i'll just google it for myself.
Section 110 Article 3 of ye olde constitution:
Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court.
now, did deleting the emails constitute legal treason in accordance with our constitution, not public opinion treason? i don't think it did. is it criminal? sure, but treasonous? maybe a little too internal. i'd think that calling for Russia to do its own digging into the matter is a little closer to our legal definition of what treason is.
