Yes, he handed over a document created by a British Intelligence officer of rumors that he had gathered from Russian officials.
I think McCain's irony meter was just broken. When the Russians divulge rumors that are damning to an American politician it isn't for the good of the American people...
Also, that "trusted intelligence source" was eventually fired by the FBI for lying to them.
Doesn't matter what "eventually" happened. At the time the guy was a trusted source who had helped numerous times. As well as the fact that we are sitting here now knowing that some of the dossier has been verified. The argument that it should have just been entirely ignored by our intelligence agencies is down right stupid. Like, astoundingly stupid.
