Senator John McCain passed documents to the FBI director, James Comey, last month alleging secret contacts between the Trump campaign and Moscow and that Russian intelligence had personally compromising material on the president-elect himself.

The material, which has been seen by the Guardian, is a series of reports on Trump’s relationship with Moscow. They were drawn up by a former western counter-intelligence official, now working as a private consultant.

More likely that 4chan/pol/ were the creators of that bs and used it as a troll against the never-trumpers and msm.

McCain, being an idiot, jumped and ran with it.

McCain and Graham are insane to preserve illegal immigration and political correctness. This is a massive scandal. Follow the money and dealmaking. McCain is a hater.

Having just been re-elected, McCain can only be forced out by public shaming and resignation.

There’s a not so obvious message in there too:

“But publishing this dossier reflects how we see the job of reporters in 2017.”

By reporters I assume he’s meaning MSM idiots. And yes, our weaponized autists do see MSM idiots as nothing more than playthings to bat between their paws.

Come on, all the media is saying Trump peed on a bed 0bama slept on while in Russia, with whores taking part in the showers.

What's not to believe?

Sure, sure.

Guardian given a copy by an unknown, hands it to McCain who hands it to the FBI.

Then a rumor is spread based on this nonsense.

The dems are so frickin pathetic they should be abolished and turned out based on nonsense like this. They are a waste of everyone’s time.

McCain should have gone to prison when he was one of the Keating Five, taking bribes in the S&L scandal.
