Oh, my gosh, the vandals in this case are the officials at Washington and Lee University (to be known henceforth as Washington and University?) https://www.wluspectator.com/articles/2023/7/12/traveller-plaque-on-stables-removed-grave-marker-to-be-replaced.
Unfortunately, we have our share of liberal asshoes in Virginia who have no idea how revered Lee was and is and it's not about the War in Defense of Virginia, as my great-grandfather's 7th Virginia Cavalry muster role terms it. Maybe we should sic the ladies of the UDC on them.
Has anyone found anything to verify this? I searched and the only thing I came up with is the original post in the link. It would certainly explain why Susan Rice is all over the liberal media trying to make Trump and Vance look bad and Zelenskyy look like a poor, picked upon victim.
I'm no lawyer, but this is the text of the Logan Act. I see nothing about having to have pretended to represent the country. "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."
If you scroll down here, there's a nice photo of the stained glass window honoring him at Muhlenberg Lutheran Church in Harrisonburg. (BTW, I'm certain the now gone church in Woodstock was a lot plainer than what's depicted.) https://cardinalnews.org/2023/12/12/a-time-to-pray-and-a-time-to-fight/
Thought you all would like to see the statues of Muhlenberg in front of the old courthouse in Woodstock. https://blogs.loc.gov/law/2023/06/shenandoah-county-historic-courthouse-pic-of-the-week/
You could make your own if you have trees in your yard. It doesn't have to be sugar maple. Our neighbor taps his white maple tree. The local company we buy syrup from makes it from black walnut and hickory trees on their property. There are so many small companies making syrup here in the Shenandoah Valley, they do a tourist syrup trail every year.
This is what they're up to, coming back at 6:30pm. The House is adjourned until 12pm tomorrow.

They aren't in recess. They were supposed to convene at 3 pm but aren't in session right now. Sometimes they adjourn to have time for a caucus to canoodle, sometimes to have time to armtwist recalcitrant members. The House adjourned minutes after convening this morning so I'm guessing they're all busy armtwisting or strategizing.
The name Greenland was an early marketing ploy to get people to go to the frozen land. Really. "Greenland was named by Erik the Red, who used the name “Greenland” as a marketing ploy to attract settlers. According to the Icelandic sagas, Erik the Red named it Greenland in the hope that the pleasant name would encourage people to settle there. Despite being mostly covered in ice, the southern fjords of Greenland do see some vegetation during the summer months, which supports the name to some extent."
