John Kerrys bid to save one of his most significant accomplishments as secretary of state took him to New York on a Sunday afternoon two weeks ago, where, more than a year after he left office, he engaged in some unusual shadow diplomacy with a top-ranking Iranian official.
He sat down at the United Nations with Foreign Minister Javad Zarif to discuss ways of preserving the pact limiting Irans nuclear weapons program. It was the second time in about two months that the two had met to strategize over salvaging a deal they spent years negotiating during the Obama administration, according to a person briefed on the meetings.
With the Iran deal facing its gravest threat since it was signed in 2015, Kerry has been on an aggressive yet stealthy mission to preserve it, using his deep lists of contacts gleaned during his time as the top US diplomat to try to apply pressure on the Trump administration from the outside. President Trump, who has consistently criticized the pact and campaigned in 2016 on scuttling it, faces a May 12 deadline to decide whether to continue abiding by its terms.

Im pretty sure thats a criminal act.
L
Logan Act, plus we need investigation and prosecution of payoffs to Kerry from Iran, going all the way back to his 2004 campaign.
The point still is, follow the money. How much did Kerry get paid off by the Iranians and where is the money being hidden?
If he isn’t charged with a crime when he returns then it sets a precedent. Shame on Sessions and PDJT if so. I am the biggest PDJT fan, too, but I believe sadly the worst of this will just be a drudge report story.
Man, I’m so sick of this guy and his ego. Hey Kerry, why don’t you get back on your bike, rotate a few times and when you get hemorrhoids take some Preperation H.
No one has been convicted under the Logan Act. I hadn’t heard about it before they bandied it about against Trump during the pre-inaugural days when he was trying to get established on foreign policy. At the same time, Obama was laying parting presents to make life difficult going forward.
Kerry isn’t motivated by money, since he married it. However, he is a vainglorious fool, and in love with his self image.
Where is the worthless dirtbag sessions and rosenstein?
Cut up his passport so he can be a true citizen of the world... or a man without a country. Don’t care which.
It’s COLLUSION!
Quick! Somebody alert Adam Schiff!
If the kerry/Iran deal fails, perhaps there are some in the government of Iran that who will bring him to that country to personally show their appreciation for it.
Time to raid his and his lawyers’ offices. Bust in his door with guns drawn to serve a warrant. FISA every known associate. KARMA.
He thought he was talking to the North Vietnamese.
Sinking the Titanic was one of Captain E.J. Smith's most significant accomplishments.
Same thing he did cutting the legs out from America during the Vietnam war when he wrote a Peace Accord in Paris.
Illegal as a private citizen but never stopped him in Vietnam.

Go to hell, kethup boy.
I'm John Kerry, and I'm reporting for doody.
Kerry = Shadow diplomacy
Trump team = collusion.
