President Donald Trump has been under the scanner over his alleged links with Russia, which further escalated after a 35-page document released by CNN in January claimed the 70-year-old was involved in obscene sexual acts. Britain's former MI6 officer Christopher Steele, who is believed to have authored the dossier, has now been called in by the Senate to testify over the scandal, the Independent reported Thursday.
After CNNs report, other news publications followed suit. The dossier contained reports of material that Russian operatives had allegedly collected on Trump. It also included the infamous Golden Shower Gate episode, where Trump allegedly paid prostitutes to urinate on a bed that had been used by former President Barack Obama and his wife Michelle Obama. The document was reportedly presented to both Trump and Obama.
Trump had attacked Steele declaring the report on the Kremlin connection as a fabricated work put together by a failed spy. He got into a fight with several media publications such as BuzzFeed News that dumped the entire dossier after admitting its findings had not been verified, and also busted CNN accusing the cable network of being "fake news."
The allegations have been dismissed by both Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin, according to Sputnik International.

That will be one way to keep him alive. That and MI6.

(67 posts)When asked about the incident, Trump said that he wasn't even in the room long enough for it to happen. I know twelve year olds that an lie better than that. He didn't say he wasn't in the room. Or he didn't rent it. Or he didn't sleep in the room. Just that he wasn't in the room long enough for it to have happened. What an UNBELIEVABLE liar.

Same for his team, esp. Conway and Spicer, who have been caught lying more than once.

(790 posts)one less thing to hold over the head of his puppet to keep leverage on him. Plus he would lose his asset in the White house if exposed.
