Good luck with that...when was the last time insurgence has been legally been defined in US Court?
I'm assuming that term was a throwback from the post-civil war era.
I'm pretty certain its a civil war throwback.
Also, just for fun....I don't think its really possible for the president of a country to be an insurgent.
As wrong-headed as Trump might be on an issue he is still the leader of the country.
Not even close. Stop worshipping politicians and worry more about regular folks.
If you cared about insurgence, the Mueller Conspiracy was the closest Ive seen to a real coup.

If storming a federal building is insurgence then BLM needs to be held accountable. They stormed a federal court house.
Everything else is a red-herring.
You care more about rich politicians than you do normal folks. Thank God they had Officers with guns, and walls...to protect them.
Charge the offenders with the appropriate charges - property destruction, unlawful entry, physical assault, ect.
Then you should have NO PROBLEM including ALL those who participated in the looting, burning, anarchy in general that was commonplace for several months this summer in Oregon, Washington state, Minnesota, DC, several other locations! Justice for the radical left and Trump supporters differ significantly with the former receiving nothing but praise and the benefit of having their CRIMES ignored. Please look at facts that exist without the marxist goggles.
I believe all rioting is wrong.
I wish the left didnt spend an entire summer excusing violent riots and attacks against innocent people and police officers. Shame on you.
Our culture is very toxic right now and our leaders and media are encouraging this behavior.

You have made some good comments today. Your first sentence in this thread is one. I can respect your comments regardless if I agree or not and I'm quite certain you don't care either way my opinion on your comments.
I respect your opinion. But I do think you selectively target your anger.
Nothing happened at the Capital that didnt happen all summer...violence, destruction of property, intimidation, ect. I personally do not believe it occurring at the Capital makes it anymore important. I have more sympathy for the regular folks who experienced the same situation, but had less resources.
I do not support poor behavior by anyone.

That is true. My "anger" is mostly targeted at individuals, not events. What happened on the 6th is both. But that doesn't mean I'm not equally upset at SOME of the events this summer. I just don't blanket cover each and every uprising with the same paint brush as the scum around here do. But I don't support any violence stemming from a protest and support the prosecution of any and all that participate in breaking the law.
If it is, portland is also. All the violent blm rallies are. Its not a path they want to take.
Lots of people have been learning new words this week....and most of them need drool bibs.
Has anyone ever paid you money to interpret a law, or did you just sleep at a Holiday Inn last night?
Okay, so anyone arrested from storming into the capital can't be elected to serve in Congress.... I doubt that's a bad thing.
Sitting Congressmen/Women, following House procedure in objections, is not an insurgence. It's following the rules.
