McCain associate subpoenaed in Trump dossier probe
Washington Examiner ^ | 12/27/2017 | Byron York

Posted on 12/27/2017 12:53:19 PM PST by mojito

House Intelligence Committee chairman Devin Nunes has issued a subpoena to David Kramer, a former State Department official who, in late November 2016, traveled to London to receive a briefing and a copy of the Trump dossier from its author, former British spy Christopher Steele. Kramer then returned to the U.S. to give the document to Sen. John McCain.

Kramer is a senior fellow at the McCain Institute for International Leadership at Arizona State University.

McCain later took a copy of the dossier to the FBI's then-director, James Comey. But the FBI already had the document; Steele himself gave the dossier to the bureau in installments, reportedly beginning in early July 2016.

McCain, recovering in Arizona from treatments for cancer, has long refused to detail his actions regarding the dossier. For his part, Kramer was interviewed by the House Intelligence Committee on Dec. 19. The new subpoena stems from statements Kramer made in that interview.

In the session, Kramer told House investigators that he knew the identities of the Russian sources for the allegations in Steele's dossier. But when investigators pressed Kramer to reveal those names, he declined to do so.

Anything that can be linked to McRINO is going in the right direction.

Yes, the left clearly wants it both ways:

1) Putin was colluding with Trump to make sure Clinton was defeated; except

2) Russian intelligence with links to Putin wanted to expose Trump’s links to the Kremlin so Hillary would win.

Doesn’t make much sense, does it?

While I would like to believe that McCain has an ankle monitor on, it is too easy to reverse a photograph.

Has anyone tried to verify whether that was done or not ?


Unless either his shirt or jacket maker decided to sew the buttons on the wrong side of the garment, the photos have not been reversed.

McCain is a scum bag. He is up to his butt in this slander. He physically carried this JOKE to Comey!! PERSONALLY. He is a disgrace.

I would love to think McCain was like this because of his brain tumor but I doubt it.

That would mean he's had the brain tumor for decades and medically that is nearly impossible.

McCain...has long refused to detail his actions regarding the dossier.

Pleading the 5th?

The buttons on the jacket... that is the clue whether the photo is reversed. Both photos have the buttons on the same side.

So, do you believe McCain is real war hero? Or has merely been playing one like Kerry since the late 60’s?

McCain never intended to win.
He was a Designated Loser and he knew what his role was.

The reason he hates Trump is that Trump is messing up the GHW Bush Plan for North Mexico (aka USA).
Both parties agreed through non-enforcement of laws and borders to change this country against the will of the citizens.

I just did. The buttons on his shirt on the left is on the right side, the buttons on his jacket on the right is also on the right side. Now, look at the brace, it is made for the particular foot. Brace crosses right to left on right foot and left to right on right foot.

Im guessing the next time we see McCain in Washington it will be in a box for his funeral.

That will make me feel better all over than anyplace else.

Trump insulted his war record? How many airplanes did McCain destroy through lousy piloting; 4? plus the one he was shot down in? Trump went EASY on him, IMHO.
