It IS The Logan Act that has been violated by the 47 Senators.

[Hutzpa]

Here is what the act states clearly;

Any citizen of the United States, wherever he may be, who, without authority of the United States, directly or indirectly commences or carries on any correspondence or intercourse with any foreign government or any officer or agent thereof, with intent to influence the measures or conduct of any foreign government or of any officer or agent thereof, in relation to any disputes or controversies with the United States, or to defeat the measures of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both.

This section shall not abridge the right of a citizen to apply, himself or his agent, to any foreign government or the agents thereof for redress of any injury which he may have sustained from such government or any of its agents or subjects.

Now that we understand the crime committed, what can the Democrats do to show this action does not go unpunished and in the process send a message to others?

1) They should first strip them each and every member whose name appears on the list of their privileges in Congress.

2) Since their action is to do with National Security, all correspondences should be monitored by DOJ and Homeland Security. From phone conversation to fax messages right down to people they interact with.


3) or they can choose to go to jail for three years.

Bottom line, the Obama administration and the Dems in Congress have just found themselves a bunch of poodles they can pet and be friends with.
