McCain doesn’t regret giving the false Steele Dossier to Comey!

Same thing Nixon expressed. How did that work out?

None of us know what the investigation knows.

My crystal ball says, upon conclusion, there will be insufficient evidence to charge Trump with a crime. It also says that many of those he hired are the definition of swamp creatures and they will be prosecuted.

Palin responded to the news that McCain regretted selecting her by calling it a "'Perpetual' gut punch." She still delivers!

He never did anything for this country beyond his time in the service. He has been a terrible failure as a Republican and never was a Conservative. I'm glad he is finally moving on.

3. Trump can be compromised and blackmailed because of perverted sexual acts he committed in Russia arranged and monitored by Russian intelligence.

These accusations might someday be proven true. I'm waiting patiently for Mueller's report. Meanwhile, would you accept words like 'unproven,' 'unverified,' rather than 'false.'

I'm sure if Mueller doesn't find evidence to support those allegations, you and many others will argue that the absence of evidence still don't make the allegations false.

Fair points and we may never know at least for some time. Steele is a respected MI6 agent and was instrumental in the FIFA investigation. He is also an expert on Russia and Ukraine and the dossier was fairly raw form, a series of memos but according to Steele he did have contacts for his report but we won't see them.


The Dossier was only one part of the investigation, people have a mistrust of the investigation and I doubt anyone will change their minds.
