It was me: Sworn Trump enemy John McCain admits HE handed smear dossier to FBI - as details surface of document's bizarre journey from British former spy and diplomat

    Arizona Senator who disowned Trump before election admits he handed document outlining claims of Kremlin blackmail to FBI
    Brief statement claims that he received it and gave it directly to FBI Director James Comey because he was 'unable to make judgment about accuracy'
    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
    Report was apparently paid for first BY Republican enemies of Trump then by Democrats

Sworn Donald Trump enemy John McCain admitted Wednesday that he passed the dossier of claims of a Russian blackmail plot against the president-elect.

The Arizona senator issued a public statement amid mounting questions of his exact role in the affair - and how a document riddled with errors and unverifiable claims came to be published.

'Late last year, I received sensitive information that has since been made public,' he said.

'Upon examination of the contents, and unable to make a judgment about their accuracy, I delivered the information to the Director of the FBI.

'That has been the extent of my contact with the FBI or any other government agency regarding this issue.'

But the 2008 Republican loser, who disowned his party's candidate weeks before the election, may have been far more intimately involved than that.

Only someone as genuinely stupid as John McLame would read this 35 page report and think it is real.

Wasn't someone here saying this was a 4-chan hoax?

I hope in some way this puts an end to McCain and sheds some light to his dishonesty. I would love nothing more than he be asked to resign.  Dishonest John McCain needs to go!

That was the old excuse. The hive mind has moved on.

Irony:   you wouldn't recognize the irony here even after it has jumped up and bit you on the a##.

So you believe the 35 page report?

The point is McCain has bowed before the liberal kingmakers so many times, that he will use anything to try to "disown" his own party.  He wanted business as usual with his pal Hillary in charge.

WASHINGTON

A Russian venture capitalist and tech expert whose name and company are mentioned in the now-notorious document alleging connections between the Donald Trump campaign and Russian hackers says no intelligence officers have ever contacted him about the accusations, which he says are false.

There. Fixed it.

Well, do you @DCPatriot?

1)  Of course not.

2)  Last Summer you directed me to never ping you.   Show some respect and reciprocate, okay?

My apologies, @DCPatriot. I had gone into a forgive and move on stage after the elections and assumed that most of us here, particularly those who have been here a long time, would also do the same.  I won't make that mistake again.  Consider yourself de-pinged.

Not getting off that easy.

All you had to do was apologize, ..."particularly [to] those who have been here a long time", for that post last Summer.  Instead you just thought I could read your mind.

Nope, because if you expected anyone to apologize to you, that would have required a lot of apologies on your part, and I just don't think you're that kind of guy. 

Now that we have established that, let's get back on topic, shall we?

   must have been a dousy @Sanguine if his butt still hurts 6 months later.

[Cripplecreek]

As much as I dislike John McCain its still not as much as I enjoy the impotent rage of Trumpers in their inability to stop him.

Musta been.  I don't remember.
