This could be the beginning of the end for embattled Sen. John McCain’s life in politics. According to White House officials, McCain is believed to have somehow gained access to the content of President Donald Trump’s private, classified telephone calls with world leaders. And he isn’t keeping quiet about what was talked about either.
An analysis of McCain’s recent public statements by White House officials, coupled with information from intelligence personnel working with the Trump administration, paints a disturbing picture for McCain — or any elected U.S. politician. Officials believe the senator has inside knowledge of a number of President Trump’s telephone conversations, including at least one conversation with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Even more alarming, officials believe McCain is secretly sharing this sensitive information with colleagues and his cabal of friendly mainstream media journalists in a dangerous clandestine campaign to damage Trump’s presidency even before it has a chance to succeed. Trump has been searching for media rats in the Beltway in recent weeks. White House aides are confident they have now outed one of the major leaks plaguing the early days of the Trump presidency. To everyone’s surprise, it is a senior senator supposedly belonging to the same side of the political aisle as the president.
McCain has been lambasting Trump to anyone and everyone who will listen since the newly minted president’s inauguration. This includes a Russian comedian who pranked McCain posing as Ukraine Prime Minister Volodymyr Groysman. Even during that troubling conversation, where McCain shared sensitive U.S. intelligence with an imposter, White House aides said McCain unknowingly exposed himself as having inside knowledge of Trump’s telephone conversations.
“He has been given transcripts or actually listened to the calls and is sharing what he has heard,” an administration insider said. “There is no doubt. He is one of the major leaks.”
Just last week, True Pundit published a troubling account of how a Russian comedian duped McCain, the Chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee. McCain incredibly even coached the phone-prankster-posing Prime Minister on joining NATO.
This audio recording of the phone call is absolutely incredible.
It’s time for Attorney General Jeff Sessions to determine the level McCain’s involvement and just how many laws he has broken.
I have no love for the political class....
they are ALL against we the people...
Bring him before a federal grand jury and listen to him sing.
FUJM
How is it True Pundit always has this information no one else does.
The left hasn’t needed evidence for years to destroy someone’s career.
As for indicting him, that’s a different story.
Many a politician has had to step down without being indicted on anything.
That would be a shame if Mclame had to :)
I wouldn’t bevsurprised. That said once again this is from “sources”...no names . That just doesn’t cut it any more
If President Trump did the sting on McCain where the information was slightly different, maybe he can prove it was McCain.
I think he’s also being paid handsomely for his treason.......Obama, Soros and the Saudis are buying off these traitors
No one is going to bash you. Even the President of the United States said he was no hero.
I hope “evidence” is found to be overwhelming :)
I know, I know. We’re better than that, etc.
The gentleman loser days died with George Will leaving the party. Thank goodness.
Yeah. I would love nothing more than to see him driven from office in disgrace, but this report seems pretty sketchy at this point.
“Embattled” in the lede, that can’t be good.
Perhaps it’s time to stage a fake phone chat between Trump and Putin, and make sure McCain gets a front-row seat, and then see how long before the fake phone call becomes public.
We will know its true when McCain takes his pistol and shoots himself—taking the honorable way out. That will prove his guilt.
This man is a low life traitor. See my Tag line.
Something is very wrong about John McCain, we’ve known it here on FR for a long time, even before he was the nominee in 2008. We lined up behind him anyway, reluctantly, with most having to talk themselves into it as being a vote for Sarah Palin rather than him, but we did, myself included. But, he needs to go. If this is what takes him down, I’m not going to be upset. The AZ governor is Republican. His appointed replacement will therefore be Republican. Inside baseball in the Senate as far as chairing committees and such will appear to be a loss, but honestly what good has McCain done with it? A junior Senator with his or her head screwed on straight would be an improvement in my opinion.
Maybe it’s already been done and the Russians pranked him into divulging planted misinformation.
Post of the day/night.
I can’t say exactly when I knew he was no good, but it was later than you guys.
Though we knew he was a crook since S&L. But I was so used to politicians being crooks I just let it go.
That was a mistake.
If in fact there is an audio tape of McCain talking or secret matters he will have to resign.
