Did Pelosi commit a felony?


Pelosi's trip to Syria to conduct foreign policy might well have been illegal, according to the little-known Logan Act:
The Logan Act makes it a felony and provides for a prison sentence of up to three years for any American, "without authority of the United States," to communicate with a foreign government in an effort to influence that government's behavior on any "disputes or controversies with the United States."
At a minimum, her attempt to circumvent the authority of the executive branch was shameful. Hopefully the American people will begin to realize why you can't trust the Democrats on foreign policy.
