The snakery of Paul Ryan: One of the first to have the Steele dossier in hand as he sent investigators out to probe Trump

What kind of a political leader sends members of his own party on a wild goose chase to find out whether their party leader was a Russian spy while sitting on a phony dossier full of lies and not telling them?

Well, we now know the answer: Former House Speaker Paul Ryan.

I've defended him for a long time and have never been a Ryan-hater, but this is not a pretty picture.

According to Roll Call:

GOP Rep. Adam Kinzinger and a longtime aide to Speaker Paul D. Ryan each were given an early look at the final report added to the infamous “Steele dossier,” court documents in a lawsuit against BuzzFeed News show.

Christopher Steele, the former British intelligence agent who compiled the unsubstantiated research booklet in 2016 about Donald Trump’s connections to Russia before he became president, gave the report to Kinzinger and Jonathan Burks, Ryan’s longtime chief of staff, after he completed it on Dec. 13, 2016, according to the court memo.

In addition to Kinzinger and Burks, Steele also handed off the 17th and final report of his dossier, Report 166, to a longtime associate of Sen. John McCain and the top Russia expert on President Barack Obama’s National Security Council.

That's from a court case involving a Russian who says he was smeared by the documents, which of course, were leaked to the press -- but not the investigators.

According to Kash Patel, who, along with Rep. Devin Nunes, both of whom had to get to the bottom of this without the documents Ryan had, just the haze of allegations in the press, speaking with Steve Bannon on one of his broadcasts:

sounds like participation in a conspiracy to overthrow the US government. If guilty, they must be dealt the appropriate punishment. This can not be swept under the rug.

That is worth repeating.

Paul Ryan = P.O.S.

How dare you insult all P.O.S.! Ryan is sub-human. And he could have handed President Trump the means to build a wall. He did not. Traitor!

Gave the “dossier” to Kinzinger, McCain, and Ryan. Aka “the usual suspects”. Just missing Cheney and Romney to round out the team.

Of all these people Romney is the only one still in there, and he is retiring after this election.
