Remember When Trump Accused Kerry of Violating the Logan Act? Uh-Oh
Astonished Republican Senators are abruptly calling for Kerry to be investigated if not fired by Biden outright
2 May 2021 ~~ By Jeffery Lord
Ya can’t make it up. Here – right here – is then-President Trump accusing then-former Secretary of State John Kerry of violating the Logan Act:
The Logan Act, to remind, was passed in the long-ago dawn of the Republic in 1799 – when John Adams was busy being the second President of the United States! To crib from Wikipedia, the Logan Act “criminalizes negotiation by unauthorized American citizens with foreign governments having a dispute with the United States. The intent behind the Act is to prevent unauthorized negotiations from undermining the government’s position.” Violation of the Logan Act is a felony. The Logan Act has been rarely used in American history. Yet it was in the news not that long ago that Democrats were demanding the Logan Act be invoked against then-President-elect Trump’s incoming national security adviser General Michael Flynn.
Recall that the accusation against Flynn revolved around his conversation with the Russian Ambassador – a conversation well within his rights as he was the named if not yet installed National Security adviser to the incoming president. There was nothing in the least wrong, much less illegal, about this. Way back in 1976, then ex-Georgia Governor Jimmy Carter, then the new Democratic presidential nominee, dispatched the longtime statesman and Democrat, Ambassador Averill Harriman, to the Soviet Union for talks with President Leonid Brezhnev. No one blinked.
But in 2017, 17 House Democrats on the Oversight and Government Reform committee demanded that because General Flynn “secretly discussed with the Russian ambassador, in possible violation of the Logan Act, sanctions imposed by President Obama” Flynn should be investigated and prosecuted.
In 2020, declassified documentsrevealed that in January of 2017 then-outgoing Vice President Joe Biden suggested in an Oval Office meeting with President Obama that Flynn be prosecuted. It didn’t happen. Flynn, take note, was later prosecuted for making false statements to the FBI.
Now? Now here comes the validation that what President Trump was discussing about John Kerry in 2018 was in fact correct. Kerry, per the leaked tapes out of Iran, was indeed having conversations with Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif. He is, with specificity, said by Zarif to have told the Iranian about “over 200 covert Israeli attacks on Iranian interests in Syria.”

All of which is to remind that, yes again, then-President Trump was 100% right about Kerry in 2018.

Comment:
It is well know that John Francois Kerry has in the past, negotiated with America’s enemies AGAINST numerous current (republican) administrations:
North Vietnam/USSR in Paris.
Nicaragua against Reagan.
Meeting with Syria's Assad against Bush (43)
Mexico, China, Russia against Bush.
Iran against Trump. (Earlier, with Iran and Iraq against Bush 2)
Syria
And now, with the IPCC against the US policies on global warming that promote American economic collapse.
If anybody should be prosecuted for the Logan act violation and treason, surely it is John Francios Kerry. He is the clear example, why this was enacted.

Remember when Trump exposed Israeli intelligence assets to the Russians?
 

Yes, he exposed them because he wanted to impress the Russians. The WH staff and state department were scrambling to notify Israeli intelligence and keep them safe. Trump is such a compulsive blabbermouth he could never get a security clearance.


On May 10, 2017, U.S. President Donald Trump disclosed classified information to Russian government representatives, creating political and security concerns in the United States and its allies, especially Israel. Soon after the meeting, American intelligence extracted a high-level covert source from within the Russian government, on concerns the individual could be at risk due, in part, to Trump and his administration repeatedly mishandling classified intelligence.[

When have you ever cared about Israel or their operations. Seems their government didn't appear to be that concerned. More is the fact that when the Prime Minister met with Bai Dung, Joey Xi took a nap during their conversation.
