President Trump Takes a Slap at Iranian Stooge Chris Murphy Over His Secret Meeting With a Terrorist State Leader
Yesterday, in an exclusive report Mollie Hemingway of The Federalist revealed that while at the Munich Security Conference that Connecticut Senator Chris Murphy had held a secret meeting with a leader of a state sponsor of terrorism who is currently under sanctions imposed by the US government. That terrorist douche would be none other than Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif. My colleague, Nick Arama, has all the details in Dem Sen. Chris Murphy Confesses to Secret Meeting With Iranian Foreign Minister As Well as Meeting with Ukrainian President.
Today, President Trump was asked about this meeting:
President Trump: “I saw that…Senator Murphy met with the Iranians; is that a fact? I just saw that on the way over. Is there anything that I should know? Because that sounds like to me a violation of the Logan Act.” pic.twitter.com/qOEwDaRptR

Let me be among the first to say that I think that the Logan Act is unconstitutional claptrap left over from the era of the Alien and Sedition Acts. Having said that, what is sauce for the goose is sauce for the f***ing gander. The Obama administration used the subterfuge of the Logan Act to target Trump’s designated National Security Adviser for discussing existing sanctions placed upon Russia at the direction of the President-Elect of the United States and while on the federal payroll as a member of that President-Elect’s transition team. At least Mike Flynn was in an official role and acting with authority. Murphy was not representing the US government in any way, shape, or form. He can’t even claim to be representing Congress as he’s a member of the Senate minority and there was no joint Senate-House delegation sent to meet this particular Iranian terrorist.
Reminder: Washington Post, other media, and Obama DOJ repeatedly used “Logan Act” claims to target Mike Flynn and push Russia collusion conspiracy against Trump affiliates. https://t.co/smQQtpJptE

Maybe McCabe and Sally Yates can ask some FBI agents to have a collegial chat with the Senator in his office and then- based on disputed false statements about zero criminal wrongdoing- prosecute him and ruin his career
Just kidding! they only do that to Trump officials. https://t.co/V1lRa1HkBF

Logan Act emergency! Logan Act emergency! Sound the alarm. Rouse General Sally Yates & mobilize the Defence of the Republic Legal Brigades. Alert Generals Comey & McCabe. We need eyes and ears in Murphy’s camp, a spy-like non spy informanty sort of guy. Civilization is in peril! https://t.co/AeUI00KFBD

Beyond simply making life a little more interesting for Murphy, there is another reason that he should be getting a proctological exam by the FBI. He’s essentially an undeclared agent of Iran.

“Murphy is a frequent speaker at the National Iranian American Council, a lobbying group with alleged links to the Islamic Republic of Iran.”He also criticized the killing of Soleimani, the world’s most notorious terrorist, who also killed more than 600 US soldiers in Iraq. pic.twitter.com/Ax1LhUWdhi

Murphy “also strongly criticized the open letter some Republican senators sent Iranian leaders during the Obama admin’s campaign for a nuclear agreement.”Murphy prefers a return to the Obama years of full-throttle appeasement vis-à-vis the murderous mullahs in Iran.

Kerry had met with Kamal Kharazi (Iran FM from 1997-2005). The one behind the door looks very similar to Abolghassem Delfi (current Amb to France). See photos for comparison. Please bear in mind these ppl aren’t diplomats. They’re diplomat-terrorists.h/t @HanifJazayeri pic.twitter.com/VZ8OmJHZ3b

There’s a lot more in that thread that ties Murphy to a lot of other key terror sympathizers in the US government.
I’m not a huge fan of one political party using federal law enforcement to target the opposing party. But, in this case, I’d be willing to make an exception. It would be payback for the abuses of the Obama administration for its dealings with Mike Flynn and for Crossfire Hurricane in general. It would be greatly amusing to watch Murphy sweat and twitch to explain his political fealty to the mullahs. And, ultimately, it would serve a great national good by forcing the courts to declare the Logan Act null and void and forever removing that tool from the quiver of the Democrats.
Where’s all the Logan act talk from the media. Why did he wait this long to say something and only come out when caught? Of course nothing will happen to this guy because he’s a dem and dislikes Trump.
Who cares if he’s taking secret meetings with the Iranians while in Senate? https://t.co/svaPuBYYc7
