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

Newly unsealed court filings show how the late Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., and an associate shared with the FBI and a host of media outlets the unverified dossier that alleged the Russians had compromising information on now-President Trump.

McCain had denied being the source for BuzzFeed after it published the dossier, which was funded by the Democratic National Committee (DNC) and Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign, but had acknowledged giving it to the FBI.

In a newly unsealed declaration from September, former senior counterintelligence FBI agent Bill Priestap confirmed that the FBI received a copy of the first 33 pages of the dossier in December 2016 from McCain.

In another filing, David Kramer -- a former State Department official and McCain associate -- said in a Dec. 13, 2017, deposition that the dossier was given to him by author and former British spy Christopher Steele, which he then provided to multiple journalists at outlets including CNN, BuzzFeed and The Washington Post. The details were first reported by The Daily Caller.

  6. McCain let self-interest, arrogance and hate guide his life. Aside from his family, none miss him.

  7. Northwest Woodsman: McCain was a worthless slug and does not fit my definition of a war hero. How much heroism is required to get yourself shot down and spend the rest of the war in the relative safety of a prison camp. I flew the Ho Chi Minh trail almost every day for thirty months and gave up on the thought of ever making it home. DFC, Bronze Star, Purple Heart and 13 Air Medals among a bunch of others that I don’t consider worthwhile, and I don’t consider that to be any big deal. All the while McCain was sitting out the war. His passing was no loss to me.

  8. McCain was a dirty congressman. Trump called him out, and Trump was right. McCain was no hero. That "hero" crap was all manufactured by McCain's dad, to retain political control within the family. McCain was actually a traitor, and sold out our country with Anti-American statements to the enemy in return for better treatment in captivity. If McCain was to have been a real hero in Vietnam, first, he would have been a better pilot and wouldn't have been captured, and second, he wouldn't have cracked under enemy torture and would have gotten a monument back home, instead of a congressional seat for selling out his country. Ain't politics great....
