John Kerry’s 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 Iran’s 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.

On who’s behalf?
More sedition from Lurch...
Logan Act?
Other than maximizing genocide, ethnic cleansing, human misery and Asslam, I can see no purpose to the Obama era’s foreign policy, if there was one.
Someone in the DOJ should talk to Kerry about the implications of violating the Hatch Act.
Logan Act violation but hey no biggie, its a Democrat doing it so its all good
Will Kerrey have to give back the bribes he pocketed if President Trump terminates the deal?
What about Obama? Will he have to pay it all back toooo..?
HRC?
Valjar?
Rhodes?
Corker?
Sedition
This is too much. Someone needs to take Lurch down a peg or five.
He’s out of power and out of time to undercut this country.
Logan act for sure but no one in our Judciary has the stones apparently to charge him.
That’s what I’m thinking. If this doesn’t violate the Logan act, what does?
Kerry was so damned determined to get a Nobel as a consolation prize for not being president that he foisted that dog’s breakfast on the nation.
The Logan Act for thee, but not for me.
Is Kerry working for the Iranians now?
Traitor kerry did a similar thing with the north vietnamese in paris many years ago. What a traitor and gigolo loser.
How can you do this if collusion is so evil? Flynn is charged with lying about discussing sanctions. How can this be permissible? Separate rules for democrats.
Kerry should practicing what his brief words will be, following his trial and conviction, when he stands before the multitudes gathered to cheer as they watch him take that short drop and quick stop.
John, your ILK is not in charge anymore, the adults are.
Watch you 6 lest you finally be charged with treason.
Bunny Boy
That doesn’t even sound legal. So he’s conspiring with a foreign government, without the permission the U.S. government?
Shouldn't he be spending his spare time scouting his next meal ticket?
Senator Swift Boat forgets that the patriots are in charge now.
Go back to your sand box Johnny.
