Senator John McCain Pushed Trump Dossier to the Intel Community
Big Government ^ | 11 Jan 2017 | John Hayward

Posted on 01/11/2017 11:50:54 AM PST by drewh

The Daily Mail on Wednesday reported that Senator John McCain (R-AZ) pushed the dossier full of unverified claims about Donald Trump to the FBI:

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 Daily Mail – which, it should be noted, seems to like McCain about as much as McCain likes Trump – argues that the “2008 Republican loser” might have been “far more intimately involved than that.”

Watergate legend Carl Bernstein is quoted telling CNN that McCain got the dossier from the former British ambassador to Moscow, who in turn got it from that mysterious “former British MI6 agent who was hired from a political opposition research firm in Washington” that we’ve been hearing so much about lately.

McCain is a disgrace, and should resign. If he doesn’t, AZ should have a recall election.

Apparently MCCAIN cannot make a judgment between reality and fantasy.

At his presser this noon, Trump said that within 90 days he will have a report (including this event) and other cyber attacks on his desk.

I hope they have Trump protected very well, because this could bring down quite a few people.

McCain helped start ISIS, help destroy the Ambassador,
and began the IRS attacks on conservatives.

Arizonans will go to Hell for what their representative
has done. Slavery. Rape. Murder. Crucifixion.
.... or they will remove the POS.

Isn't it interesting that none of these reports mention anyone by name...

People really need to pay attention; not only are the MSM, McCain and Company trying to take Trump down- they are pushing us toward war with Russia. Craziness.

The North Vietnamese war hero would have JUMPED to be a part of anything that could possibly hurt Trump.

They are afraid that he will restore the rule of law and control of our borders.
They work for the Cheap Labor Express, not the citizens.

This is CNN, John McCain, the Brits and possibly the Russians trying to influence U.S. public opinion about a U.S. president elect.

Let's do sanctions on all of the above.

McCain is a Never Trumper, so he obsessively hates Trump. When it comes to Trump, Never-Trump Republicans are no different from Democrats. All that matters to them is defeating Trump; their families, country, and themselves are secondary.

Can Trump sue him for this?

Make him live out his days in a trailer park outside Flagstaff?
