Murphy is an unauthorized usurper! The Logan Act states; (Any) citizen of the United States, wherever he may be, who, without (authority) of the United States. The body of Congress isn’t authorized to negotiate with foreign bodies, it’s an ignorant attempt at chaos’s to deny it

Connecticut Sen. Chris Murphy secretly met with Iran’s foreign minister during a security conference in Germany, prompting quick condemnation from the Trump administration concerned he may be undermining official US policy.

and yet, we don't complain when there's been Republican politicians who have visited Russia and Ukraine in the past year-hypocrites....

He should be in jail.

Charge Chris Murphy! The President did not send him there!😠😠 Traitor!

overstepped your authority young man.. thats WAAAY above your pay grade

Trump is not a conservative. That’s offensive to conservatives

They'd be fine if Rudy met with him.

We can’t kill the Taliban after 20 years of trying so now we have a cease fire agreement. I bet those who are squawking have never shouldered a rifle in combat. GOPChairwoman GOP GOPLeader SenateGOP HouseGOP seanhannity foxandfriends SpeakerPelosi SenSchumer

Donald Trump is the only one allowed to “shake things up”, I think.

Logan act violations

This is of the Democrats' own making. They attacked Tulsi Gabbard for talking to Assad during a peace expedition and they stood idly by as Clinton called her a Putin spy. Fuck their hypocrisy.

Yeah. He’s a congressman. That clears him to usurp the President?

He probably should be indicted and arrested for treason. But the liberals and you Democrats lovers in the news media. Will circle the wagons to not only protect him. But make excuses for this Behavior. And instead flip the script, and use it to bash the president !

It is literally his job. FakeOutrage by GOP and just ignorance by POTUS.

Let’s be clear, he denied at first and now refuses to tell us who else attended which allegedly includes John Kerry. If Kerry attended it’s a blatant violation of U.S. law

“Conservatives ‘including’ Donald Trump”?

Drop optimum OptimumHelp they have been outsourced out of the United States and they suck. Go with verizonfios

He met in private, not a public setting. Report the truth not what you want people to read. Violation of the Logan act.

The mafia boss Trump has Barr the balls Yep, we have all been really concerned after Obama used the DOJ to railroad and presecute innocent Americans who didn't like his political agenda of DESTROYING AMERICA!
