Court files reveal role of McCain and an associate in spreading anti-Trump dossier

McCain tried to flame a strong presidential candidate from his own party for personal reasons. Not policy. Not convictions. Not cool.

Just how did he do that?

The chain of events that led up to the FISA warrant are pretty well known. There is also the fact that he, voted as the lone "conservative" against Obamacare repeal.

Or was that a rhetorical question?

Steele himself said that the information in the report was not verified:

Further, the words complained of were published by BuzzFeed as part of an article which stressed that the contents of the dossier (which included the December memorandum) were "unverified", "unconfirmed' and contained "unverified, and potentially unverifiable allegations".

...

“The contents of the report did not represent (and did not purport to represent) verified facts, but were raw intelligence which had identified a range of allegations that warranted investigation given their potential national security implications”.

The now debunked dossier?
Who do you think you're kidding?

You....and it’s pretty easy.
Because anyone that still believes the “Dossier” is living in an alternate reality where it’s easy to be fooled.
It’s sad really.

Even the nuttiest of the left wingnuts, and collusion conspirists have let it go. Not Silly though. Truly a diehard.

To reiterate.. the Steele-Trump-Russia DOSSIER was composed of Rumors and Fake News.

Former British spy Christopher Steele admitted that he relied on an unverified report on a CNN website for part of the "Trump dossier," which was used as a basis for the FBI's investigation into Trump.

According to deposition transcripts released this week, Steele said last year he used a 2009 report he found on CNN's iReport website and said he wasn't aware that submissions to that site are posted by members of the public and are not checked for accuracy.

CNN keeps popping up in various depositions. No wonder they are always in full 24/7 "Get Trump!" mode. That will not help them going forward. CNN's traitorous activities are being exposed a little more every week.

...and now we know his 'raw intelligence' included a trawl of a CNN website of public comments. Literally some leftist anon posting conspiracy theories.

We really really need an eye rolling emoji.

This wouldn't a surprise to anyone who followed certain threads on this site. McCain had ties to principle players in those thread and this dossier mess that were dug up long, long ago.

Interestingly, John McCain tried to cover his tracks, before dying...

In his 2018 book, The Restless Wave, the late Senator John McCain (R-Ariz.) wondered aloud why he was sought out and given the infamous Steele dossier shortly after the 2016 presidential election.

After suggesting that anyone who questioned his role in handling the political document was indulging in “conspiracy theories,” McCain offered his explanation: “The answer is too obvious for the paranoid to credit. I am known internationally to be a persistent critic of Vladimir Putin’s regime and I have been a long while.”

It is true that McCain was an outspoken critic of Putin. But the big problem with McCain’s defense is that by the time he wrote those words—presumably the end of 2017, since the book was published in late May 2018—it already was public knowledge that the dossier had been authored and distributed by political pimps funded by the Hillary Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee.

When McCain was writing his book, many of the culprits were in serious legal jeopardy.
