Nothing will be done. John Kerry is a member of the political elite class that is immune from having to take any responsibility for its actions.
“ACLJ Obtains New Memo in State Department Lawsuit Unveiling Unreported Obama-Era Officials’ Secret Meeting With Iran’s Zarif During Trump Administration,” by Jordan Sekulow, ACLJ, May 24, 2022:
The Boston Globe put it this way: “Kerry is quietly seeking to salvage Iran deal he helped craft.”
The ACLJ put it a bit more bluntly: “John Kerry tried to undermine President Trump in order to support Iran, putting our national security at risk.”
Remember the stories that former Obama Secretary of State John Kerry – no longer in office as of January 20, 2017 – engaged in shadow diplomacy with Iran promoting foreign policy contrary to that of America’s sitting President, Donald Trump? As the story continued to unfold, and more information about the Left’s counter-diplomacy was revealed even just last year, the ACLJ went to work.
We launched a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request to the State Department, seeking records of State Department awareness of or involvement with Obama-era U.S. officials – aka, the Deep State – employing undercover backchannels in an effort to undercut President Trump’s cornerstone foreign policy of withdrawing the United States from the disastrous Obama/Biden Iran Deal.
In the FOIA lawsuit against the State Department that ensued, the ACLJ just obtained a never-before-seen “unclassified” October 2018 memo entitled, “Notes From ‘Iran and the US: An Off-the-Record Conversation with Foreign Minister Mohamad Javad Zarif.’”
According to this memo, the previously unreported “off-the-record meeting” took place at the “Iranian Ambassador’s Residence, NYC,” on October 4, 2018 – just days after major media coverage of Kerry’s admission of the secret efforts. The memo we unearthed contains notes on the former U.S. diplomats’ conversation with Zarif and his responses “to questions posed by a group of US former ambassadors and policy analysts.”
The key here is “former” – and the date, October 2018, right in the middle of the Trump Administration.
The newly obtained memo, regarding the secret meeting between Zarif and these former U.S. officials, included discussions of nuclear weapons, potential prisoner swaps, Afghanistan withdrawal and negotiations with the Taliban, Houthi rebels, Syria, Suleimani’s popularity in Iran, and the “region in turmoil.”…
The memo we uncovered shines a light, not just on the secret meeting itself, but also on Zarif’s rhetoric and unbelievable assertions as he attempts to persuade his listeners. For instance, he claims “Iran will never seek atomic weapons.” Well, I guess there’s no cause for concern here. And, “It is almost impossible to turn fuel rods into nuclear weapons.” Almost impossible. He goes on and on, spouting off his distorted pro-Iran view as if it’s fact….

kerry committed a Federal Crime…a felony. The Logan Act was written with this slime, son of satan, in mind.
kerry has an in-law who is iranian. he should be locked away for the remainder of his ugly life, and without any visits from family and without being allowed to speak; because he is a serial liar.
But while criminals are *in charge*….nothing right will happen to him, “bo”, rice, biden, clinton, pelosi, schumer, mcconnel, …on and on…too many in the gang to write all of the names. But, Someone knows all of the names and they will be called to account.

Trump shut down the remaining Islamic terrorist states and kept others from developing full-blown jihadism … including Iranian jihadic adventurism. Now the Bribed-man and Careless Kerry are trying to help the Taliban and the Iranians to whip up more jihad. What is wrong with their heads?
gravenimage says
Kerry met with Iran’s Zarif in 2018, worked actively to undermine Trump administration’s Iran policy
…………
How is this not actually treasonous?

I’m not an attorney, but it certainly smells like it to me gravenimage.

The Bribe(me) gang of which this serial liar is only one, should be indicted with a federal crime. He’s a turncoat of an aparatchik. Meeting with the Iranian foreign minister to discuss ways to undermine the 45.
That’s a serious crime.
But sadly we don’t have an honest administration. Kerry is the same perfidious one who flyes to climate conferences aboard his private jet to pontificate about carbon footprint, and how Americans must reduce their fossil fuels consumption.
Kerry, as well as his boss, the old gissard, together with old jug ears, they’re all guilty of treason against the United States of Amnesia.
OLD GUY says
How interesting, if I did the same thing with either political party in charge I’d be already in a federal prison cell. If you are RICH and CONNECTED you can get away with anything. Thats the ruling class LAWS for thee but not for me. Now take their position of wealth and power and you can understand why so many of them want the 2nd. Amendment changed to take our guns away. Once they accomplish that they will have total control. It has been done in the past and they will keep trying to gain that dominance.

Have the people of the USA had enough yet of the traitors that are willing to sell out their country and never have to be accountable in law?
If the upcoming mid term elections do not change the balance of power in Washington, then the US is lost, the evil rot will go on and ordinary every day Americans will become slaves to the left’s one world order level of tech and electronic control over every aspect of their lives.

“If the upcoming mid term elections do not change the balance of power in Washington, then the US is lost…”
Yes.
The Republicans need to take back both the House and the Senate in order to at least stop the bleeding…

Not the first time he has done this. Remember what he did in Vietnam. Went to Paris and negotiated with the Vietcong and sabotaged our war efforts.
tom reynolds says
Kerry has a long documented history of working with our enemies. A traitor in every sense of the word.
