Its a matter of professional ethics in this case combined with everything else that has raised questions, the action on its own may not be "illegal" but it's these actions in conjunction with others that have raised red flags and questions of political ethics and influences.

No matter how you want to look at this, all it really has proven is who is liars and hypocrites

"...Summer 2016, a top Hillary Clinton staffer gets a message: “A Miss Universe contestant — Miss Slovakia — says that Donald Trump had sexually harassed her. Would you like to get her story?” The staffer says, “I’d love to,” and indeed gets the information, which he then uses in the campaign....What’s more, this would apply not just to foreigners who live abroad. If a Slovakian college student who is studying in the United States called the Clinton campaign with such information, that would be a crime. If the Clinton campaign heard that Mar-a-Lago was employing illegal immigrants in Florida and staffers went down to interview the workers, that would be a crime...

...A foreign national shall not, directly or indirectly, make a contribution or a donation of money or other thing of value, or expressly or impliedly promise to make a contribution or a donation, in connection with any Federal, State, or local election...No person shall knowingly solicit, accept, or receive from a foreign national any contribution or donation prohibited by [this law]...”

The key words are "go down there" to Mar-a-Lago on a mission..... She came to them, all on her own.

Words are not currency.


You suggesting blackmail? Really?
You going to throw someone in jail for listening to another person talk?
You are a Communist and don't know it.

How do YOU know? Were you at the meeting? You believe a proven liar? That's precious!

Of course information has value! Would you dispute that?

surprised someone in Mexico City comments so often about the US govt.

I'm a native Ohioan, and not even Latino. But hey look, another deflection. Shame on you for putting the interests of a single man above the interests of your country.

I created the thread and Clinton getting dirt on Trump, McCain on Obama, Obama on Romney, in anyway possible applies here too.

Please don't think for me.

Donny jr definitely got info. And shared it with his dad, who said in a speech that very night he'd be releasing dirt on Hilary.

Then we had the wikileaks on podesta an hour after the access Hollywood tape.

If Satan himself approached Podesta, Brazille or Shultz,
with dirt on Trump, they would have sold their souls.

You should read the article.

Neither Hillary nor anyone in her campaign had contact with the Ukrainian government regarding Trump.

That's why they carefully alluded to "allies" in the headline.
