Treason, something to think about. – Just Saying

These are recent accusations made by Trump, He seems to have the word Treason weighing heavily on his mind. Is his magic mirror on the wall acting up?

• April 2025: Accusations against former officials Miles Taylor and Chris Krebs
  Trump signed executive orders/directives targeting them (former DHS chief of staff and cybersecurity head from his first term) for criticizing him and pushing back on 2020 election fraud claims. He explicitly called Taylor “guilty of treason” (or words to that effect: “he’s guilty of treason, if you want to know the truth“) and ordered investigations, revoking their security clearances. Critics framed this as retribution for dissent.

• July 2025: Accusation against Barack Obama and 2016 officials (via Tulsi Gabbard declassifications)
  Trump publicly stated in the Oval Office (captured on video and widely shared) that Obama, Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, James Comey, John Brennan, James Clapper, and others committed treason through the “Russia hoax” and efforts to undermine his 2016 victory. He said “it’s there, he’s guilty. This was treason” and emphasized pursuing justice. This aligned with DNI Tulsi Gabbard’s release of documents alleging a “treasonous conspiracy” by Obama-era officials.

• November 2025: Accusations against six Democratic lawmakers (including Maggie Goodlander)
  In response to a video they released urging military members to refuse illegal orders, Trump posted multiple times on Truth Social calling it “SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR AT THE HIGHEST LEVEL,” labeling them “traitors to our Country” who “should be ARRESTED AND PUT ON TRIAL,” and stating the behavior was “punishable by DEATH!” He reposted calls to “LOCK THEM UP” and even amplified extreme suggestions like hanging. This drew bipartisan rebukes as an overreach on free speech/military law.

• March 2026: Accusations against U.S. media outlets over Iran war coverage
  Amid the ongoing Iran conflict, Trump posted on Truth Social accusing major outlets (e.g., Wall Street Journal, others) of spreading “knowingly FAKE” reports (e.g., on U.S. military losses like damaged refueling planes or carrier attacks) that aided Iran via disinformation. He wrote they “should be brought up on Charges for TREASON for the dissemination of false information.” This escalated threats against the press, with some reports linking it to FCC warnings about licenses and broader “patriotic” coverage demands.

Trump has accused others (via nicknames, direct attacks, or claims) of something that critics, psychologists, and fact-checkers widely describe as projection—i.e., describing his own behavior or flaws. This is often summarized as “every accusation is a confession.” These are drawn from his public statements, rallies, debates, and social media over the years.I kept it simple and stuck to well-documented cases with clear parallels:

• “Crooked Hillary” / “Crooked Joe” Biden (nickname for Clinton and Biden): Accused them of being corrupt and untrustworthy with power/money.
  Reflection on himself: Trump has been convicted on felony charges (hush-money case) and found civilly liable for business fraud involving inflated asset values.

• Accusing Hillary Clinton of “extreme carelessness” with classified material (2016 emails server attacks): Claimed she couldn’t be trusted with secrets.
  Reflection on himself: Trump was criminally charged for retaining classified documents at Mar-a-Lago (stored in unsecured places like his bedroom and bathroom) and continued using an unsecured personal phone in office.

• Accusing Democrats / opponents of “weaponizing the justice system” or “rigging” investigations/elections: Repeatedly claims Biden/Dems use DOJ/FBI unfairly against him and that elections are stolen.
  Reflection on himself: Critics note this mirrors his own pressure on officials (e.g., 2020 election challenges, calls to “find votes”) and plans/statements about using government against enemies.

• Accusing Democrats of using “inflammatory language” that stokes violence (after assassination attempts on him): Blamed opponents’ rhetoric for threats against him.
  Reflection on himself: His own statements (e.g., “fight like hell,” Jan. 6 rally) were cited by investigators as encouraging the Capitol riot and have been linked to heightened political violence.

• “Lyin’ Ted” Cruz (nickname during 2016 primaries): Called Cruz a liar who can’t be trusted.
  Reflection on himself: Trump has the highest documented rate of false/misleading claims of any modern president (tens of thousands per fact-checkers like Washington Post).

• Accusing Biden/admin of misusing FEMA funds on immigrants: Claimed they were diverting disaster aid improperly.
  Reflection on himself: Trump’s own administration redirected FEMA money for border detention/immigration enforcement.

• Claiming opponents (Democrats/media) spread “fake news” or lies: Constant attacks on media as dishonest and Democrats as fabricators.
  Reflection on himself: Multiple independent fact-checkers have tracked thousands of his own false statements; he has promoted debunked claims (e.g., the “eating pets” story in 2024 debate, which led to real-world bomb threats).

• Accusing Democrats of being responsible for assassination attempts on him (2024 debate): Said their words caused the July 13 attempt (“I probably took a bullet… because of the things that they say about me”).
  Reflection on himself: His rhetoric has been tied by investigators to inciting events like Jan. 6.

• “Low-energy Jeb,” “Sleepy Joe,” “Little Marco,” etc. (nicknames targeting stamina, size, or alertness): Mocked opponents as weak, tired, or ineffective.
  Reflection on himself: Often noted in context of his own reported late-night tweeting, rally fatigue complaints, or age-related critiques he levels at others while being older than some targets.

Trump repeatedly ignores one piece of advice Susie Wiles gives him, he can’t keep his fingers away from Truth Social and he can’t keep his mouth shut.
