Can we also draw a distinction between oppo research & what Russia was offering? Stop buying DJTjr's narrative that it was oppo.
Again, I agree it is different, largely bc it was offered up and discussed in context of quid pro quo. But oppo goes well beyond public info

Getting ppl to talk (human sourcing) is different than committing crimes to get the info. For example, torturing to get oppo, not ok.
-
I'm not sure where the torture came in? Comparison is Steele (no qpq) v Don Jr (implied qpq).
-
Steele conducting research not at the direction of a foreign power (so far as we know), asking sources to divulge, so not B&E to get it.
-
Oh. I see you've jumped ahead to assume the dirt that the lawyer was delivering was the emails. W/o (yet) evidence to support that.
-
We may get there. But thus far, as late as June 20, Steele's sources said the RU info on Hillary was stuff collected over years.

Hillary would have resurrected Lenin if she heard he had damaging info on trump. Who are we kidding here! Faux outrage over common practice!
