McCain: I have 'concerns' about Tillerson ties to Putin
The Washington Examiner ^ | December 29, 2016 | Al Weaver

Posted on 12/29/2016 2:09:19 PM PST by kevcol

"I and several of my colleagues have concerns about Mr. Tillerson, and some of his past activities, specifically his relationship with Vladimir Putin," said McCain, who chairs the Senate Armed Services Committee.

Tillerson is facing a potentially tough confirmation process as nearly all 46 Senate Democrats, along with Sens. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., and Angus King, I-Maine, are expected to oppose him. .
.
.
McCain — along with Sen. Lindsey Graham — is in the midst of a tour of the Baltic States, where the two have been vocal proponents of the Senate holding hearings about Russian involvement in November's election.

...and what about Juan McLame’s claims to Bagdaddie in ISIS??? That’s ok??? And what about McLame not wanting the MIA’s in Viet Nam, why doesn’t he want the families to go there to try and find them, he doesn’t want us knowing what he really did while he was there...

Yeah, that McLame is a prince of a guy isn’t he??? At least Arizona thinks so or they wouldn’t be re electing him all the time now would they?

And Jeff Sessions has concerns with you hanging out all over the middle east with Al-Baghdada, McLettuce.

Treason is punishable by hanging.

Best I can tell Trump never forgets. Some underhanded doings involving lobby money or contractor payoffs that might have been overlooked in prior administrations may well be a priority with the new Sheriff.
