That's not how you spell “imprison the C-suite of”. Last time I read the Constitution, giving aid and comfort to America's enemies was treason.

Yeah but America is not at war with Russia. Ukraine is. They might not be allies, and not on friendly terms whatsoever, but there's still a line to be crossed before considering them as actual enemies.

Yes, during wartime. The US is not at war with Russia.
