News Out of the White House…. This Proves It

It seems like whenever you talk about Washington, D.C., one thing that constantly comes up is the idea of “shortage.” There’s always a shortage of cash, shortage of personnel, and on it goes. Want to know the one thing there is no shortage of in Washington? Corruption. That flows down the halls of Congress in a never ending supply.

A great example of the kind of indecency that runs rampant on both sides of the political spectrum is how Democrats and even a Republican or two used a dossier put together on then presidential candidate Donald Trump back in 2016 to try ending his campaign for the White House.

A man is coming out of the shadows now, saying he acted as a “go-between” to keep Sen. John McCain informed about the dossier, discussing how the ex-British spy who helped put the dossier together worked with others to coordinate the document’s release to the FBI, Capitol Hill, and the media.

From a January 2017 report…

A former British ambassador to Moscow has revealed the role he played in bringing the explosive dossier about Donald Trump’s alleged links to Russia to the attention of the US intelligence agencies.

Sir Andrew Wood was consulted about the claims by Senator John McCain at a security conference in Canada shortly after the US election.

Wood said he did not have the dossier but that McCain obtained it from his own sources. It was written by former British MI6 agent Christopher Steele and handed to the director of the FBI, James Comey.

“I told him I was aware of what was in the report but I had not read it myself, that it might be true, it might be untrue. I had no means of judging really,” he told BBC Radio 4’s Today programme.
