Don't try to tell me Seaoat has never played 'what if.'
The Logan Act if ever used to prosecute someone would be challenged as to its constitutionality. First, every corporation which has a lobbyist could be prosecuted for wanting changes in laws as they work with other nations. The Logan Act is constitutionally vague and does not give a potential defendant the required specificity required to be enforced. What, Fed Ex wants to expand its operations in Poland and discusses a tariff issue which causes delays in delivery with a Government agent when the United States has instituted that tariff on certain goods will result in executives of Federal Express being prosecuted as Felons.......Please. This is no different than the criminal statute concerning gross negligence in handling government documents which is right on the face of the statue and had our brainiacs crying out that Hillary was guilty. They forgot to mention that the Supreme Court in the 1940s found the statute unconstitutional unless their was intent to transfer documents to third parties. The statute is still on the books, but it fails the constitutional test. There is a reason nobody has been successfully prosecuted under that act, and it is the obvious unconstitutional nature of the act to make a criminal out of General Flynn's absolute right to talk to agents of another country about future policy when and if the new administration takes office. Honestly, Rachel Maddow has caused more damage seeking perfect at the expense of good that I hold her and all of MSNBC responsible for the election of President Trump as they increased their viewership giving candidate trump millions of dollars of free media time to drum up how stupid he was and how outrageous he was that they almost single handily gave him the office of President. Morning Joe was probably a worse offender than Rachel, and Bob and I would watch morning Joe religiously for the last five years and converse about what went on that morning. I have not watched one show since the election. The Fox News formula for viewership has been copied, and to suggest that the General is guilty under the Logan Act is absurd propaganda. Show me intent, quid pro quo, or treason in regard to Russian interference in the American election which has DIRECT evidence of the same, or wait for actual evidence. This is awful what has been done, and yet the mob just marches in lock step to support propagandist who profit from nonsense.
