U.S. Senator John McCain says in his just-released book, that the Anti-Trump Dossier was given to him by a British diplomat, Sir Anthony Wood. He (McCain) then gave it to FBI Director James Comey.
Here is McCain's response to any of you who don't like what he did.
"I did what duty demanded I do," McCain wrote, adding that anyone who disagrees with his decision can "go to hell."

Think about it. Then consider how stupid an idea it is that a conspiracy of such VAST SCOPE was actually executed. How many people, organizations, The Washington Post, the New York Times, CNN, MSNBC, the DNC, the whole justice department from the CIA to the dept of homeland security and every department in between, the British government AND the Australian gig And even Russian citizens. And no one of the tens of thousands of people required to pull something of this scale together spoke about it. That's some very special thinking.
Guys he's pulling your legs. The whole theory that it's all about trump and that EVERYONE is in cahoots to get him is made up by him to manipulate your feelings and thinking.

Trump is a crook and a cheat. Mueller is proving it. Mueller is going to show you all.
That's why trump is so scared. That's why you all are so desperate to find these ridiculous stories to start threads on.
I keep seeing trump throw out conspiracy theories that you guys bring up. I think he has an account here lol.
DSDS ("Deep State Delusion Syndrome")
Sen. John McCain provides intimate details of how he obtained the infamous so-called Steele dossier in his new book, "The Restless Wave." The Republican senator was attending an annual security conference in Halifax, Nova Scotia shortly after the presidential election in November 2016 when retired a British diplomat approached him. According to McCain, he didn't recall ever having a previous conversation with Sir Andrew Wood, but may have met him before in passing. Chris Brose, a staff member on the Senate Armed Services Committee, and David Kramer, a former assistant secretary of state with Russian expertise, joined McCain and Wood in a room off the main conference hall. After discussing Russian election interference for a few minutes, Wood explained why he'd approached McCain in the first place.
"He told me he knew a former MI6 officer by the name of Christopher Steele, who had been commissioned to investigate connections between the Trump campaign and Russian agents as well as potentially compromising information about the President-elect that [Russian President Vladimir] Putin allegedly possessed," McCain wrote. Wood told McCain that Steele had compiled a report, while careful to note the information was unverified, which the former British spy "strongly believed merited a thorough examination by counterintelligence experts." "Our impromptu meeting felt charged with a strange intensity," McCain wrote. "No one wise-cracked to lighten the mood. We spoke in lowered voices. The room was dimly lit, and the atmosphere was eerie." It all seemed "too strange a scenario to believe" at first, he wrote, but the six-term senator felt that "even a remote risk that the President of the United States might be vulnerable to Russian extortion had to be investigated.
In court filings this year, Mr. Steele doesn’t sound as confident as his dossier. He answered questions through his attorney in a libel complaint brought by a Russian entrepreneur, Aleksej Gubarev. Mr. Steele has accused Mr. Gubarev of being pressured by Russian’s FSB intelligence service to take part in hacking against the Democratic Party. In one answer, Mr. Steele refers to the intelligence he gathered as “limited.” On the charge of collusion by Mr. Trump and his campaign advisers, he now says there was only “possible coordination.” His answer was to a question from Mr. Gubarev’s legal team on the lengths he took to brief American reporters as the fall campaign was in full swing. Mr. Steele answered, “The briefings involved the disclosure of limited intelligence regarding indications of Russian interference in the U.S. election process and the possible coordination of members of the Trump’s campaign team and Russian government officials.” At the request of Fusion GPS, the investigative firm hired by Democrats to handle and pay Mr. Steele, the former spy said he briefed The New York Times, The Washington Post, Yahoo News, The New Yorker and CNN in person. He later briefed Mother Jones magazine via Skype. In another indication that Mr. Steele was no longer wholeheartedly vouching for his own findings, he said he told journalists that they may not quote his research. He “understood that the information provided might be used for the purpose of further research, but would not be published or attributed,” he said through his attorney. Mr. Steele also acknowledged that his final December memo, the only one that dealt with Mr. Gubarev, contained information he never vetted. “The contents of the December memorandum 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,” he wrote. He added, “Such intelligence was not actively sought; it was merely received.” The unverified “raw intelligence” included Mr. Cohen reported trip to Prague.
