In 2017, Senator John McCain (R-AZ) admitted that he delivered the Steele dossier to former FBI Director James Comey. The now-deceased Senator John McCain wrote in his memoir, “The Restless Wave: Good Times, Just Causes, Great Fights, and Other Appreciations, that he had “no regrets” about alerting the FBI about the disproven Steele dossier.
The Hill reported about McCain’s arrogance in his memoir, and how he wrote that he “did what duty demanded I do” in passing on the documents.
“I discharged that obligation, and I would do it again. Anyone who doesn’t like it can go to hell,” McCain said, according to excerpts of the book published by The Guardian.
Breitbart News is now reporting that the late Senator John McCain provided disgraced former FBI chief James Comey with not one, but five separate reports from Christopher Steele that the FBI didn’t previously possess related to unsubstantiated allegations of collusion between Russia and President Trump’s 2016 campaign, the Justice Department’s recent Inspector General report revealed.
The IG report discloses that McCain gave five new Steele reports to Comey that the FBI did not previously possess, showing that McCain served as a conduit for Steele’s information to reach the FBI even after the British ex-spy was formally cut off as an FBI source.
It is not clear whether McCain knew at the time that Steele had previously been terminated as an FBI source for speaking to the media.
The IG report also verifies that a McCain aid obtained the Steele reports directly from Fusion GPS co-founder Glenn Simpson, meaning that when McCain transferred the anti-Trump charges to Comey he had to have known that the material originated with a firm that specializes in controversial opposition tactics.

McCain must have suspected that the source of the dossier was using McCain to create the appearance of credibility that Steele could no longer achieve. What a scum he was.

And he's not the man his daughter believes he is.
Is that supposed to be Hillary? The likeness is uncanny.
