Sworn Trump enemy John McCain admits HE handed smear dossier to FBI
Daily Mail ^ | 01/11/17 | Darren Boyle

Posted on 01/11/2017 7:27:28 AM PST by Enlightened1

Sworn Donald Trump enemy John McCain admitted Wednesday that he passed the dossier of claims of a Russian blackmail plot against the president-elect.

The Arizona senator issued a public statement amid mounting questions of his exact role in the affair - and how a document riddled with errors and unverifiable claims came to be published.

'Late last year, I received sensitive information that has since been made public,' he said.

'Upon examination of the contents, and unable to make a judgment about their accuracy, I delivered the information to the Director of the FBI.

'That has been the extent of my contact with the FBI or any other government agency regarding this issue.'

But the 2008 Republican loser, who disowned his party's candidate weeks before the election, may have been far more intimately involved than that.

He hasn’t yet admitted it was the Hillary campaign who handed it to him.

To donate to the Republican Senatorial Fund is to donate to McCain.

To donate to the RNC is to donate to McCain.

He and Linda Graham need to fall into the abyss the next time they go off the deep end against their own party’s president. Jump ship and become democrats already.....get it over with.

Not just to the FBI, straight into the hands of the director of the FBI. Because McCain is just so important.

...”Recall McCain and replace him with Dr. Kelli Ward would be a great move!”...

McCain must be demented. Talk about not knowing the enemy! Do you suppose he has some kind of skeleton in his own closet that he is afraid will surface or does he just harbor blind hatred and envy of Donald Trump? I agree whole-heartedly with your suggestion.

It was me: Sworn Trump enemy John McCain admits HE handed smear dossier to FBI - as details surface of document’s bizarre journey from Moscow

Arizona Senator who disowned Trump before election admits he handed document outlining claims of Kremlin blackmail to FBI

Brief statement claims that he received it and gave it directly to FBI Director James Comey because he was ‘unable to make judgment about accuracy’

But Washington reporter Carl Bernstein says former British ambassador to Moscow handed it to McCain

Ambassador has not been named - and author of report also gave to FBI agent he knew at its station in Rome months ago

Report was apparently paid for first BY Republican enemies of Trump then by Democrats

He needs to resign, and fall on his sword.

Who would replace him for the rest of the term?

The Senate needs to call hearings on this, make McCain answer to what he did, and publicly humiliate him. I think complete disgrace will be the only way to get rid of him.

...”I think the pro-Trump Republican Senators should convene a hearing on this in the Republican caucus and call McCain to explain how he got this document.”...

This must be done immediately. This clandestine stuff must end. And, if he can not produce evidence to back up what he claims, then he should be recalled. The American people who voted for Trump are sick as can be of this treachery.

I hope Trump nails McCain and calls for him to resign.

I wonder how Meghan McCain will react to this on “Outnumbered”.

McCain has sterling sources in ISIS and Ukrainian government intelligence

Of course he does. We all know he's good buddies with Al Baghdadi.

First of all, out of lurking coming back from Retirement, John McCain, the liberal from Arizona, needs to retire.

What a tool. Reminds me of when the Nazis passed along fake documents implicating high ranking members of the Red Army of conspiring against Stalin. They Nazis knew their target and he took the bait decimating the Red Army officers cadre.

YES! I heard on FOX that even the NYTimes refused to have anything to do with spreading this story because, evidently, they could not find suitable verification.
