Lest We Forget– John McCain: 'I gave Russia blackmail dossier on Trump to FBI'

ed note–just in case there was any doubt as to just why–in addition to other services he has performed for the Jewish state–there is this outpouring of love on behalf of Israel at the news of McCain’s death.

Note, all you ‘Trump is just LOVED by Djooz’ types–

No scathing OpEds in the JMSM condemning McCain for the role he played in leaking the Steele Dossier that features so prominently in the Mueller probe and in the entire ‘IMPEACH TRUMP’ screeching hurricane to which the entire world is now subjected on a daily basis.

Nor were there any scathing OpEds in the JMSM condemning what McCain did in the immediate aftermath, and all can rest assured that Israel’s Mossad and Prime Minister knew of McCain’s plans well ahead of time and yet did nothing to stop him, knowing full well what the results of it would be for Trump.

Sen. John McCain admitted Wednesday that he gave the FBI a dossier detailing claims of a Russian blackmail plot against President-elect Donald Trump.

The Arizona lawmaker, a longtime Trump critic, made the public statement as questions piled up about his alleged role in spreading an unverified and error-riddled document that Trump has denounced as “a complete and total fabrication.”

“Late last year, I received sensitive information that has since been made public,” McCain 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.”

Trump praised reporters for not falling for the story

Watergate reporter Carl Bernstein, who contributed to a story about the dossier reported by CNN on Tuesday, said McCain was given the document by a former British ambassador to Moscow.

“It came from a former British MI6 agent who was hired from a political opposition research firm in Washington who was doing work about Donald Trump for both republican and democratic candidates opposed to Trump,” Bernstein told CNN.

“They were looking at Trump’s business ties. They saw some questionable things about Russians, about his businesses in Russia. They in turn hired this MI6 former investigator. He then came up with additional information from his Russian sources. He was very concerned by the implications of it. He then took it to an FBI colleague that he had known in his undercover work for years. He took it to this FBI man in Rome who turned it over to the bureau in Washington in August,” Bernstein said.

“And then, a former British ambassador to Russia independently was made aware of these findings and he took the information to John McCain – Senator John McCain of Arizona – in the period just after the election, and showed it to McCain – additional findings,” he added.

McCain is no fan of Trump as he disavowed the president-elect weeks before the election.

During the campaign Trump said McCain wasn’t a war hero because he was captured during the Vietnam War.
