Former Trump campaign aide meets with Senate panel in Russia probe
ABC "News" ^ | May 1, 2018 | By ALI DUKAKIS

Former Trump campaign aide Michael Caputo was on Capitol Hill Tuesday for a closed-door meeting with Senate Intelligence Committee investigators as part of the panel's probe into alleged Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential election.

Caputo worked for the Trump campaign from November 2015 to June 2016 as a political adviser.

Speaking exclusively with ABC News upon his arrival Tuesday, Caputo once again disputed the notion the Trump campaign colluded with the Russians during the 2016 campaign.

“I’m looking forward to talking to the Senate committee," Caputo told ABC News. "I hope it’s the last time I’m asked to talk to anyone in Congress."

“There was no Russian collusion. We didn’t speak to Russians. We didn’t use Russian dressing. This is a witch hunt, a fishing expedition, and I can’t wait until it’s over,” Caputo added.

An easy way to end this is for him to ask Linda about his involvement with McCain in getting the fake dossier to the FBI.
“Senator Graham, when did Senator McCain ask you to begin slow walking this investigation into the fake dossier?”

When it comes to Washington politics, Ali Dukakis admits she’s just a little obsessed.

The ABC News digital journalist says she’s fascinated with the Watergate scandal, noting that she recently re-read Carl Bernstein and Bob Woodward’s “All The President’s Men.”

Took some searching, but her Grandfather is Michael Dukakis, the tank driver!

“But when the grandfather is former Massachusetts governor Mike Dukakis, famous for his waste-not, want-not mentality, it’s perfectly understandable — and utterly adorable — that a stranger would leave a bird carcass on his porch.”

“Indeed, since a 2015 Globe story detailing Dukakis’s post-Thanksgiving tradition of making soup with the leftover turkey, carcasses occasionally show up on his porch. It happened again Tuesday — the day after Christmas — according to Duke’s granddaughter, ABC News digital journalist Ali Dukakis, who tweeted an image of the bird skeleton in an Old Navy bag.”

Her Grandfather

John Dukakis was born John A. Chaffetz in San Jose, California, but reared in the Boston area. He is the son of Kitty Dukakis and John Chaffetz, a businessman, and the adopted son of former Massachusetts Governor and 1988 Democratic presidential nominee Michael Dukakis, whom his mother married when he was five. His half-brother, through his biological father, is Jason Chaffetz, who was the U.S. Representative (R) for Utah's 3rd district from 2009 to 2017. He has been married his wife, Lisa, since 1988. He has one daughter, Alexandra Jane Dukakis

The inbreeding is unbelievable.

Chaffetz related to Dukakis?

Gads.

Some of these if not all are likely the financiers of the Russia smear scheme:
