      Glenn Greenwald Retweeted Ilhan Omar

      Foreign policy dissidents have the greatest interest in repealing the Logan Act, not wielding it as a weapon to shield ex-CIA Directors while heralding it as a clearly defined criminal statute -- like this:https://twitter.com/IlhanMN/status/1332529361841496065 …

      Glenn Greenwald added,

      Ilhan OmarVerified account @IlhanMN
      Legally, a tweet in this case wouldn’t constitute a violation of the Logan Act. It’s one-sided communication and even if directed at a foreign power, seems to fall outside the statute’s scope. And even with a variety of interpretations, this episode isn’t a Logan Act violation. https://twitter.com/ggreenwald/status/1332420346742513664 …

      The *only* time the Logan Act has ever been used to indict anyone -- 217 years ago -- was when a Kentucky resident wrote an Op-Ed agitating against US war posture toward France -- exactly what @IlhanMN, based on nothing, claims falls outside the statute's scope:pic.twitter.com/GVqre2PcOF

          All of this matters not only because of the perniciousness of the Logan Act, but also because of what it says about Trump-era liberal-left politics. That the Logan Act is a dangerously vague and unconstitutional statute was, until quite recently, a consensus among US liberals.pic.twitter.com/4929cu95tO

          Recall in 2015 when liberal law professors and Dem Party activists demanded that Tom Cotton and 46 other GOP Senators be prosecuted under the Logan Act for their Open Letter to Iran. How does that square with @IlhanMN's claim that it doesn't bar one-sided communications??pic.twitter.com/uHaVKFFbdi

          Once you start arrogating unto yourself the right to use authoritarian and lawless methods, and to align behind repressive institutions CIA and FBI, you become exactly what you started off believing you were fighting. The Logan Act is repressive in part because of how vague it is

          Anyone who values the right to dissent from US foreign policy should be doing nothing on the Logan Act other than what Ted Kennedy did for all those years (and what many conservative commentators now do): demand its full and immediate repeal. Jarring to see @IlhanMN defend it.

          Two things I never though I'd see: 1) @IlhanMN defending John Brennan, who bombed and killed civilians in numerous countries including Somalia, and 2) @IlhanMN defending an old, repressive law designed to criminalize dissent from US Foreign Policy. Welcome to Trump-era politics.

          I’ll take a closer look, but I think you’re missing a big part of the picture —https://twitter.com/samhusseini/status/1332708038285938690 …

          Sam Husseini added,

          Sam Husseini @samhusseini
          And the call by Brennan (or Flynn) for Iran (or Russia) to suck it up bc a new administration is coming actually highlights the utility of the hypocritical duopoly rather than violations of the Logan Act.

          Far be it from her to do her homework or speak truth. She's just another America-hater who likely required Dominion to get in office.

          Flynn was investigated as part of Crossfire Hurricane, not because of a Logan Act violation.
