Susan Rice, the former UN ambassador under President Barack Obama and aide to President Joe Biden, argued that former President Donald Trump may have broken the law with his reported phone calls to Vladimir Putin as a private citizen.
Former United States Deputy Secretary of State Wendy Sherman wrote on X that the new reporting from Bob Woodward on Tuesday about Trump's continued ties to Putin shows that clearly @realDonaldTrump works for Vladimir Putin; not for the American people. Dangerous, outrageous, disloyal, disqualifying.
Additionally, this would seem to be a violation of the Logan Act. Exactly what Trump falsely accused John Kerry of. Another apparent Trump crime.
The Logan Act makes it illegal for American citizens to negotiate with foreign governments in dispute with the United States without prior approval, was introduced in 1799 and is meant to prevent unauthorized diplomacy from undermining the current administration's position.
