Iran is the enemy of the United States, and has been for some forty years.  Some senators pretend to oppose efforts undermind our, the President’s, foreign policy:

“Any effort to undermine our nation’s foreign policy – even during a transition period – may be illegal and must be taken seriously,”

Then others only pretend to oppose attempting to sabatoge our foreign policy, from’Mollie Hemmingway, Federalist:

Sen. Chris Murphy of Connecticut and other Democratic senators had a secret meeting with Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif during the Munich Security Conference last week, according to a source briefed by the French delegation to the conference. Murphy’s office did not respond to repeated requests for comment by press time.

Such a meeting would mean Murphy had done the type of secret coordination with foreign leaders to potentially undermine the U.S. government that he accused Trump officials of doing as they prepared for Trump’s administration. In February 2017, Murphy demanded investigations of National Security Advisor Mike Flynn because he had a phone call with his counterpart-to-be in Russia.

“Any effort to undermine our nation’s foreign policy – even during a transition period – may be illegal and must be taken seriously,” Murphy said in 2017 after anonymous leaks of Flynn’s phone call with Russian ambassador Sergey Kisylak were published. He also strongly criticized the open letter some Republican senators sent Iranian leaders during the Obama administration’s campaign for a nuclear agreement.

Senator Murphy appears to guilty of with what the deep state set up to ensnare Lt. General Flynn.  Except of course that LTG Flynn was operating under the authority of the incoming President.
