BOMBSHELL: McCain Handed Trump Dossier to FBI, Now His Team Is In BIG Trouble

John McCain, the RINO Senator from Arizona, handed the ridiculous and faulty "Trump

dossier" over to the FBI a little while ago.

McCain played dumb, not willing to admit whether or not he knew the dossier was funded by the

DNC and Hillary Clinton campaign.

Now, big things are going down…

From Breitbart:PHILADELPHIA — Sen. John McCain may find himself facing serious questions

following the disclosure that the Hillary Clinton campaign and the Democratic National

Committee helped fund research utilized in the infamous, largely discredited 35-page

dossier on President Donald Trump.

In December, it was McCain who notoriously passed the controversial dossier documents

produced by the Washington opposition research firm Fusion GPS to then FBI Director James

Comey, whose agency reportedly utilized the dossier as some of the basis for its probe

into alleged Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election.

A McCain associate, David Kramer, was subpoenaed in late 2017.

From Washington Examiner:

House Intelligence Committee chairman Devin Nunes has issued a subpoena to David Kramer,

a former State Department official who, in late November 2016, traveled to London to

receive a briefing and a copy of the Trump dossier from its author, former British spy

Christopher Steele.

Kramer then returned to the U.S. to give the document to Sen. John McCain.

Kramer is a senior fellow at the McCain Institute for International Leadership at Arizona State

University.

McCain later took a copy of the dossier to the FBI's then-director, James Comey.

But the FBI already had the document; Steele himself gave the dossier to the bureau in

installments, reportedly beginning in early July 2016.

Continued:

McCain, recovering in Arizona from treatments for cancer, has long refused to detail his

actions regarding the dossier.

For his part, Kramer was interviewed by the House Intelligence Committee on Dec. 19.

The new subpoena stems from statements Kramer made in that interview.

In the session, Kramer told House investigators that he knew the identities of the Russian

sources for the allegations in Steele's dossier.

But when investigators pressed Kramer to reveal those names, he declined to do so.

Now, Kramer has pleaded the fifth.

From Fox News:

A former State Department official and associate of Sen. John McCain has invoked his Fifth

Amendment right not to testify in connection with questions from the House Intelligence

Committee about the anti-Trump dossier's Russian sources, according to a law enforcement

source.

David J. Kramer, who is a central player in how the unverified Trump dossier made its

way to the FBI in late 2016, testified before the committee in December in a closed-door

session, indicating he had information about the dossier's sources.

A subpoena was issued for mid-January, as first reported by The Washington Examiner.

The law enforcement source confirmed, however, that Kramer did not appear and has exercised

his Fifth Amendment rights.

Continued:

Yet Kramer gave a videotaped deposition last December in separate civil litigation against

BuzzFeed about the dossier and his contact with the former British spy who compiled it,

Christopher Steele.

Steele was hired by opposition research firm Fusion GPS to write and research the dossier,

with funding from the Democratic National Committee and Clinton campaign.

According to British court records obtained by Fox News as part of its ongoing investigation

of the Trump dossier, Kramer was personally briefed in late November 2016 by Steele in

Surrey, England.

After that briefing, Steele told the British court that an arrangement was made so that

Fusion GPS — co-founded by Glenn Simpson – would provide hard copies of the dossier

to McCain via Kramer.

Shortly afterward, the dossier was given to the FBI, which already had its own copy from

Steele.

Breath Mints, Groundhog Day and Trump Pointing, Pointing, Pointing: Congressional Hits and Misses - Duration: 3:18.

... when it comes to family based immigration, and if so do you have —

Well the, in terms of that ...

It makes me think of Groundhog Day.

I don't know if you read this in

high school or not but my generation did.

Let me just say let me just say a few things —

Yeah, as Kevin was mentioning, um

And coming up on Groundhog Day. Well it's Groundhog Day. Plus a sequel ...

What's that about?

What is that about?

Overwhelmingly, was it Steny —

Plus another sequel, plus another sequel, and yet another sequel.

You've had —

You've asked enough.

Instead of a hand of friendship as some had said he presented a clenched fish...

Fi—

Clenched fist.

I don't fish at that.

Without them I could have never won the

presidency I guess. I don't know could I have won the presidency without them?

Huh?

Steve, yes! Right?

I want to thank Senator Finance Chairman

and a very spectacular man, Orrin Hatch.

Where's Orrin?

Orrin?

Orrin is, I love listening to him speak,

he said once I am the single greatest president in his lifetime.

Now he's a young man so it's not that much but ...

And time and he actually once said I'm the

greatest president in the history of our country and I said does that include

Lincoln and Washington? He said yes. I said I love this guy.

I love him.

But he is, he's a special guy.

I'd call Kevin, night after night.

'Kevin what about this?'

"What about that?'

You were always there, he was working, what do you average sleep

for about four weeks?

About, maybe nothing? I think he had no average.

Where is Tim?

What a good guy Tim is.

Tim?

See him over there somewhere?

Thank you, Tim.

And I really believe that that problem is big problem

is going to solve itself, so we're working on it.

Ronald Reagan and every president has

wanted to get ANWR approved and after that I said oh make sure that's in

the bill. It was amazing how that had an impact that had a very big impact on me Paul.

I really didn't care about it and then when I heard that everybody wanted

it for 40 years they've been trying to get it approved I said

make sure you don't lose ANWR.

And Senator Sullivan, Senator Murkowski are here someplace.

Where are they? But they are very happy campers.

Where are, senator? Good, senator.

Thank you.

They worked very, where's Don Young? He's such a quiet guy. Where's Don?

'He didn't fulfill a promise' but now we fulfilled far more promises than we promised.

We have seriously fulfilled promise, I call it promises plus!

WATCH Shooting Survivors Thank Trump For 'Leadership' - Duration: 2:09.

WATCH Shooting Survivors Thank Trump For �Leadership�

Survivors and families affected by school shootings gathered at the White House Wednesday

to speak with President Trump.

Trump gathered the families and students in the State Dining Room at the White House and

listened as participants took turns on the microphone.

Students at Stoneman Douglas High School have been at the forefront of the gun debate, with

some criticizing Trump and Republicans for not doing enough to stop school shootings.

However, at the White House Wednesday, criticism was non-existent for the president.

One student, Jonathan, told Trump, �Thank you for everything.

You�ve done a great job.

I like the direction you�re going in.�

Hello.

I�m Jonathan.

I go to Stoneman Douglas.

I was actually in the second classroom that was shot at.

In my mind, as a kid nothing that horrible should ever have to happen to you.

You can�t even think about it.

It doesn�t even seem real still.

Everything seems fake.

I can�t even � I don�t know what is going on.

It�s just crazy.

Everything happening.

It�s just so tragic.

Thank you for everything.

You�ve done a great job.

I like the direction you�re going in.

Thank you

As Nancy 'Crumbs' Pelosi Continues To Bash Tax Cuts, Trump Delivers Brutal Surprise - Duration: 4:33.

As Nancy 'Crumbs' Pelosi Continues To Bash Tax Cuts, Trump Delivers Brutal Surprise

California Democrat Nancy "Crumbs" Pelosi has been attacking President Donald Trump

relentlessly over the substantial tax cuts he gave Americans, and she just won't stop.

Now, Trump has a brutal surprise for her that you won't want to miss.

Liberals seldom know when to shut up and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) is no

exception.

While Trump spoke at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) on Friday, February

23, 2018, he lambasted Pelosi during his speech for complaining about the recent tax cuts

and numerous bonuses and pay raises announced by multiple corporations around the country.

The President went after Pelosi and the Democrats for wanting to take away his tax cuts and

our 2nd Amendment rights.

"I'll just leave you with this.

We have to fight Nancy Pelosi.

They want to give your money away.

They want to give your money away.

They want to end your tax cuts.

They want to do things that you wouldn't even believe, including taking your Second

Amendment rights away," Trump said.

In the closing minutes of his speech, Trump also blasted NAFTA and talked about how America

has been taken advantage of by other countries.

"Last year, we had almost a five-hundred billion dollar trade deficit with China.

We can't have that, we can't have that.

I have great respect for President Xi, but we can't have that," President Trump said.

"We have to go and we have to do what we have to do.

We just can't let countries — as an example, Mexico — we have a hundred billion dollar

trade deficit with Mexico.

What does that tell you?

You know what it tells you?

NAFTA is no good.

It never was any good, but for some reason, nobody ever changed it.

They emptied our factories.

You gotta see the car plants and the auto plants in Mexico.

Like, you've never seen anything like it before," Trump continued.

"I want those companies — and they're starting — I want them back here.

I want them back here.

They're going to come back here too.

And, we want to make our neighbors happy, but we can't continuously have other nations

taking advantage of the United States, like never before.

And, this has gone on for a long time," Trump said.

"This has gone on for longer — the last administration was a disaster — but this

has gone on for much longer than the last administration.

And, we've got to change it.

We're going to change it.

So, we're renegotiating deals, and you know what?

Hate to say it, but if we can't make a fair for the United States, we will terminate the

deal, and we'll start all over again," he added to thunderous applause.

"So, under my administration — and with your help — don't forget, you, many of

you were the forgotten people.

You were the people that when the polls came out they didn't know that you existed.

The Democrats are trying to figure out who you are because they want to get you back!"

Trump pointed out.

"We've had people that never voted, but they're patriots, but they never saw anybody

they wanted to vote for.

Then, they go to the election, they've got Trump, Pence, Trump, Pence.

They've got hats, they've got all sorts of things Trump over here, make America great

again hats, right!?" Trump added, reminding his supporters that we must all once again

show up at that polls this year as the crowd continued to cheer before he made his final

comments.I could not agree more with our President.

Democrats are sick to their stomachs that Trump's plan to make our country great again

is working.

They never thought that he would even become POTUS let alone successfully rid our government

of so many of the damaging policies put into place by former President Barack Obama and

his disastrous administration.

The bottom line is that liberal hacks like Pelosi want to see people in poverty and want

to see Americans doing poorly because that's the only way Democrats can gain control or

power.

Thank God, their gig is up, and President Donald Trump is keeping his word to put America

first.

POTUS Trump Lashes Out at Fake News CNN For Scripted Anti Gun To - Duration: 3:28.

POTUS Trump Lashes Out at Fake News CNN For Scripted Anti-Gun Town Hall

As TGP�s Cassandra Fairbanks previously reported, Colton Haab opted out of participating

in CNN�s anti-gun town-hall event on Wednesday evening � seemingly because his perspective

does not fit the narrative they have been peddling.

CNN scripted their entire anti-gun town hall which was hosted by anti-gun Jake Tapper.

Shocker.

Haab is the brave 17-year-old member of the Junior Reserve Officers� Training Corps

who ushered 60 to 70 people to safety in an open JROTC room during the Parkland school

shooting.

The high school junior may have saved many lives by using the Kevlar sheets from the

marksmanship program to try and protect his peers.

His actions were so important that the US Military is currently considering awarding

him with a JROTC Medal of Heroism.

Despite this 17-year-old�s heroism, CNN would not allow him to ask his prepared questions.�CNN

had originally asked me to write a speech and questions and it ended up being all scripted,�

Haab said.

Fake News CNN didn�t want any students to go off of their anti-gun script.

On Thursday, CNN responded to hero Colton Haab�s claim the anti-gun town hall was

scripted in a statement via CNN public relations� Twitter account.

CNN said, �There is absolutely no truth to this.

CNN did not provide or script questions for anyone in last night�s town hall, nor have

we ever.�

Very fake news CNN never scripts their town halls, just ask Donna Brazile.

On Thursday, Trump unleashed on fake news CNN for refusing hero Colton Haab a platform

because he wouldn�t parrot their script.

Trump then took a swipe at MSNBC.

Trump tweeted: �School shooting survivor says he quit @CNN Town Hall after refusing

scripted question.� @TuckerCarlson.

Just like so much of CNN, Fake News.

That�s why their ratings are so bad!

MSNBC may be worse.

Please, Mr. President don�t ever stop tweeting!

The Gateway Pundit was the first publication to point out that the students appeared to

be regurgitating scripted lines as the liberal media interviewed them.

The students looked like they were being coached to push the anti-gun narrative.

The Gateway Pundit was on the receiving end of an all out onslaught from all sides for

pointing this out; we stand by our reporting.

If CNN�s town hall was scripted, certainly their interviews with the students were as

well.

Case closed.

Trump Just Made Historical Announcement That Has Muslims Everywhere Outraged - Duration: 5:15.

Trump Just Made Historical Announcement That Has Muslims Everywhere Outraged

Despite countless threats from around the world, President Donald Trump just confirmed

one of his most significant historical announcements since he took office.

Not everyone is going to happy about this.After 8 years of Barack Obama's treasonous secret

dealings with our terror-funding enemies, President Donald Trump has re-established

a camaraderie with Israel, our sole ally and the only democracy in the Middle East.

Expectedly, this has enraged the Muslim world, which has ceaselessly tried to annihilate

the Jewish population for over a millennium, nearly accomplishing their goal during their

alliance with Nazi-Germany.

Unfortunately for them, their goal just moved even further out of reach with Trump's latest

announcement.

Putting to rest what many critics doubted would actually occur, President Donald Trump's

administration has finally confirmed that the U.S. Embassy will officially open in Jerusalem

in May, sealing his declaration that the city is indeed Israel's capital, according to

The Jerusalem Post.

"We're planning to open the new US Embassy to Israel in Jerusalem in May," the US official

told the Post.

"The Embassy opening will coincide with Israel's 70th anniversary."

"The Embassy will initially be located in Arnona, on a compound that currently houses

the consular operations of Consulate General Jerusalem," he continued.

"At least initially, it will consist of the Ambassador and a small team."

The announcement was confirmed by Transport Minister Israel Katz, who thanked the president

for his monumental "gift" to the Jewish nation, which undeniably strengthens Israel's

bond with the U.S.

I would like to congratulate Donald Trump, the President of the US @POTUS on his decision

to transfer the US Embassy to our capital on Israel's 70th Independence Day.

There is no greater gift than that!

The most just and correct move.

Thanks friend!

"I would like to congratulate Donald Trump, the President of the US @POTUS on his decision

to transfer the US Embassy to our capital on Israel's 70th Independence Day.

There is no greater gift than that!

The most just and correct move.

Thanks friend!" Katz tweeted on February 23.

The move was planned for May 2018 in correlation with Israel's 70th Independence Day, marking

a double historical event in the tiny Jewish state's extensive and rich heritage.

The announcement to relocate the U.S. Embassy and declaration that Jerusalem is Israel's

capital establishes President Trump as perhaps the most pro-Israel president America has

ever had.

Trump lauded the decision to move the embassy from Tel Aviv during an address in Washington

on February 23.

"I said, 'I have to do it, because its the right thing to do,'" Trump said, of

his conversations with world leaders leading up to the decision.

"The campaign against it was so incredible.

But you know what, the campaign for it was also incredible."

The decision to move the embassy as well as declare Jerusalem the capital of Israel has

been met with global scrutiny, including the UN voting 128-9 to denounce Trump's decision.

The virulent opposition was based on the UN's repeated condemnation of Israel, the only

free country in the Middle East, as well as their incessant praise of oppressive and terror-tied

Islamic regimes.

Of course, the Trump administration refused to showcase the typical submission to which

the UN grew accustomed under the Obama administration, instead vowing to retaliate against nations

denying Israel her rightful capital.

On Tuesday, Haley had tweeted that "the U.S. will be taking names" of the countries

that vote to support the resolution and that Trump had asked her to report back on the

nations "who voted against us."

She also penned a letter to most of the 193 U.N. member states, in which she warned the

U.S. would retaliate against countries that vote in favor of the resolutions.

Trump, during a Cabinet meeting in Washington on Wednesday, said: "We're watching those

votes.

Let them vote against us."

"We'll save a lot," he said.

"We don't care."

President Trump has since delivered on those promises, cutting financial aid to terror-tied

Pakistan and Palestine, which is ruled by designated terrorist group Hamas.

President Donald Trump has officially severed the ties that Barack Obama established with

America's worst enemies, once again securing our bond with Israel, our only real ally in

the Middle East.

Finally, we have a president who not only refuses to bow to oppressive dictators but

makes them pay for their relentless hatred of both the U.S. and Israel.

Ivanka Trump Wears All-Black for Dinner with South Korean President Moon Jae in - Duration: 2:29.

Ivanka Trump received a red carpet welcome when she arrived in South Korea on Friday

for a charm offensive as head of the US delegation to the Closing Ceremony of the Winter Olympics.

Ivanka arrived in the city earlier in the day, wearing a cream turtleneck and houndstooth

coat, accompanied by Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders.

Later that evening she attended a dinner with South Korean President Moon Jae-in and his

wife, Kim Jung-sook, at the presidential Blue House, wearing a black dress and heels.

Trump posted a photo of her and Moon shaking hands to her Instagram account writing, "Thank

you President Moon and First Lady Kim for your warm hospitality and the very special

dinner at the historic Blue House, marking the start of our visit to South Korea."

Her father seems excited by her presence in the country.

He tweeted: "My daughter, Ivanka, just arrived in South Korea.

We cannot have a better, or smarter, person representing our country."

On Sunday, she will attend the Closing Ceremony of the PyeongChang Games, where her appearance

is drawing attention-grabbing comparisons to that of the younger sister of North Korean

leader Kim Jong Un.

Kim Yo Jong stole the limelight from Vice President Mike Pence, who ignored her at the

Opening Ceremony and remained seated as the unified Korean team marched in the stadium.

The North also plans to send a high-level delegation that is expected to be led by former

spymaster Kim Yong Chol,

For now, there are no signs that Ivanka will meet him at the ceremony.

The White House has stressed that the purpose of her visit is to celebrate the achievements

of the athletes, noting that she is a winter sports enthusiast — skiing in particular

— herself.

Speculation is high in South Korea that she might deliver a message from her father on

North Korea.

While the games appear to have ushered in a possible thawing of relations between the

two Koreas, US and North Korean officials have yet to make direct contact.

Earlier this week, the White House said Pence had been set to meet officials from the rogue

regime during his visit to the games, but that the North canceled at the last minute.
