McCain Associate Who Handled Dossier Asks Judge To Seal Deposition
2018-01-19
[Daily Caller] An associate of Arizona Sen. John McCain’s who handled the dossier is asking a federal judge to block the release of a videotape and transcript of a deposition he recently gave in a lawsuit related to the salacious document.

David Kramer, a former State Department official and former director at the McCain Institute for International Leadership, filed a motion in federal court in Florida asking a judge for a protective order to block the public release of his deposition.

Kramer was deposed last month by lawyers for a Russian businessman suing BuzzFeed News for publishing the dossier. The lawyers for the businessman, Aleksej Gubarev, are interested in Kramer because he is one of just a few people known to have handled the dossier after it was completed by former British spy Christopher Steele and before its Jan. 10, 2017 publication.

#6  Soros money involved, you can bet on that. McCain already has his foundation taking massive amounts of money from Soros organizations. John McCain, traitor. Sad that it ended up that way. Hurry up and die John before you tarnish your rep any more.

#4  Steele, McCain and Fusion GPS, the opposition research firm that commissioned the dossier on behalf of Democrats

No surprise McCain and associates want this deep-sixed in the legal swamp of D.C.
