Is there NO duty to warn?

How many Republicans KNEW the insurrection was coming and said nothing. They could have stopped the violence at the Capitol. They could have National Guard there with those massively outnumbered police officers.
This whole plan was known by so many and now they want an award for spilling their guts after the fact. These people are not heroes.
Is there any consequences for them keeping silent about the upcoming violent coup?

1. Republicans feel entitled to the presidency. Not just the ones running for president. All of them.

They all feel that the presidency is "theirs" so most of them have no problem with any transgressions which occur in the course of returning to themselves their rightful property.

Almost every single goddamned Republican is more loyal to their party than to their country, its people, its Constitution, or their oaths.

2. They thought the treason would succeed

And they cheered it on. Because they are unable to actually win anymore. Demographics.
