Law enforcement and the United States legal system cannot prevent crimes and treasonous acts before they occur. We see problematic consequences from that reality. The United States cannot wait until a treasonous act succeeds before we take counter action because a successful treasonous act may be enough to destroy our legal system.
However, we CAN disrupt and perhaps prevent any coordinated actions involving several individuals and/or groups. Such significant actions involve several people and require coordination. In addition, coordination requires money and leadership.
We can discourage any treasonous act perpetrators from completing their plan by convincing them that they will be tried for treason and, if found guilty of such a crime, suffer the punishments up to and including death that the Constitution provides. Donating money and other support to a treasonous act is a crime.
Treasonous acts are punishable by fines, imprisonment or death as detailed in 18 USC Ch. 115: TREASON, SEDITION, AND SUBVERSIVE ACTIVITIES; From Title 18—CRIMES AND CRIMINAL PROCEDURE PART I—CRIMES [See link here: [https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?path=/prelim@title18/part1/chapter115&edition=prelim]]
We expect significant actions from t.rump followers to interfere with and/or discredit the 2024 elections. I hope we continue to alert Law Enforcement and the National Guard about likely actions as we discover them. Individual, lone wolf actors present a difficult challenge. We cannot stop individual lone actors who follow their personal impulses without coordination with others. We can and should establish regional clearing centers before the elections that are close to areas where t.rump 'Treasonous Acts' are most likely to happen.
In addition to establishing regional clearing centers to process detainees, we should begin investigations of people who are likely to donate money and organizations skills toward a successful insurrection.
LEAKING THE EXISTENCE OF INVESTIGATIONS INTO 'TREASONOUS ACTS' WILL NOTIFY ORGANIZERS AND FINANCIERS OF THEIR PERSONAL RISKS.
We hope their fear will diminish their appetite for Fascism. The organizers of the coming Treasonous Acts have written a detailed plan of how they will destroy the institutions which preserve our freedoms, security and liberty. To read their entire plan, click here: Mandate for Leadership 2025
We see today a coordinated movement to weaken and overthrow the legitimate government of the United States of America by whatever means the protagonists choose.
We recognize 'treasonous acts' [the phrase is from former CIA director John Brennan] when we see them and we want to punish the perpetrators, organizers and financiers of those acts. We know exactly what is happening, but our system prevents us from acting to avert harm until the courts prove the legal basis for any action beyond a reasonable doubt. If we wait for that level of absolute proof, it may be too late. Insurrectionists deliberately use our system to delay any action to save our system, at the exact some time they are actively conspiring to destroy our system.

These crimes lie outside of normal political discourse; they are crimes. They are NOT political discussions and/or Free Speech.
We CAN pursue the folks who commit those acts and the people who provide support for them. We can prosecute them after the fact; AND, we can discourage any such acts BEFORE the fact. We expect to see continuing and growing demonstrations as the 2024 elections draw near. We expect those demonstrations will be met with resolve including force if necessary.
We can create collection centers where Police and National Guard personnel take all those arrested and/or detained while engaged in an unlawful act. Perhaps the FBI can interrogate each detained person to see whether they are simple foot soldiers who should be in jail, or perhaps a person may have knowledge of the financing, planning and organizing the acts.
We should prosecute all the insurrectionists, especially the people at the top of the organization. Once they are aware we can charge them with treason, they may be less likely to commit the acts.
We recognize the reluctance of the Department of Justice to discuss plans like these; however, a limited discussion of intent may serve effectively the security interests of the United States by cooling down the treason acts somewhat.
Here are the Codes:
