A former State Department official and associate of Sen. John McCain has invoked his Fifth Amendment right not to testify in connection with questions from the House Intelligence Committee about the anti-Trump dossier’s Russian sources, according to a law enforcement source.

David J. Kramer, who is a central player in how the unverified Trump dossier made its way to the FBI in late 2016, testified before the committee in December in a closed-door session, indicating he had information about the dossier's sources. A subpoena was issued for mid-January, as first reported by The Washington Examiner.

The law enforcement source confirmed, however, that Kramer did not appear and has exercised his Fifth Amendment rights.

The dossier was created by foreign nationals to influence the election - and it went through the FBI all the way to the FISA court.

Meanwhile Mule-Head is wasting time on INTERNET TROLLS?

Bizarre.

McCain is the keystone to breaking this thing wide open.

****************

MCain served as a conduit to get the dossier to the FBI, and to reinforce its “credibility”. He was thirsty for anything that might do damage to Trump. McCain is a vindictive tool and I hope his secretive involvement in this disgraceful plot tarnishes his reputation beyond repair.

You have the right to remain innocent

Don't talk to the Police

Even COPS will tell you that ...

A government official taking the fifth about their work should lose their pension.

If DC really gave a $hit, they would pass legislation that no one pleading the Fifth works for the Gov. receives a Pension from the Gov. or works for a Company Involved with Gov. contracts. Wake me up when the War starts.

Flynn should have done the same thing with the FBI. There is never an advantage in speaking with cops unless you are clearly the victim.

Mueller and Hellary are hoping McRINO will kick the bucket before they are forced to call him on the stand.

Everyone in the Q threads is trying to find the keystone -— McCain is the keystone ...

Once he is dead, the trail will go cold and those responsible will go free....again.

Thanks, anonymous.

There’s going to be a lot of “the fifth” and “I don’t recall”...soon.

You mean like Hillary who couldn't recall, but then managed to write a book about it later.
