IG Report Reveals Steele Funneled Claims Through John McCain After FBI Dropped Him

Late Senator John McCain provided disgraced former FBI chief James Comey with five separate reports from Christopher Steele that the FBI didn’t previously possess related to unsubstantiated allegations of collusion between Russia and President Trump’s 2016 campaign, the Justice Department’s recent Inspector General report revealed.

There have long been questions about why it was necessary for McCain to pass Steele’s anti-Trump dossier to Comey on December 9, 2016, several weeks after the November 2016 presidential election. By then, Steele had already met numerous times with FBI agents to provide them with his controversial reports. Steele, however, was terminated as an FBI source in the fall of 2016 because he spoke to the news media.

The IG report discloses that McCain gave five new Steele reports to Comey that the FBI did not previously possess, showing that McCain served as a conduit for Steele’s information to reach the FBI even after the British ex-spy was formally cut off as an FBI source.

It is not clear whether McCain knew at the time that Steele had previously been terminated as an FBI source.

Lindsey Graham read the report and said he was scared so he said give to fbi. Now we no it was made up fiction and Graham has yet to subpoena a single person. He created all of this to take down trump and it back fired. Now he is trying to hold on is 175 a year plus benefits. Zero subpoenas and one hearing

Mccain was one of this countries biggest Traitors! He deliberately stabbed the president in the back, lied about his relationship with Democrats, and killed more US Navy Men than the whole country of Vietnam did.
He was also a piece of shit husband that divorced his faithful wife and dumped his own kids!
Allowing him to be in the capital Rotunda was a big slap in the face to faithful husbands and wives all across this country. I let my dog crap on his grave at the naval Academy grave yard. He deserves all of America's Hate directed at him. He lay dying, thank God in intense pain, and still he had to do one last rotten thing by stabbing our president in the back!
