][3][4]

Other convicted co-conspirators were sentenced to prison, including Ethel's brother, David Greenglass (who had made a plea agreement), Harry Gold, and Morton Sobell. Klaus Fuchs, a German scientist working in Los Alamos, was convicted in the United Kingdom.[5][6]

2. TFG's mentor, Roy Cohn,

1. Made it his mission to have them convicted and executed.
2. Wished he could have pulled the lever.

3. You're wrong, but not because of the facts

But we don't know for a fact that TFG was up to the same thing

5. What other reason could there be for taking nuclear documents?

Bed time reading? I doubt that Trump reads.

6. $$$ lots of $$$ 😆

The Rosenbergs were dupes or patsys at best.

11. According to researchers...

Julius was a spy for the Soviet Union, but Ethel was not.

Greenglass' wife was a spy, but Cohn let Greenglass lie, to protect Greenglass' wife.

7. It must involve more $$$$$$$ for tRump.

We know that he lives to grift. His only goal in life is to get more $$$ because he ever can have enough. Greedy to the Nth degree.

10. Only two things motivate TFG

Money and revenge.

4. Yes we did

(making certain assumptions not proven about what Trump did/was trying to do)

8. The good news is if Trump did give himself a blanket pardon,

it is highly unlikely to give him coverage for this and a bunch of the crime if not all of it happened after he left office.

9. Murder in the name of Jesus and capitalism is just fine
