And to wrap up the argument, can they get information from foreign nationals? Yes.


Well I’d say it depends on what the information is. FEC does consider that some information can constitute a “contribution.”

So what's the problem with trumps comment?

Didn’t see? Trump changed his mind. Would now turn in any info from another country. No need to defend anymore

Federal Election Commission (FEC) Chairwoman Ellen Weintraub said Thursday it is illegal to accept foreign assistance during elections after President Trump publicly suggested he would accept foreign intelligence on opponents. "I would not have thought that I needed to say this," Weintraub tweeted Thursday with her statement. "Let me make something 100 percent clear to the American public and anyone running for public office: It is illegal for any person to solicit, accept, or receive anything of value from a foreign national in connection with a U.S. election," Weintraub said.

"Contribution" as it's used in the CFR is a complicated matter. See subsection (8).

contribution as described in CFR

Everything in that entire subsection is services , money or products.

Stupid libs like Decatur want to redefine everything in the world so that they can authoritatively say "orange man bad"

Same scenario with the left and MSM setting/defining what the "truth" is, so if it doesnt line up with their version of the truth....issa lie.

For leftists, the end justifies the means, and by any means necessary is acceptable to them.

You wish.

Problem is, i dont think oppo research is illegal.

Making knowingly fake stories and using dirty intel agency leaders to create a FAKE treason claim against the duly elected president is in itself treason.

Im sorry you are unable to comprehend the difference.

I'm saying that in this instance, there is publicly available information that indicates that the FISA application was well founded.

For example, you had DoJ appointees from both Obama and Trump admins sign off on multiple re-authorizations.
