You are really confused. Foreign GOVERNMENTS are prohibited from helping a candidate in any way. There is no such prohibition about hiring a non-American to get information on a candidate. Steele was a private citizen not a foreign Govt. Nothing stinks like the e-mail to Don Jr. where the Russian Govt. is offering dirt on Hillary and Don says "Love it". THAT is collusion.

You just described the Steele dossier, don't ya know?

False.

Doubly false, being offered proof of ILLEGAL activity is not being offered something in kind. In fact, the GPS affiliated Russian National lobbyist lied about what she had. Funny how they just keep coming up, isn't it?

Yes that is the consensus of both our intelligence agencies and our allies. Again accepting help from or colluding with foreign govts. about that help is a Federal crime.

Whether Don Jr. was lying about that or not is part of what Mueller is investigating. But being offered help by Russia and Don Jr. response in the email is evidence that the Trump campaign was open to accepting that help. You can't get around that. They also failed to report that activity to the FBI and subsequencially lied about their Russian contacts multiple times.
 
Geez I have grown to hate these sensa-touch keypads and touch-pads. I just can't get used to it and I can't tune it so that it works for me. Anyway, sorry for the spelling error in my last post.

Why didn't they report ANY of the Russian contacts like they were specifically asked to do by the FBI? You "got around " that? Surely you jest.

How is it you know what is on their disclosure forms?

Are you assuming again?

Lastly, ANY is a pretty large assumption. Care to try for something you have a snowball's chance in hell of defending?

Ignore their article, but HuffPo has the redacted memo embedded here:

https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/comey-memos-released_us_5ad93952e4b0e4d0715ecc05






I'm sure the usual supects will scream "fake", but it's actually common practice to make memos after talking to someone who might be untrustworthy OR even for the simple reason of having a record of what was said.

Too bad Trump didn't seem to have the "recordings" he hinted at long ago.

Out of curiosity, if there is no classified material in the memos as Comey has announced repeatedly, what was redacted?
