What is very telling for me is Goldstone wrote this -

This is obviously very high level and sensitive information but is part of Russia and its government's support for Mr. Trump
​

That underlined section - This person is telling Donald Trump Jr that information he has is "part of Russia and its government's support for Mr. Trump" and Donnie Jr. isn't shocked, surprised or questions that statement but instead

Thanks Rob, I appreciate that. I am on the road at the moment but perhaps I just speak to Emin first. Seems we have some time and if it’s what you say I love it especially later in the summer. Can we do a call first thing next week when I am back?

In 2000 somebody anonymously sent Gore campaign George W. Bush's debate prep handbook(inc video??). First thing the Gore campaign did was call the FBI.

Former Cruz campaign spox said if he had gotten an email like Donnie Jr. got his first task would be to call the FBI.

And your last point illustrates what happens when an outsider tries to enter Washington. They make all sorts of fuck ups

NO.
We most of us distinctly DO NOT want that
And if it were up to me I'd let Trump off any hook he might be on for it

I hear you, just seems like many people do not understand the line of succession.

Pence is just a lil too quiet for my liking and the people he run with absolutely scare me. Mainly Erik Prince, due to the fact that he truely believes he is gods chosen warrior.

 

[ripskater]

Trump isn't going anywhere.

So it's not at all outlandish to presume that they were playing a much more direct and active role in the breech than as mere, passive recipients of these hacks...

If they conspired to commit a crime (hacking) then string 'em up when the evidence rises to the standard of proof. If they simply attempted to acquire information as to criminal activity of a former SOS and current Presidential candidate then that's just smart and to the benefit of the American people. lol at anyone not wanting evidence of her (potential) crimes just because of the source. Police coerce use scumbag informants all the time and nobody says boo.

Don Jr. isn't in public office so he doesn't really have any obligation to the truth that I can see. If there's an impeachable offense on The Donald's part then let's get the party started.

It also seems that a lot of people don't understand that Trump's apparent criminality and corruption isn't about Gerald Ford.

It's simply not compelling anymore to pretend that this doesn't all trace back to the leader himself. Too many omissions, too many lies. They're stacked too high, now.

Trump isn't going anywhere.

I hope not until his term is up anyway

Analysis: Donald Trump Jr.’s Russia emails shake the presidency

First the meeting involving Trump Jr., Kushner, and Manafort was exposed by the New York Times , for which we've already been given three different explanations by Trump Jr., and now we have a separate development with these emails concerning the revelation of his intent to collude preceding the meeting.

The subject of this thread is the full text of those emails, not the meeting itself which has its own discrete mega-thread already. Donald Jr. only assented to publish them on Twitter after The New York Times threatened to publish them in full themselves anyway:
Read Donald Trump Jr.'s emails seeking sensitive information about Hillary Clinton from Russia


Here is the full text of those emails:
https://www.usatoday.com/story/news...nformation-hillary-clinton-russia/468394001/#

Crumb by crumb the "fake news" is slowly piecing together the truth, and the shape it's taking is that Trump is a criminal on par with Nixon.

I can't believe how fucking dumb Don Jr is.


It's fucking pathetic.


Russian spies are probing him and he's trying to clear space in his schedule to meet with them faster.

That's crazy. The email literally says, the Russian government is going to help the Trump campaign and Jr. Couldn't be more thrilled.

I think he's 1 term. And that may very well be all he wants.

You left out
"Trumpbots deny reality until it's shown to them, and then they deny it anyways"

Tim Kaine: THIS IS TREASON!!!!!

Overpressure: Trump supporters are denying reality....


How is a private citizen digging up dirt on Hillary Clinton committing Treason? When did Clinton become the sovereignty of the United States of America? This is why people are laughing at you, because you have to oversell every story only to admit later you have nothing.

 

[Scheme]

Still don't see anything illegal, or even that bad.

Let's say that Russians had classified information on Hillary. Shouldn't you accept that with open arms, then send it to the FBI for investigation?

It was Tim Kaine Jr.

Why are you deliberately distorting the truth?

*Edit* Nvm, he referred to Trump Jr.

Well, to answer your question, because colluding with foreign governments against the sovereignty of your own (such as its endeavor to stage unmolested campaigns) is a deeply troubling issue. Nevertheless, this is just his opinion. The reality of Trump's malfeasance isn't influenced by any individual's opinion.

You do know that every story builds upon the next, right?

The more that comes out, the fisher things seem. There's no way you can deny that.

Were you around for Bill's dress stain?
That's the last time a POTUS did something so fucking dumb I couldn't believe it.
It was worse with him because he was a Rhodes scholar. I don't expect intelligence from John Miller.

Of course you wouldn't.

You don't actually give a fuck.

Nothing will come of this nothingburger.

Except they didn't. Instead, they accepted the hacked info and denied any meeting.

CNN ran with Kaine not Kaine Jr., seems like your complaint is with them.

No mess.
