If you stop and think about it, you have a British spy giving the Clinton campaign a fake dossier on Trump, and a British PR agent offering Trump oppo research on Clinton.

Was it really the British who were trying to influence the American election???

You’re close, it’s the City of London. The banking capital that isn’t part of Britain. It’s where the real power lies. The oligarch capital of the world and they control MI6, the CIA, Mossad, CFR, BIS, etc. Read Quigley’s “Tragedy and Hope” and he lays it out. Guido Preperata “Conjuring Hitler” and Col L Fletcher Prouty “The Secret Team” are good too.

Btw—strictly for grins and giggles—are any of the ‘it’s a crime,’ crew mentioning Hillary’s collusion with Ukraine? Are they equally concerned about Leftists colluding with foreign governments against Trump?

Bet none of them care that Saudi Arabia claims to have financed 20% of Hillary’s campaign. Amiright?

I dont know what you are trying to get me to see. This woman has a history. She has dubious Connections. She was using a cutout. It was not an innocent meeting about poor kids.

I have said motive is unclear but this could very well have been an FSB plot for blackmail material.

I am interested to see if we hear anymore about the alleged video of her and the FSB agent. Who leaked it and who is really in it. It is a very short video

It’s not a foreign power. She wasn’t from the Kremlin.

Article using the word “um” or phrase “literally jaw dropping” is written by a nitwit.

Collusion is not illegal.

Lying about collusion is illegal.

No one lied; but that’s how special counsels trip up folks.

The emails imply this is info from the Russian gov and how they want to help Trump. All the claims of never having had any contact “in collusion” with “the Russians” is totally blown. The real question is why did this Rob guy lie about what this woman would have when he meets her. It stinks of a setup, they’ve been planning this for a year.

The cry will be “so what else haven’t you been honest about? we need endless investigations now!!”. And they will get it. It matters not that the Dems did exactly the same thing with the fake “dossier”. It matters not that this isn’t illegal, the impropriety and credibility are the issue. He was naive, shouldn’t have accepted the invite. Of course, the Dems can do this at will, the media won’t go after them and the Repubs probably wouldn’t try such a dirty trick.

This will now just be an endless sh*t storm with cries of “Trump/Russia collusion” to perpetually undermine the President....and now they can’t claim no connections.

No, the part of the code that says “or other thing of value” extends the definition well beyond money - goods, services, intel. The information he thought he could get was clearly of value, or else why try and meet the person?

....

Please do a search for “value” in this article:

I’ve got Trump’s back.

Donald, the son, was a private citizen when this occurred and has remained a private citizen. Donald, the father, is in no way responsible for the actions of his adult child. He revealed, perhaps, a certain amount of naivete in expecting to get some damaging information about the Clintons but that’s all there is to that.

Incidentally, isn’t this EXACTLY the same thing that Sen. John McCain was hoping to get with the fake dossier only McCain is a U.S. Senator and federal employee?

“Sometimes they just make $h!t up, like the Russian dossier. Only nuts and McCain were fooled there.”

I don’t think McCain was fooled. That is just his SOP. He can’t help himself.

I don’t see it that way at all. I think Donald Trump Jr thought what this guy/gal had to say sounded interesting and he wanted to hear about it. Maybe it was something on the uranium deal? Turns out is was a nothing burger and the meeting only went 20 minutes if that.

I am sure if there was something there the legal team would have got involved. But again it was nothing. Of course the dimoKKKRATS will go on and on even if there is nothing there.

The Left, including the media, hates Russia because it can stand up against the invasion of barbarism and globalist control.

Perhaps, but they already had their hooks in Hillary due to her record at State (and Foundation dealings.) They needed to find a way to get their hooks into the Trump camp, so they had something to hold over whoever won.

If, say, Gary Johnson or Evan McMullin had gotten any serious traction, the Russkies would have tried to get a hook in them too.

As Putin’s boy Aleksandr Dugin has said openly, their goal is to cause chaos. (Unfortunately, the left is giving them precisely what they want.) When we are in chaos and steeply divided is when our enemies (Russia, China, Iran, North Korea, etc.) make their move. (And/or when we have leadership inclined not to do anything to stop them, as in the 8 years before President Trump took office..)

If they can get something to hold over any potential leader we might choose, they are free to carry out all their nefarious plans.
