Trump Was Right Again… Today’s Deep State Charges on Foreign Lobbying Could Spell Doom for John Kerry
Barack Obama’s former Secretary of State, John Kerry held secret meetings in May 2018 with Iranian officials to salvage Iran’s nuclear weapons program.
Kerry did not register as a foreign lobbyist.
President Trump slammed the former Secretary of State for not registering under the Foreign Agents Registration Act.
John Kerry had illegal meetings with the very hostile Iranian Regime, which can only serve to undercut our great work to the detriment of the American people. He told them to wait out the Trump Administration! Was he registered under the Foreign Agents Registration Act? BAD!

According to FOX News at the time:
The Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) is a disclosure statement that requires a person acting as an agent of a foreign principal in a political or quasi-political capacity to make public disclosure of their relationship with the foreign principal.
Kerry’s meetings do not appear to violate FARA, but some have suggested they could be in violation of the Logan Act, which prohibits private citizens from negotiating on behalf of the U.S. government without authorization, though no one has ever been successfully prosecuted under the law.
So is justice blind? Will John Kerry be charged with foreign lobbying violations? Our does the US legal system only apply to Republicans and their acquaintances?
