Paul Ryan Aide, Rep. Adam Kinzinger Received Steele Dossier Early, Court Documents Show
Longtime associate of Sen. John McCain and Obamas top Russia expert also received report
GOP Rep. Adam Kinzinger and a longtime aide to Speaker Paul D. Ryan each were given an early look at the final report added to the infamous Steele dossier, court documents in a lawsuit against BuzzFeed News show.
Christopher Steele, the former British intelligence agent who compiled the unsubstantiated research booklet in 2016 about Donald Trumps connections to Russia before he became president, gave the report to Kinzinger and Jonathan Burks, Ryans longtime chief of staff, after he completed it on Dec. 13, 2016, according to the court memo.
In addition to Kinzinger and Burks, Steele also handed off the 17th and final report of his dossier, Report 166, to a longtime associate of Sen. John McCain and the top Russia expert on President Barack Obamas National Security Council.
REP. KINZINGER DEFENDS THE LATE JOHN MCCAIN IN OP-ED
WASHINGTON DC - Illinois’ U.S. Rep. Adam Kinzinger penned a defense of the late Senator John McCain Friday on Fox News.com, saying McCain was a mentor and hero to him. For the past three days, President Trump has publicly criticized Senator McCain and his family for disagreements the two held while McCain was still alive.
Senator McCain most famously defied the President’s efforts to overturn Obamacare when he appeared on the U.S. Senate floor before his death and with a thumbs-down motion defeated the measure.
Kinzinger writes:
John and I shared a similar world view and valued the freedoms that America provided us and millions of others. We agreed that America has a unique and important role in the world for human dignity and peace; to stand as a beacon of hope for others around the world.
The life of the Maverick McCain will be seen as a testament to the strength of the American character, and people around the world will forever see him as a symbol of courage, hope, and perseverance.
I still miss my friend, my mentor, and my hero, John McCain. I hope that we take the time to remember the importance of civil discourse, passion in ones beliefs, and the value of American leadership. God knows America, and the world, need it now more than ever
