There were not post-war Tribunals following the civil war.


but the language is clearly directed toward those who took up arms against the US, not necessarily those "convicted."

Having said that, it isn't case law with a body of decisions to guide, and any guesses I'd make are pretty much worthless.

I have been watching J Michael Luttig though, and he's convinced the insurrection language describes Don's post-election behavior.
