REPORT: Former Obama Staff Colluded With Iran to Undermine Trump
https://pjmedia.com ^ | FEB 23, 2021 3:03 PM ET | BY TYLER O'NEIL

A slew of former Obama officials, including Kerry, Obama’s Middle East advisor Robert Malley, and Obama-era Secretary of Energy Ernest Moniz, met with Zarif during the Trump years. Kerry, Malley, and Moniz led negotiations in the 2015 Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), in which the U.S. provided sanctions relief and access to tens of billions of dollars in frozen bank accounts in exchange for Iran’s promises to limit nuclear enrichment.

Trump pulled the U.S. out of the deal in 2018, citing the need for a tougher agreement that also addressed Iran’s support for terrorist groups and its destabilizing behavior in the Middle East. Yet a former senior U.S. official told The Washington Times that Zarif met with Democrats like Kerry multiple times in 2017, 2018, and 2019, before the Trump administration halted his visa in 2020.

The former official told the Times that Zarif’s meetings aimed “to devise a political strategy to undermine the Trump administration” and to build support for a new version of the Iran deal in case a Democrat returned to the White House in 2021.

Kerry acknowledged meeting with Zarif at least twice in the early years of the Trump administration. He told radio host Hugh Hewitt that there was nothing secret about his meetings with the Iranian minister. Kerry said he intended to find out “what Iran might be willing to do in order to change the dynamic in the Middle East for the better.”

So? Nobody cares but conservatives. And it appears the only conservatives who care are those who post on FR. Because the information isn’t disseminated on any other source.

Swiftboat Rear Admiral Kerry has a daughter married to a radical Iranian and did his best to undermine President Trump and should have been censured if not charged with treason.

Moniz and the Kerrys and Zarif must have laughed
that they were going to take down POTUS with
a stolen election backed by the MSM (and bragged
about by Biden, BRAGGED ABOUT before the fact).

no accountability EVER. so there was more
and the USA was brought down to a laughing, raping DS.

The word Treason is overused, but it applies here.

Kerry is a double agent whose greater loyalty is to Iran.

But at least John Kerry was not colluding with the Russians!

I mean, I’d hate it if John Kerry (who served 93 days in Vietnam ya know, then spent 18 months negotiating with the communists in Washington DC and Paris) was falsely accused of colluding with the Russians and then impeached - when he was actually colluding with the Chinese and Iranians. And Nicaraguan and Cuban governments.

I’m sure the FBI will treat this like a garage door noose...not.
What a great country we have when the CIA/DOJ are extensions of the democrat party.
I guess when you are ‘amoral’ you get to decide which laws to enforce and which you can ignore.

“Kerry, Obama’s Middle East advisor Robert Malley, and Obama-era Secretary of Energy Ernest Moniz, met with Zarif...”

The zits in the press tend to have a double standard:
