The Logan Act

Originally posted by Rogillio "MOLLIE HEMINGWAY: For a year and a half, we've had everyone in the media and law enforcement claim with a straight face that there's something called the Logan Act which is this 18th-century law that prohibits people from doing freelance work with foreign governments. It is clearly unconstitutional, it would never be enforced. And yet it was used to query Mike Flynn and contrary to what James Comey said in his interview with you, that was the interview where the FBI agent said he gave no evidence of lying. And yet, it was because they were doing a Logan Act query supposedly because he shouldn't have been talking to Ambassador [Sergey] Kislyak as part of his duties as the incoming National Security Advisor. Here you have John Kerry who has no role in the administration doing freelance work trying to save a deal that is completely contravening the goal of the Trump administration. And all those people who were claiming that the Logan Act was real thing are oddly silent right now." So my thinking is the FBI needs to execute a no-knock raid at 0400 hrs on the Kerry home....with guns drawn and Theresa Heinz still in her jammies. Seize everything including Kerry's computer and his road bike. Bust in like he is a drug lord holding a M-203 grenade launcher behind the door saying "Say hello to my lil friend!!" Manafort and his wife can tell you, there is new standard for investigating white collar crime these days. No more Martha Steward kid gloves or oven mittens. They need to strike fear into the hearts of the accused before they hit the delete key!
