The correct response is: C. disloyal citizens promoting anti-Union activities When Abraham Lincoln suspended the writ of habeas corpus during the Civil War, his primary target was individuals who were seen as a threat to public safety and the Union war effort, such as those promoting anti-Union activities or rebellion. This measure allowed for the detention of suspects without immediate trial, aiming to suppress dissent and maintain national security during a period of intense conflict.
