Initially, "collusion" was supposed to relate to knowing conspiracy to commit a specific crime (i.e., Trump "colluded" with Russian Govt. officials to disseminate hacked emails)

But there's not even the allegation here, presumably, that Stein had any involvement with the dissemination of hacked emails. So that "collusion" standard wouldn't apply to her.

So, what "collusion" offense could Stein have hypothetically committed? If we define "collusion" as simply interfacing with 'Russian-backed' actors over the course of a campaign, then Stein could already be guilty. For one, she participated in an RT-sponsored Green Party debate.pic.twitter.com/xlgVHiMQ5a

By that standard, Trump would also be guilty by dint of appearing on Larry King's show, which is licensed by RT. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9_5MtZ0Wv70 …

But this just highlights how much the parameters of "colluded" have expanded: far beyond any recognizable criminal offense, and into the realm of what you might call "political offenses." It's utterly incoherent.

What about Bill CLINTON taking $500k from Kremlin run bank Renaissance Capital?
@SenFeinstein -
And the Clinton Foundation receiving over $100 million dollars from Russia.

If you've ever tweeted the word "Russian" you have colluded.

Russiagate is failing, so they're trying to save/preserve it from an angle

Maybe yes, maybe no. She was at the same table with Flynn and Putin at the RT gala. As always, follow the money.

She received no money to attend. She paid her own way to attend.
