GOP senators request criminal investigation of Trump dossier author

I read the article and I didn’t see any democrats or McCain mentioned.

Yeah right. Seeing as how the FBI doesn't have to act on these recommendations at all, they can do this all they want. It appeals to the conservative base's confirmation biases and as long as they aren't involved with anything deceitful with the ongoing investigation they don't have to worry about being wrapped up in it. They can keep demanding this be looked into whether there is something there or not and since the public isn't privy to all the facts, the public gets to assume its true without fear of being shown to be wrong. It's win-win for these Congressmen. That's why it's an obvious partisan deflection.

Follow the breadcrumbs

Steele's lawyer told the court he compiled the dossier around December 13 and only shared it with his business partner Christopher Burrows, an unnamed U.K. security official, Fusion, and David Kramer, "who was acting on behalf of Senator McCain."

Haha, wait and see buddy. This will lead right back to Fusion GPS, and the Clinton Cabal.

You didn't answer my question. Why is Grassley trustful but not Feinstein? Do you have any additional info to show who is being more truthful here?

a reply to: jadedANDcynical

Are these people associated with the dossier charged with a crime? I read about a lawsuit. And both political parties had their hands in it from the beginning. I don’t care who leaked what first.

They have evidence you have not seen.

Much of it is classified...

Then you ain't seen it either!

There isn't an answer, I think this new meece had nibbled all the evidence.

a reply to: EvidenceNibbler

Republican investigations have gone swimmingly over the years. I’m sure this isn’t just a few Republican senators barking at the Moon.

Yawn... what tools

Just keep on believing that. As all of these new and renewed investigations come into full swing just keep your blinders on and scream partisan, that will help you get through the night.

The Russian/Trump investigation was started with much less evidence so don’t get too upset.

Dems going to duck for cover.

a reply to: whywhynot

Yeah yeah. I hear this all the time from conservative led investigations and they never go anywhere. I won't hold my breath on this one either.

The dossier did not exist until Hillary's campaign took over the opposition research project initially began by a right leaning media company.

The only thing the republicans are involved with was McCain's finagling on its behalf.

a reply to: EvidenceNibbler

There's no doubt that a special counsel is needed. The growing Web of Lies, deceits, crimes and even potential murders, has become too big to be ignored.

A couple names of folks behind bars disagree with you, Blagojevich & Jackson Jr

Standing by for the spin!

Not so,
The Republicans were already 'deeply' concerned and aware of Manafort and associate Frank Mermoud, both of whom had dealings with Ukraine, while Manafort also had dealings with the Kremlin and pro-Russian Ukrainians.
Frank Mermoud was the coordinator of the Washington diplomatic corps for the Republicans in Cleveland, where the Ukraine motion for armed help was flipped to more or less nappies. So yes, the GOP was...may still be concerned.
Philip Griffin, a long-time aide to Manafort in Kiev, was also seen there working with the foreign dignitaries programme.

That was also at the time Trump publicly gave the go-ahead to Russia to find 30,000 emails deleted from the private server used by Clinton, and that it would make good press for Putin...as if?

So, even if we don't know what Singer had on Trump, it surely already had the above, and as we know it also had the FBI's attention anyway.

That is so laughable on so many levels I can’t even stop laughing long enough to reply except with this.

Perhaps I can regain my composure in an hour, or three.

Lol

Special Counsel and preparation of a lot of prison cells.

a reply to: smurfy

Do you remember that is was the same Grassley that brought
a referral to the FBI on Hillary's emails?

How did that turn out?

It happens to be true, and easily verified, so when you regain your, 'composure' you can spend a few hours looking it all up, but do try to be objective, not partisan..after all, Trump is not a Republican as so many of his 'Republican' supporters tell me, and indeed even those Republicans who dwell in Capitol Hill are not Trump supporters, since most of them didn't back Trump after the 'sex tape'...well, only for a while maybe, perhaps... thinking about all those stony faces now licking ass gives me a bigger laugh than your diatribe...even Pence, who nearly choked on his hot dog, and chased reporters who were with him at the time he heard that news...is now licking ass..for the time being.

Yeah i bet the sudden increase of activity at Gitmo is just another coincidence. These people have no idea what is going on in the world but they lecture us like they do.
