That sure sounds like it's possible Flynn or other Trump officials was trying to meddle in foreign affairs before he was a representative for the government, said Stephen Vladeck, a law professor at the University of Texas. It's possible the special counsel could whack Flynn or other campaign officials with this charge to get them to cooperate in the investigation.

Flynn's contact with the Russian ambassador "seems to violate what the Logan Act intended to prevent," Zeldin said. He added that even though the Logan Act hasn't been used successfully "it doesn't mean that Mueller wouldn't consider using it to pressure defendants."
The Logan Act, which was passed in 1799, forbids private citizens "without authority of the United States" from negotiating with foreign governments with an "intent to influence" measures or conduct of that government regarding any "disputes or controversies." -

This would be more impressive if they announced that these flights have been going on for several years and nobody has ever caught them on radar. Heck, even if it was not true.
From what I've read, NK can not detect the stealth aircraft

Americans spend too much, period. It's a nanny state on steroids.
It will be a good shutdown, when there's no money to pay for WH staff (or pay for electricity or water), and Trump has to make a fire of twigs on the WH lawn to roast acorns - in order to get breakfast.
Perhaps. But the US seems to have done quite well over the years. Hard to argue with success. And no worse a nanny state than most other western nations.

Can you show which court of law (indictment ) that charges the PT transition team for violating the Logan Act? .Because I didn't know they where being charged .
It's been proven. Waiting for the prosecution now.

Hope when Russia gets banned, there also going to be another big power country that is also going to be banned. We all know what country that is.
China did some dodgy stuff for their Olympics. Research the birth certificate scandals.

While Mr. Trump has disparaged as a Democratic “hoax” any claims that he or his aides had unusual interactions with Russian officials, the records suggest that the Trump transition team was intensely focused on improving relations with Moscow and was willing to intervene to pursue that goal despite a request from the Obama administration that it not sow confusion about official American policy before Mr. Trump took office.

Tomorrow's news........ North Korea fires another missile higher and further than any previous missile...... blah blah blah!
The recent launch seems to have had some pictures altered by the NK government. They are questioning the veracity of it.

It is certainly possible he may have unrecorded loans or been vastly overpaid in asset sales. Those are so rare something dodgy going on would be the natural assumption. The Special Prosecutor's mandate seems to be shifting a bit though. If he doesn't come up with something substantial from this line of inquiry he's going to get accused of being on a fishing expedition, and not without some justification.
Muller and his team are the best of the best. They'll come up with a lot. And already have. Love how he's taken down a few lobbyists already. Scum.

The only valid reason for Trump to exist as President is so that the American people finally unify and demand a complete overhaul of their political system.
If that happens, it will be worth the BS we're going through. It's desperately needed.

Given how much equity he has in most of his projects his finances don't look that shaky; though you couldn't pay me to hold his paper.
That deal he did in Florida with his home seems really dodgy.
One thing I read is they want to see if Russia has him by the short ones due to loans coming due.

Yes I agree with you in theory BUT how do you propose to eliminate all doping from sport? It is like the war on drugs, you just can't win. By legalizing all sport doping you do create a level playing field. That is my point. Of course IF you could 100% stop all doping in sport then that would be better, but I suggest that is impossible. It's not as if we didn't try but let's get real and level the playing field.
Olympic officials are doing an ok job. It's not easy. But much better than letting athletes ruin their lives by taking drugs. Impossible to allow that.
Let them do the best job they can. Which they are.

Actually it might be nice to here another side to this story whether you want to believe it or not. Way too much on all these investigations is being kept secret.
What other side? That of a criminal?
You need to research how investigations are done. LOL

No. Not splitting hairs. Just not calling people I disapprove by using every pejorative term I can think of. Next thing you know, you'll be saying that psychopaths are cowards with your own private definition of the word.
Hard not to disapprove of a mass murder like Mao. But glad to hear you are such an expert on mental illnesses.

The Financial Times has a good article regarding this and I would tend to believe them and their sources over SHS and/or 45's lawyer.
Hard to believe Trump's lawyers. They already messed up big time. And Sarah Sanders just backs up the liar in chief.

It has long been my opinion that in sport, doping is fine. All can do whatever they want to enhance their performance. As we can see, the vast majority of sportsmen(if not all) use performance enhancing drugs and take crazy measures to pass dope tests. It is a farce. Look at Mr Clean in cycling Lance Armstrong - but he wasn't clean was he? In bodybuilding Mr Clean was Arnie - also a steroid freak. Let them do whatever they want and it creates a level playing field. Beta blockers for dartsmen, snooker players and shooters etc is fine, just as steroids for track and field is all part of a normal training program. Honestly if someone competed fairly they would be left at the starting post.
That's a horrible thing to say. If they competed fairly, you'd have a fair race! All based on training and personal skills. Not drugs that harm your body.

Alexei Kurashov, president of the Russian freestyle federation, added: "The Olympic movement has discredited itself and there will be fundamental consequences to this.
That's the Russian way. Get caught doing something wrong then threaten those who caught you.
Horrible news for the clean athletes.

I am liking the Trump administration and appreciation that he putting a spot light on the bias media and, stirring the swamp and, rubbishing Theresa May. All perfectly justified in my book.
You need a better news source. He only spotlights media bias when it's against him. He's filling the swamp, not draining it.

Good or bad move, time will tell, but something has to be done to shake

Has bigger things to deal with. Can't believe his supporters even care about this.
Perhaps he's just doing it to take attention off his investigations?

What a horrible president. Just doing this because it was initiated by Obama.

Disgusting post. You've got no idea regarding native American Indians. Definitely something that would come from an uninformed Trump supporter.
And yes, I'm native American Indian.
Horrible post.
