Is there language in the U.S. Constitution or other legislation that prohibits fomenting rebellion or civil war?

Not actually participating in the act of rebellion or war, just promoting and inciting it.

The Sedition Act covers some. What else is there?

Exoplanet - Since I am so ignorant, could you at least point to some of those books? I am not at all familiar with this sort of law. If you want to discuss high field magnetics, I'll be happy to. I'm sure that you'll probably be completely ignorant of some of the most basic fundamentals, just as I am completely ignorant of some areas of your expertise.

A couple of citations, please

Exo - But it appears that perhaps you have answered the question. Apparently there is no clear prohibition and it requires numerous books and Supreme Court decisions to begin to approach the subject.

The Supremacy Clause (that ended the Civil War) was supposed to put into place the law that no state could put in legislation counter to federal law, because federal law has supremacy. Yet for administration after administration we've seen states pass their own laws on things like marijuana and shielding illegal foreign nationals and no one in DC seems to lift a finger to stop it.

I think Americans are preoccupied by trade wars.
