Some law profs think it should be in play, and very well might be in Mueller's arsenal.

Your jails would be full of politicians if the US actually enforce that law.

I hear Trump is terrified Meuller will use the Logan Act on him.
He's already alerted the Secret Service that Meuller may send a Canadian with sideburns and claws to attack him.

Two things. First, I'd rather listen to a practicing (reality) lawyer. So do you have anything from Alan Dershowitz? Two, Mueller's arsenal apparently includes jay walking and loitering.

I thought a lot of legal/Constitutional scholar types say the Logan Act doesn’t pass constructional muster?

They should put Dershoswitz on The View.

It would be almost worth watching - just to see the cast's shock and horror run over their heavily made up faces, as a fellow Democrat explains reality.

I don't know what "constructional muster" means, but the article references a Supreme Court case that cited the Logan Act. They seem to think it was worth mentioning.

Seems a bit of a stretch.

If LBJ didn't go after Nixon over Cambodia, I can't see Mueller going after Flynn with the Logan Act.

Of course, times have changed ...
