Quid violated the Logan Act
According to Ben Rhodes ,one of the emperor's top foreign advisors; Quid has been talking to foreign leaders actively shaping his foreign policy agenda. To refresh your memory ;Michael Flynn acting in his role as incoming National Security Advisor had a conversation with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak about what the future Trump foreign policy would be re : relations with Russia . Based on that conversation ;Quid and Sally Yates expressed mock concern ;and Quid recommended that Flynn violated the Logan Act . Based on the FBI "investigation " that amounted to a perjury trap ;Flynn was charged .
Now as you know ,I believe it is a perfectly legit role that a President elect and his foreign policy advisors speak to foreign leaders about their future policy agenda. In fact I think it is critically important that an incoming administration has it's foreign policy in place and are ready to hit the ground running . It just speaks to the hypocrisy of the Dems that they would criminalize such behavior from an administration of the opposing party .
Ted Cruz confronted former FBI assistant Andrew McCabe today in Senate hearings today ,McCabe of course lied in testimony .
