“Our tipster said that former Obama insider Valerie Jarrett, former Secretary of State John Kerry and New York Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand were dining Wednesday night with others at Osteria Morini, the hip Italian restaurant near the Washington Nationals stadium. “Gillibrand has been a leading voice of the #MeToo movement, has called for President Trump’s resignation, and is talked about as a 2020 presidential candidate. “Kerry, of course, ran and lost his bid for the White House, and Jarrett was Obama’s top counselor. …”Some boys are secretly allowed into the All Girls’ #MeToo club when they go into hiding. So can you judge a man by the company he keeps? You bet your gin-soaked raisins that you can!
"The official withdrawal doesn't take place until after the election of 2020," Kerry said before adding, "the United States will come back.” "President Trump has decided personally that he wants to get out, but the majority of the American people want to stay in," Kerry said, suggesting that the majority of states and cities in America "will live up to Paris." “Kerry joined French President Emmanuel Macron, who is hosting more than 50 heads of state and global leaders at the Paris summit, which is aimed at tackling climate change. “It was two years ago this week that representatives from close to 200 countries gathered in the French capital and pledged to take decisive action on climate change. “Trump's decision to withdraw made the US the lone holdout to the non-binding treaty, following the subsequent signing-on by Nicaragua and Syria, the only two countries to have initially not signed. Nearly 200 countries joined the pact in 2015.”
“That report came after then Secretary of State John Kerry admitted that some of the money provided via economic sanctions relief to Iran - nearly $150 billion – would end up in the hands of terrorists. "I think that some of it will end up in the hands of the IRGC or other entities, some of which are labeled terrorists," he said in the interview in Davos, referring to Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps. "You know, to some degree, I'm not going to sit here and tell you that every component of that can be prevented.” “Today after various economic sanctions relief funds were supposed to help the people of Iran, thousands in the middle eastern country struggle in poverty. This economic hardship was the original impetus for the beginning of the protests and demonstrations this weekend, but it quickly became a movement against the Islamic Regime as well as Iran’s President Rouhani.”Neither Kerry nor CNN ever mentioned why they waited to reveal that nearly $150 billion – would end up in the hands of terrorists after the proverbial horse was out of the barn.
“Washington Post said, “After a night of escalating unrest saw attacks on government buildings and violent confrontations with police, the moderate president, reelected to a second term in May, took a conciliatory tone.” That statement occurred as two protesters were killed, the country stopped certain internet access, and hundreds of protesters chanted “Death to Rouhani.” (Townhall)That’s John F. Kerry’s action from the trenches of the ‘Resistance’ over the past few months.
“Former U.S. secretary of state John Kerry was on the Aga Khan's private island at the same time as Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's ill-fated family vacation last Christmas break, CBC News has learned. “After almost a year of opposition attacks, Trudeau was forced to apologize on Wednesday for the way he handled the trip, after the federal ethics watchdog determined he violated some provisions of the Conflict of Interest Act when he vacationed on Bell Island in the Bahamas and took the Aga Khan's private helicopter to get there. “In her report, Conflict of Interest and Ethics Commissioner Mary Dawson noted that other guests, including someone who she only described as "a senior American official of a previous administration," and friends of those other guests, were also on the island between Dec. 26, 2016 and Jan. 4, 2017. “A spokesperson for Trudeau confirmed Thursday it was Kerry, a one-time Democratic presidential candidate. “A government official, speaking on background, told CBC News Kerry was there at the invitation of the Aga Khan and happened to be there at the same time as Trudeau. “At the time, Kerry still held his cabinet position in the Obama administration. U.S. President Donald Trump won the presidential election in November but didn't take the oath of office until his Jan. 20 inauguration. “While it's not clear what exactly Kerry was doing on the Aga Khan's island, Dawson's report showed Trudeau talked to the Aga Khan about geopolitics, the Muslim world, Canadian leadership on the global stage and problems the Aga Khan was facing.”So, talented CFP cartoonist, Mr. Dag, your suspicions of a John Kerry flying below the radar while out of office, are well-founded. In hiding, John Kerry remains the same way he was in office: lying with the dogs and catching fleas.
