Under
18 U.S.C. § 2384, “seditious conspiracy” occurs when two or more persons:
conspire to overthrow, put down, or to destroy by force the Government of the United States, or to levy war against them,
or to oppose by force the authority thereof, or by force to prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law of the United States, or by force to seize, take, or possess any property of the United States contrary to the authority thereof.

3 U.S. Code § 9 - Certificates of votes for President and Vice President
In the
United States, insurrection against the authority of the federal government is a crime under 18 U.S. Code §2383, which provides that:
Whoever incites, sets on foot, assists, or engages in any rebellion or insurrection against the authority of the United States or the laws thereof, or gives aid or comfort thereto, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States.
213 people have been charged with seditious conspiracy so it is a charge that can be proven
others have been charged with obstruction of an official proceeding, which is insurrection which also has been proven and people have been found guilty.
Trumps own words can be used as freedom of speech does not cover inciting a riot or disruption of a government function
When it makes it to the Supreme Court, even those justices who are Trump supporter are going to have a hard time justifying their decision
They probably prefer not to hear this case
They would prefer that Trump became President and leave it up to Congress to impeach again
Anyway the crimes have been proven and people have been sentenced.
It just that the top dog has not had his day in court
