I’m thinking the majority of the GOP in Congress should be forced to register as foreign agents.

It really is Sideshow Bob and his brother Cecil. It really is rake after rake after rake.

When a Trump Dump accuses, you can be 100% certain that they are Admitting.

Jeff, the obvious corruption and incompetence of the “Jim and Gym Show” that continues to play in a loop, over and over, different players, same outcome of stupidity and laughing stock reviews. I enjoy the context you use to put every Republican side show out there for us to observe the inevitable melt down that leads to the next absurdity. So fun to read!

When the people they want to use against the Bidens are far far worse than anyone else could possibly be. Comer and Jordan are the kinds of people you can't wait to see get their visit from Karma.

If this were a movie plot, it would be unbelievable

Strictly speaking being an unregistered foreign agent is itself not the same as being a spy. It's illegal, but being a "spy" depends on what you DO and intend as that agent. This is one thing the DOJ looked into for Hunter Biden--they have apparently decided that his being within the definition of unregistered agent was inadvertent, not intentional.

The OTHER stuff Old Gal did seems to show this was NOT inadvertent.

Being an unregistered foreign agent was something Paul Manafort was charged with. He denied the intent but he pled guilty to it as part of his plea deal. I can't remember what exactly he did that prompted the charge, but the prosecution's threat seemed to involve other issues. Again, intent matters in the charge.

Say you agreed to be the go-between between US wholesalers and a Swiss government owned cuckoo clock facility and agreed to promote their product. You would be a foreign agent and have to register, but if you didn't few would accuse you of being a spy for Switzerland. FARA: "Acts within the United States as a public relations counsel, publicity agent, information service employee, or political consultant. "

But I LOVE LOVE LOVE the point about the timing of the indictment [oops, see Jeff's correction] and the question about how the Forces of Jordan managed to talk to him.

Luft has dual US/Israeli citizenship. Want to bet he turns up in his other country claiming religious persecution here? Shameless.

Awesome summary of what happened. I doubt that it’s going to stop Comey and Jordan from continuing their shenanigans, but I’m glad you spell things out. We need to hear it like that, unvarnished!

It's amazing what two morons like Comer & Jordan can accomplish when they have no ethics, no morals, no loyalty, and no shame. Who is really pulling their strings, because there's no way those two Bozos worked this out on their own and neither did Trump?

I imagine the people that support these two cretins, are in a permanent brain fog and would not even get that Luft practices espionage and is an enemy of our country. They and their fellow MAGAts have lost all ability to reason, like a 2-year-old child who needs a nap. Fortunately, they do not, the majority make.
