Thanks for posting the Chris Wallace piece.  I don't watch Fox, but it appears that Chris Wallace is not a stooge.  He seems to think.  [/quote]

New poster. Agreed, although watching that video it occurs to me that if the oppo research offered by the russian lawyer is illegal because it is a "thing of value" offered to a campaign by a foreign power, then what does that say about the "dossier" that was compiled by a British national against Trump and was provided to Hillary's campaign?

I thought Jeb! initially hired Steele and then--after his campaign folded--Steele was so alarmed that he continued the research gratis.[/quote]

He hired Steele.  He paid him money in exchange for something of value.   And Steele, though a British citizen, wasn't acting (or at least Jeb Bush didn't believe he was acting) on behalf of the British government (or any other government).  He was acting as a contract employee for Bush.  In addition, even were Steele to have been acting as a British government agent, Great Britain is not considered a hostile nation to the US, so there's that.

This is in almost every was not similar to what Trump Junior did.   Actually in every way.
