--- "Regarding Macgregor, I am thinking he should register as a foreign agent. Ditto Hunter Biden."

A fascinating assertion.

By legal definition a foreign agent is defined by and regulated by FARA. "The Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) was enacted in 1938. FARA requires certain agents of foreign principals who are engaged in political activities or other activities specified under the statute to make periodic public disclosure of their relationship with the foreign principal, as well as activities, receipts and disbursements in support of those activities.

Have you proof of MacGregor's "activities, receipts and disbursements in support of" Russia? Payment would be involved and traceable.

If so, please make you concerns known to:

FARA Office: (202) 233-0776
(202) 233-0777
If not....

I gather you are for the Putin form of justice.

Here in the U.S., when a person says, “I am thinking,” it only means that they’re thinking. It doesn’t mean they’re sending out agents with polonium 210 in order to kill the man.

To my knowledge, the only person prosecuted for failing to register as a foreign agent was Paul Manafort, a Trump associate. Yet, it seems to me, lots of people on the other side of the political spectrum have taken money from foreign governments and haven’t been prosecuted.

My concern, being an American, is equal justice under the law.

You seem to think that before there is an investigation, there must be proof. No. Here in America the standard is reasonable suspicion. Upon reasonable suspicion, law enforcement can obtain a search warrant, or a wiretap, or look at somebody’s bank records. When the FBI went after Donald Trump based on Hillary Clinton’s dossier, since proven to be fake, they came up empty. Then, the FBI completed a false report on their own, to continue to go after Trump.

When that report was proven to be false, were the FBI or Hillary Clinton or, for that matter, John McCain charged with conspiracy to deprive an American of his constitutional rights? No. Of course not. Those laws only pertain to Trump and his supporters. Not to the other side.

Finally, like a typical Russian, when I said Macgregor wasn’t a traitor but may have to file as a foreign agent, you didn’t see the part where I defended Macgregor. This is because in Russia, there’s are no gradations to the law. Whatever Putin decides violates the law gets the death penalty or life in prison like Navalny.

Equal justice means both pardon or commutation of sentence for many of the J6 people; and, reconsideration of sentences for antifa and others engaged in “mostly peaceful demonstrations,” that actually are riots with lots of assault, arson, vandalism and theft, at least going forward.
