How Trump's nemesis John McCain kicked off 'Kremlin memo'(trun)
Daily Mail ^ | January 11, 2017 | Darren Boyle

Leading Republican senator John McCain handed over an explosive dossier on Donald Trump's alleged links to Russia to the FBI in December. The alarming report contains a string of lurid allegations which were supposedly made by Russian agents in a bid to control Trump. Senator McCain, who was branded as 'not a war hero because he was captured' by Trump, sent an emissary to meet the former MI6 agent to collect a copy of the dossier.

Not just AZ. EVERY state that has an “open primary” needs to close it, yesterday. The very idea of such a thing is absurd.

Mitch McConnell now has a perfect excuse to remove McCain from all committees

I don't think the Post Turtle has it in him.

I bet Trump has some plans for Mr. McCain over this.


He should be censured by the Senate and lose his committee chairmanship. I doubt it will happen now but very well may in 2018. Attacking a fellow GOPer like this going beyond the pale. He’ll pay. Guaranteed.

How fitting. The DC Rump Rangers attack Trump with piss. Probably the best weapon they possess.

At this point, I honestly think the GOP ought to cut its losses and let a democrat take McCain’s seat. It couldn’t be much worse and at least we wouldn’t have him out there creating “bipartisan consensus” that does not exist.

This is why we aren’t safe with 52 Republican senators. We need more. That’s why I supported taking the Dem senator from North Dakota and making her a cabinet member so we could replace her seat with a Republican.

Any way we can impeach McCain?

But Washington reporter Carl Bernstein says former British ambassador to Moscow handed it to McCain Ambassador has not been named - and author of report also gave to FBI agent he knew at its station in Rome months ago

Do we have the name of the ambassador yet? It's also noteworthy that Rome was the epicenter of the Nigergate forgeries, which also included a handoff to British intelligence.

“The extent of his contact with the FBI or any other government agency regarding this issue” leaves the mile-wide loophole for him to have gone to the press on it.

Also, if Rome’s FBI bureau handed this to the FBI in August, why wasn’t it acted on then, and why did it suddenly get taken seriously yesterday by people who should have known better? Why didn’t Comey speak up when Trump was briefed on this Friday?

The Senate cab expel one of its own members which is effectively an impeachment. However, I think the chances of the Senate expelling McMental are effectively zero.

Allegedly a former British spy, Christopher Steele: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4109382/Russian-agents-trying-dig-dirt-Donald-Trump-not-assume-friend-says-former-Foreign-Secretary.html

McCain must be tried in a court of law and, if found guilty, executed for his crimes against theAmerican people.

Oh and to any lamestream media looking in - the man is a fraud whose own arrogance and incompetence led to his capture in Vietnam. Given Trump’s close relations with many vets I have no doubt he’s aware of what they think of him

I still don’t understand how the same state that elects Trump votes for McCain against Kelli Ward. She ran a really good campaign and was a great candidate but the majority still pulled the lever for McCain again.

Two-word explanation: George Soros.

Thank you.

Mr Steele, 52, is the director of a private security and investigations firm called Orbis Business Intelligence Ltd, run out of plush offices in Westminster, central London. . .However, a diplomatic service list shows that the ex-spy was posted to the U.K.'s Moscow embassy in 1990 with the title of 'Second Secretary', serving under ambassador Sir Rodric Braithwaite.

Surely you’re not suggesting this is all fake?
Not French ?

And, until there’s a full, complete and comprehensive investigation/inquisition into voter fraud, we really have no clue who would have won if it was limited to just legal and legit votes.

The DNC is a huge vote fraud machine. McCain is part of the DNC machine, even if he wears the R as camouflage.
