CNN’s Camerota: “Open and Shut” that Taking Hillary Dirt from Russia a Crime. Really?
FinkelBlog ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 08/06/2018 4:35:43 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

When it comes to the law, who you gonna believe: legal scholars, or Alisyn Camerota, with her American University degree in “broadcast journalism?”

On CNN this morning, co-host Camerota claimed that it was an “open and shut case” that it was a crime for the Trump campaign to meet with Russians for the purpose of taking dirt on Hillary from them. Always one to keep an open mind, Camerota added:

“I don’t want to parse this anymore. The law says you can’t do this. It’s very clear. The law explicitly says you cannot do this.”

Except that, when it comes to accepting information from foreign nationals, the law "explicitly" says no such thing. And that has been made clear by a variety of legal scholars, including CNN's own Paul Callan, who on CNN's website wrote:

Hillary took ‘dirt’ on Trump from the Russians and paid a Briton millions for it.

Good morning.

If you look in the dictionary under, “ignorant,” you will see a picture of Camerota.

Well, I’m sure that the President’s party will have his back on this .... HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! Yeah, Mitch and Paul will circle the wagons and defend their President! LOL. Trump and his Twitter account are the only opposition to the deep state and its lies. Even if Don Jr. met with a Russian for the sole purpose of hearing dirt on Hillary, there’s no law against that. This entire thing is a hoax that the GOP is allowing to continue.

Can anybody tell me what law she was referring to? There has to be a specific law.

Certainly then it would be a serious crime for Hillary to buy the Steele dossier with Russian sources.

Not only did she buy the dossier, she hid the payment in an account under “undesignated expenses”. Coie, the attorneys, belong in jail for fraud.

Looks like Trump is laying a trap for Mueller and company. Clinton campaign colluded/conspired with the Russians big time for dirt on Trump.

It's in the same section Chris Cuomo cited for the proposition that it is illegal for the public to access Wikileaks.

CNN anchor warns: 'Illegal' for you to look at WikiLeaks

"Also interesting is, remember, it's illegal to possess these stolen documents. It's different for the media. So everything you learn about this, you're learning from us."

Since it is against the law, will Trump be sharing a cell with Hillary for the same “crime” ?
