The Espionage Act is bigger than espionage​

The CNN legal analyst and the former counsel to the assistant attorney general for national security Carrie Cordero explained the legal system to CNN’s Jake Tapper on “The Lead” on Monday. A typical spy would be charged under the Espionage Act, she said. But so would someone who improperly retained national defense information.

“In this case, former President Trump hasn’t been charged with spying for a foreign government, or espionage as we normally think about it, but he has been charged with willfully withholding national defense information – which is the way that a case like this is normally charged,” Cordero said.

She also noted that in the national security legal community, there is some discussion of separating laws related to national security information out from the Espionage Act.

It seems to me that Trump campaign for President is unconstitutional as are a few other candidates plus all candidates seeking re-election who were front and center Jan 6th.

For example Lindsey Graham tried to get Georgia to find more than 11,000 votes for Trump.

What makes a number of possible candidates seeking election or re-election unconstitutional?

Fourteenth Amendment Equal Protection and Other Rights

Section 3 Disqualification from Holding Office
No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof.

Trump campaign money scams are nothing short of pyramid schemes such that Betsy DeVoss and Erik Prince grew up with.

Biden gave aid and comfort to Iran and Hamas. :rolleyes-41:

According to your harebrained logic, he's ineligible to run again.
