The Israel Hoax just dropped.
Presidential candidate Donald Trump is being investigated for the alleged "massive crime" of making an unsanctioned phone call to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
As reported by Axios, the former president spoke on the phone with Netanyahu to discuss the Gaza hostage and ceasefire deal, citing two U.S. sources who were briefed on the call.
Donald Trump met with Netanyahu at Mar-a-Lago in July. Netanyahu also met with President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris during his visit.
According to Newsweek, if Trump did make the call, he would "potentially be breaking the law as the Logan Act, enacted in 1799," which "prohibits unauthorized private citizens from negotiating with foreign governments on behalf of the U.S."
American Muckrakers filed a request with the Justice department and the State Department over Donald Trump's alleged call.
Donald Trump's reported conversation with Netanyahu would be far from unusual, particularly for a former president or an ex-diplomat.
In March 2024, former President Barack Obama paid a "surprise visit" to Downing Street in the United Kingdom to meet with then-Prime Minister Rishi Sunak.
A British official told The Hill that Obama and Sunak discussed a variety of issues, including international affairs and artificial intelligence (AI).
During the Trump administration, former Secretary of State John Kerry met with the Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif in meetings that critics say were intended to undermine sitting President Trump.
