James Comey‘s testimony on Capitol Hill is underway, and point blank, Sen. Richard Burr (R-N.C.) kicked it off with a series of very pointed questions at the former FBI Director.
Included in that line of questioning, Burr directly asked Comey if he could discredit the infamous dossier complied by former British intelligence office Christopher Steele, which included a salacious allegation that, when in Russia, President Trump watched prostitutes pee all over a bed former president Obama once slept in.
Instead of denying the veracity of the dossier, Comey said he couldn’t comment on it.

Comey just strooooooongly implied the Steele Dossier contained “credible allegations.”

The document included many other allegations, which could be what Comey was referring to, but Twitter, of course, latched onto the pee tape.

It’s probably not real, but Twitter will never, never give up hope.
