Writing about McCain is like writing about Maxine Waters. Both are disconnected from reality, crooked as the day is long. Both have an agenda that runs counter to the goals of ordinary American plebs. In this case, McCain clearly has an agenda in the Ukraine. He panders to them and uses their internal struggles vs Moscow to foment anti-Russian rhetoric in the United States.
How many US marines have the Russians killed over the past 10 years?
How many public beheadings have the Russians undertaken and how much clay have they taken from Iraq and Syria?
Even suggesting that Russia is a greater threat than ISIS is absurd. But, this is John 'Fucking' McCain, so don't expect normal to come out of his mouth.
Towards the end of this clip, McCain, incredulously, stated that Comey investigated Hillary based upon 'fake news' disseminated by the Russians. What part of Hillary's unprotected email server and destruction of evidence fake news? Moreover, how was the then acting AG Lynch meeting with Bill Clinton on the tarmac for a secret 30 minute meeting fake news?
According to the Washington Post, the prime driver behind Comey closing the Hillary investigation was because he had received a fake document stating that AG Lynch told a Clinton staffer that the investigation wouldn't go too far, not to worry.
Former FBI Director James Comey's investigation into Hillary Clinton was shaped by a bogus Russian document, according to a new Washington Post report.
A phony Russian document influenced the way the FBI handled the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s server, according to The Washington Post.
During the middle of the 2016 presidential primary season, the bureau received a purported Russian intelligence document detailing an implicit deal between Clinton’s campaign and the Justice Department regarding the inquiry into her private email server, the paper said.
The document, obtained by the FBI, described how the Attorney General at the time, Loretta Lynch, had privately assured a Clinton campaign member that the email investigation would not go too far, the Post reported.
Receipt of the document then allegedly helped influence the July decision by then-FBI Director James Comey to announce on his own, without the Justice Department’s involvement, that the investigation into Clinton was finished and that no charges against Clinton would be forthcoming.
The public announcement set off an uproar on both sides of the political spectrum.
According to The Post, the FBI later determined that the document was illegitimate. It may have been a fake sent to confuse the bureau, people familiar with its contents told the paper.
The Americans mentioned in a purported email exchange in the document have since insisted that they don’t know each other, don’t speak to one another and never had conversations like those detailed in the document.
By August, the month after Comey’s public announcement, the FBI had concluded that the document was bogus, the Post said.
