John Kerry is trying to save the Iran nuclear deal: Kennedy

FBN’s Kennedy on how former presidential candidate John Kerry admitted to having multiple meetings with Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif.

People are up in arms Paul Manafort was lurking around former Soviet states lining his pockets in undisclosed adventures, but what John Kerry is doing is far worse if he's undermining the president, and ultimately the country, by trying to preserve his good name with bad decisions he's all too eager to repeat.
