John Kerry Isn't the First Massachusetts Democrat Accused of Assisting an Enemy

The audio file received by Iran International contains only one brief sentence from Zarif, where complaining about the power of the Revolutionary Guard over Iran's foreign affairs he asks rhetorically, "Should Kerry tell me that Israel has conducted more than 200 attacks against us in Syria?".

This would make a big difference if Kerry were to stand accused of divulging intelligence to Zarif.

The Times story alleges that Zarif was hearing Kerry's words "To his astonishment," but it's unclear if he was astonished that he had to learn this information from Kerry instead of his own government or if he was astonished that he had learned it from Kerry at all.

In some quarters, the reaction to the Zarif-Kerry allegation has been swift and strong: Sen. Dan Sullivan, a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee-and no hair-trigger headline-grabber-was moved to say, "People are talking about treason-and I don't throw that word around a lot. John Kerry does all kinds of things that I can't stand. But this is the one that broke the camel's back." Indeed, Sullivan later called upon Kerry to resign from his current climate post.

It must be noted that Kerry stoutly denies the allegation, and yet as The Federalist's Mollie Hemingway noted in a tweet, "Biden administration had originally claimed it was no big deal because information that was allegedly revealed was actually public information. Now Kerry claims it never happened."

So now we can see why John Kerry should be optimistic about skating past the Zarif revelation.

Yes, many Republicans and conservatives are hopping mad, but today the Democrats control not only the MSM, but also the Congress-and so no Congressional committee is likely to probe Kerry.
