Steele is a private individual working as an independent contractor who was hired by Fusion GPS on behalf of the Clinton campaign to do opposition research.
Don Jr. met with people who he knew were representatives of the Russian government with the understanding that this hostile foreign government would be providing dirt on his fatherās opponent because that hostile foreign government wanted his father to be elected. Thatās the very definition of ātreasonā.
Are you saying there would be no Mueller investigation if the Trump campaign had paid the Russian lawyer to meet with them?
Two words: Russian government. Junior sought help from the Russian government. Junior met with emissaries from the Russian government. The Trump campaign colluded with the Russian government.
Then again, Steele sourced information from Russian officials.
Yes, he spoke to Russian sources. If youāre looking for information on Trumpās crimes, you have to talk to Russians because so many of Trumpās crimes involve Russians.
Heās been laundering money for Russian oligarchs since the turn of the century. The preferred Russian method of laundering money is to buy high priced Manhattan real estate.
Steeleās contacts with Russians was not sanctioned by the Russian government and in fact has put Steele on Putinās āhit listā. This is evidence that Putin and the Russian government were NOT involved with the preparation of the Steele dossier because it exposed Putinās campaign to get Trump elected.
If you canāt see the difference, youāre being willfully blind.
