There is also the crime of misprison of treason (knowing a crime of treason is about to be committed and failing to report it).

Courtesy of Wikipedia:

In the United States, misprision of treason is a federal offense, committed where someone who has knowledge of the commission of any treason against the United States, conceals such knowledge and does not inform the President, a federal judge or State Governor or State judge (18 U.S.C. § 2382). It is punishable by a fine and up to seven years in federal prison. It is also a crime punishable under the criminal laws of many states.

Wait… So you mean that anyone on the Hill, in the White House or in the GOP who knew but did not immediately go to the feds is eligble for a 7 year vacation up river?
