Here @slate I explain why knowingly taking foreign opposition research gathered by a foreign government is a crime (that Trump Jr should have been more fully investigated for by Mueller) google.com/amp/s/slate.co…
And for all those in my mentions coming back to the Steele Dossier, the big difference is that it is fine to pay foreign individuals for services at market rates (which is what happened with the Dossier). Not ok to take campaign benefit for free from a foreign government.
