John McCain On Nunes Memo Release: 'We Are Doing Putin's Job For Him

Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) delivered a harsh rebuke against fellow Republicans who agreed to release a memo by House Intelligence Chairman Devin Nunes against the wishes of the U.S. intelligence community.

Nunes on Friday released the memo after President Donald Trump declassified it. The memo alleges that officials at the FBI and Department of Justice displayed active bias against the Trump campaign in the early stages of the Russia investigation, which was later taken over by special counsel Robert Mueller.

In a statement shortly before the memo’s release, McCain didn’t pull any punches.

“In 2016, the Russian government engaged in an elaborate plot to interfere in an American election and undermine our democracy,” McCain said. “Russia employed the same tactics it has used to influence elections around the world, from France and Germany to Ukraine, Montenegro and beyond.”

McCain said Russia’s interference has, at best, sown political discord and succeeded in “dividing us from each other.” Attacking the intelligence community is not how to fix the discord, he said.

McCain's comment makes no sense.

Surely he doesn't want a special counsel based on a fake dossier paid for by Hillary?

Surely he doesn't want the FISA court abused for political purposes, which McCabe and Strozok and perhaps Rosenstein (?) did?

McCain is in no physical condition to post anything, it appears his wife or someone else that hold's a grudge against Trump is using his account to speak for him. Putin could care less about exposing the crimes the Obama administration did against American citizens.

Perhaps his wacky daughter?

Or some staffer?

His wife, known when younger for her beauty, was also known to be very shy and unwilling to be in the public eye.

I thought his wife came from a crime family...who has funded all of McCain's campaigns .... :o
