Trespassing law is state, and the state approves of these disruptions.

It says "as an accomplice", not "as a conspirator". The super-broad federal conspiracy rules aren't generally adopted by states. Anyway, your subdivision 2(a) (in the part you elided after the "if") only covers dwellings, banks and pharmacies, or if the burglar "the burglar possesses a tool to gain access to money or property". Your subdivision 2(b) only covers 609.52 (theft) and 609.595 (damage to property, which I didn't see happen). And there's still the issue of "without consent". So no, still not burglary.

Arguably, knowing that they will face serious negative consequences for their actions would make it much easier to refrain.
It is even easier to refrain if you know you would face serious negative consequences for your actions. Which you would, of course -- were you to smack them, their behavior would not even be in question. It is all a matter of who and whom.

Much of the right has decided to switch tactics from the failing "No, they aren't jackbooted thugs" (which is defeated by the left's control of the media) to "YES, TRUMP STOMP!". I doubt this will work better politically but it does annoy the footsoldiers of the left.

The Fifth Circuit reaffirmed, without any new argument, the summary dismissal on remand. Apparently they've been learning from the way the First, Second and Ninth circuits managed SCOTUS on gun cases. I imagine it will eventually go back to to the Supreme Court and (because this isn't a gun case) the Supreme Court will tell them that no, you do have to actually consider what we told you.
Officer-created jeopardy, on the other hand, is an untenable doctrine on its face... a similar thing doesn't even exist for civilians, and part of the job of police officers is sometimes to put themselves in jeopardy. Affirming that doctrine is basically making heroes of the Uvalde cops.

Churches are generally open to the public, which wipes out "with consent". Also what would the crime they intended to commit be? What they did was not burglary.
No, that is not how being an accessory works in the slightest.
