Don't laugh but at this point my working theory about @GenFlynn and the Logan Act is that the people in the Obama administration got the idea from the freaking West Wing cable TV show


An episode at the end of the series ("Transition") shows the outgoing lame duck admin in a foreign policy dispute with China and Russia. They carry out electronic surveillance of all calls with Russia and wiretap the incoming team and confront them about...

...the Logan Act!

That theory - while it sounds nuts - is actually more plausible than the other two:

a) The Obama FBI or Justice Dept. thinking they could prosecute the Logan Act against anyone, let alone an incoming National Security Advisor

b) Joe Biden even knowing what the Logan Act is


This guy has nailed other russiagate stories

Here is evidence that the obama team had watched the show in the past

I have a feeling they got a lot of ideas there.

This is outrageous. The left assured me that executive time was not allowed. This is just another projection added to an already long list.

Just the idea that some of the young dweebs working in the heart of our nation’s executive office watched a Hollywood/New York television show, took guidance from it, and implemented policy based on it sickens me to the core.

Remember the rape accusation against Trump that was based on the Law & Order episode? These fricking people. Lol.

At least Law And Order is stolen from the headlines, albeit twisted to fit Dick Wolf’s politics.

DUN DUN

I wouldn't necessarily say they got it from West Wing, I would say it's happened before, that's why it ended up in West Wing.

The things we see in movies and TV shows don't just happen by accident, the CIA puts them there. It was apparent before but Out of Shadows proved it.

Biden was not, is not, a legal scholar. That being said, he sat on the HJC for years. Chances are, they had a legal expert or two that may have spoke about the LA- maybe Joe paid attention that day and for whatever reason it stuck.

Most the time Joe speaks out his arse. But, in 2016, he may have had one of those lightbulb moments where that testimony popped to the front of his mind and his epiphany led to a plausible pretext (with the help of the MSM) to interview Flynn.

In normal times, Joe & Obama would be fricked as this is the single biggest ACTUAL scandal in our nation's history. But we've got a bunch groveling bitches of men and counts of women, and all manner of circus freaks in between, and their propaganda wing, who want to deface & cheer the destruction of 100 year old inanimate objects.

Obama and Biden should be tried for treason. If convicted they should be pay the ultimate price. Their crimes were against 63 million Americans and all the Americans who dies to preserve our democratic Republic.

Big surprise, Schiffs schemes come from screenplays as well. These people are the least impressive leaders in world history.

Hollywood is just the Democrat’s playbook. It’s how they communicate subliminally from the west coast to the east coast.

I finished bing watching west wing last week, 7 seasons, 26 shows per season. Hail Hail, fails to note the scene where outgoing president and incoming have a conversation explaining they are working together to pressure the Chico/ruski's into standing down and the wiretaps are being used to further that purpose.

west wing was a pretty good series, showed well that 95% of attention is given to firefighting, while no effort is given to planned activity
