Like many things in federal law it is a criminal statue -- which makes it a crime with a defined penalty of 20 years in prison.
Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO)

The Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) is a federal law (codified at 18 U.S.C. §§ 1961-68) targeting organized criminal activity and racketeering. RICO enhances existing criminal punishments and creates new causes of action for acts done as a part of an organized criminal enterprise.
The law was originally passed in 1970 as a part of a larger movement to curb organized crime and to allow victims of organized crime to recover. While the original statute was primarily targeted at the mafia who’s disconnected structure made conviction of high-ranking members difficult due to the inability to tie them directly to crimes, the use of the statute has now been used to take down many notable criminal enterprises.
RICO imposes a maximum criminal penalty of 20 years in prison for violations of the statute. If sentenced the defendant must also forfeit all proceeds obtained while engaging in racketeering activity to the government. To be convicted under RICO, a pattern of racketeering activity is necessary. This means that at least 2 separate activities that can be classified as racketeering must have occurred within 10 years of each other.
RICO allows for a private individual that was injured by a violation of the law to recover treble damages suffered by the wrongful activity of the offender. A criminal conviction under RICO against the defendant will estop them from defending the allegations if they are brought to civil court.

Let's take a look at the latest progressive Palestinian talking point and what utter bunk it is. AOC fundamentally does not understand history... and maybe she should zip her lips before spewing nonsense. Sadly, I expect the dumb will continue to flow out.
Historian rebukes liberals portraying Christ as a Palestinian: 'Rips Jesus out of his Jewish context'

You can't for years, support the terrorists killing the Jews... and then suddenly try to change course without people noticing.

AOC, other officials sought to speak at pro-Hamas group’s rallies

Well...apparently she was denied, because she wasn't seen as extreme enough for them. It's pretty scary seeing people with Hamas/Hezbollah flags in NYC.
It's scarier that many plans to vote for Trump in the 2024 U.S. Presidential Election even when he's the guy who did a Muslim ban when he was President and now encouraging the GOP to ban the Visas of protesting students who are not American citizens and to deport them if they protest again this summer/fall semester at Universities.
It makes me wonder if these students know what the fuck they're doing.

The crazies on the left and the crazies on the right...they will flip-flop in the blink of an eye whenever they see what they consider "a movement" that they think they can stamp their name on a movement in hopes the movement becomes monumental in history.
