John McCain Associate Pleads the Fifth in Russia Dossier Probe
Gateway Pundit ^ | 02/22/2018 | Jim Hoft

David Kramer, an associate of Senator John McCain, invoked his Fifth Amendment right to not testify to Congress in connection to his role in distribution of the fake Russia dossier to the FBI.

Kramer was briefed by the Russian dossier author Christopher Steele in London in 2016.

Kramer then returned back to the US and delivered the phony dossier to John McCain. McCain handed the document over to the FBI.

It’s like it’s Devin Nunes against the whole world. Alone.

Well let’s see. Nunes can’t prosecute -just the DOJ. So it’s back to Rosenstein, or Mueller. The three card monte. You don’t think we have all been played for fools? Me thinks so.

John’s running out the clock, expecting the Grim Reaper any day. His legacy will not be a positive one.

The “Fifth” should be consumed with ice.

McNut is dirty. He is not one of us, but the road block during the Obamacare vote proves he is nothing more than a communists liberal.

This is a very curious turn of events. The public story has been that Kramer did little more than act an errand boy for a sick friend who gave it to the FBI out of concern. Now Kramer is basically telling us that was all bs, that he was involved in something criminal, and has reason to fear someone who knows the details is going to spill the beans.

McCain’s probably the one who snitched on Kramer. I’m sure he snitched during the Keating 5 scandal to save his sorry ass.

One invokes the Fifth Amendment’s right against risking self-incrimination for the same reason a good rock climber uses ropes: you never know when you might slip or get hit by something unexpected. Plus, even if you’re “innocent” it’s hard even for a legally-trained witness to know how to convey that without possible mis-steps. Bottom line, over centuries, lawyers have figured out that the best practice is not to expose their clients to the high risk that something will go wrong, without any compensating upside.

IN EXCHANGE FOR ACCEPTING GOVERNMENT EMPLOYMENT, PEOPLE WHO DO MUST FORFEIT ANY RIGHT THEY HAVE REGARDING SELF INCRIMINATION ABOUT ANYTHING RELATED TO THAT EMPLOYMENT.

We all give up rights to our employers. It's time for government "workers" to be required to do the same.
