Russia Today Daniel McAdams: John McCain passed dossier to make Trump look bad; now he’s trying to s
Russia Today ^ | 18 January 2017 | Russia Today

McCain had a private meeting with FBI Director James Comey to hand him a dossier on Trump in a ploy to make him look bad, claims Daniel McAdams, executive director of Ron Paul Institute. Now McCain is attempting to disassociate himself from it, he added.

US Senator John McCain said last week's leak of an unverified report on Russia having compromising information on Donald Trump was “totally wrong” and that someone must be held responsible for it.

RT: John McCain, who passed the unverified information to the FBI himself now claims that those behind its leak must be responsible for it. What's your take on that?

Daniel McAdams: We should be clear what McCain’s role was in this. McCain is a chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, an extraordinary powerful individual in Washington DC. I think that what happened is that McCain is caught in the center of this controversy.

....Now he is trying to play the innocent. “Oh, I just did my duty,” he said. “I had no way of knowing whether this was valid damning information.”

If he’d been doing his damn job instead of going on the warpath against Trump it would never have happened. Worry about Arizona, Johnny.

No “hero” would block investigations into POWs and MIAs like McCain has.

If Medved agrees with something, it's actually pretty safe to assume you can oppose it and come out smelling like a rose.

Take these RINO’s off their precious committees and they lose the power they have. Can’t remove them from the senate but they can be neutered.

A lot of people don’t realize just how big a deal some of these committees are and how they get their butts kissed by the lobbyists to get the things they want. Take them off the committee and say goodbye to all the perks and the attention. It’s kinda like senate Purgatory. They go from hero to zero just like that. Bam.

I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if the RINO’s, once neutered, just resign rather than hang around the senate as a has been who is no more important than a freshman senator. Worse really because the freshman has something to look forward to; the neutered RINO’s don’t even have that.
