I'd like to give my take on this. I'm not a lawyer, but studying law is a hobby of mine. I acquired this hobby a few years back when the government tried to railroad me into copping a plea on a BS drug charge. They searched me illegally and discovered some pills that I had in my car. I had a prescription for the pills, yet it still took me MONTHS to get them to drop the charges.
There are 2 issues to consider:
1. Do these charges have merit?
2. What is the practical likely outcome of these charges?
As for #1, the answer is that the charges are insane, totally baseless, completely absurd, and without merit according to the law.
Everyone wants to talk about subject matter jurisdiction, but few people are aware of a component to subject matter jurisdiction known as standing. The important elements of standing are (1)the violation of a right, and (2) injury (also known as 'harm'). In other words, if there is no victim, there is no crime. Period.
You will NEVER find an attorney that will admit to this, even though the Supreme Court has ruled hundreds if not thousands of times that this is the case. Here is a good website with some excellent relevant caselaw:

If you take the time to read those cites (sites? sorry spelling), you will soon discover that the entire judicial system of the USA is nothing more than an extortion racket. Consider that the government almost NEVER has a case, because almost all of the fake 'crimes' that the government prosecutes people for have no victim.
Which brings us to number 2. What will happen in the real world? Unfortunately, our government and especially our judicial system is run by criminals that don't care at all about the law. Ergo, this will probably end badly for the true victims- us.
