One of the Senate’s leading Republicans predicted Sunday that there are “a lot more shoes to drop” in the probe of President Trump’s connections to Russia and said Congress must call top Trump associates to Capitol Hill to testify.
Sen. John McCain of Arizona told CNN’s “State of the Union” program that he remains troubled by growing evidence that leading aides to the president communicated with Russia throughout the presidential campaign last year.
He specifically said longtime Trump confidant Roger Stone, who admitted last week to having conversations with the hacking group that claimed responsibility for the breach of Democratic Party emails, must come before Congress to answer questions.
“There’s a lot of things about our relations with Russia that trouble me a lot,” Mr. McCain said. “There’s a lot of aspects of this whole relationship with Russia and Vladimir Putin that requires further scrutiny, and so far I don’t think the American people have gotten all the answers. In fact, I think there’s a lot more shoes to drop from this centipede.”
It’s been revealed that ousted White House National Security Adviser Michael Flynn and Attorney General Jeff Sessions each had meetings or phone conversations with the Russian ambassador during last year’s campaign.
Democrats and other critics have seized on those communications to make their case that the Trump campaign may have worked with Russian agents during the election, or at least passively let those agents work against Hillary Clinton’s presidential bid.
Specifically, they say the Trump campaign may have encouraged or willingly turned a blind eye to Russian hacks of Democratic Party emails and messages of Mrs. Clinton’s campaign chief, John Podesta. Both email dumps were deeply embarrassing for the Clinton campaign.

>>I wish a shoe would drop a scandal on McCain.
Other than the Keating 5 scandal?
I’ve given up on the good folks of Arizona to fire this SOB.
Well seems there are plenty of photos with pics of him and the goat humpers out there who wish to do America harm out there. The man is obviously working for the dark side (Obama and Soros) now.
John McCain is always in the process of screwing someone, and he is nobody's "friend" despite his unctuous use of the term.
Mr. niteowl77
We would be better off with an actual Democrat in his seat at this point
As well as it damn sure sure have been if only 10 % of them were true.
I am convinced there is some truth to the story’s about a lot of are politicians being blackmailed and this black mail being the reason for most of the democrats and a lot of republicans having a hissy fit about trump. I think the reason they are nervous about trump is that he has not left himself open for blackmail and he is very much aware of witch politicians are being blackmailed and who is at the center.
most of this I have pieced together from the half truths and lies that have filed the internet over the last 8 years. I believe that when you examine things like Pedogate. and the arrest of Epstein and the wrist slap he got you start to see patterns in the noise going on. I think that there was an attempt to get trump into a honey trap the one time trump visited Epstein’s Island and that this might even be one of the reasons trump decided to get into politics. I don’t think he wanted the job when he started to campaghn he just felt he had to do it.
Thanks to the great health care we taxpayers provide to scum like McCain, his type seems to far outlive most of us serfs. McCain, in particular, seems to feed off the hatred we have for him. And he doesn't care one whit about his state or this country. He is now singlehandedly giving the Dems cover for this ridiculous Russia smear of the duly elected President of the United States.
Congress is a sewer, and McCain is the sludge that flows through it.
It’s time to to initiate a special task force to find out what Juan is really up to after hours for extra overtime pay and what his real stakes are on making accusations against Trump. like to see where he’s going, who he’s meeting with, particularly if it’s at Obama’s new lair.
I wish McCain would drop.
Insecure servers, illegal servers and employees wanting to expose corruption not Trump's problem nor are Russians when we hack everything of theirs we can, but he did not turn a blind eye....he pointed out illegal activity and how corrupt the democrats are as a party and individually.
Where is McCain doing this??? That is because he is probably caught up in the illegal activity and needs Trump to fail to save himself and his family.
Corrected.
Juan’s hatred for DJT is palpable.
Another version of the Keating Five?
Be even better if someone slipped him a polonium Mickey.
He isn't jetting off (or jetting surrogates off) around the world to have face-to-face meetings for the hell of it... he is deliberately avoiding sigint.
Because he is dirty. Always has been, and has gotten worse.
Mr. niteowl77
Still striving to please the enemy.
He also screwed the American taxpayer and the Navy out of five airplanes he crashed or ruined, becoming the first Soviet ace of the Cold War era.
McCain is a nutcase that wants war with Russia.
