Thats great, except for the e-mails and documents which clearly indicate, without any ambiguity, that Don Junior took the meeting because he thought he was getting dirt on his fathers political rival, not because of any other motive whatsoever.
I mean, this is great and all, but the meeting as it has been described, was arranged with the specific understanding on Donnie's part, that there would be something to report to his father, on the matter of Clinton at the end of it.
Prove it.

But this is exactly as was described by Trump Jr. Yes, he met her hoping for some dirt on Hillary (something that is not a crime, it's done by all in politics, all)
that is, in fact, a crime in this situation.

What? When did Trump become a police officer?
You just described a vigilante at best which is illegal.

Someone giving you information about a crime doesn't equal you being a vigilante. Ever heard of private investigators? Do you think private investigators are illegal vigilantes?
You attempting to or actually punish someone for an alleged crime now that's vigilantism. Get it now?

Did you know P I's are registered and a credited?
Does he have to register a meeting with foreign agents? Was money transaction discussed?
Oh that's right all you have is the MSM to go by.

Your definition of "anything of value" may not be what the FEC definition is.

Federal law makes it a crime for any person to “solicit, accept or receive” a contribution or “anything of value” from a foreign person for a U.S. political campaign or “for the purpose of influencing any election for federal office.”
In AO 2014-20 (Make Your Laws PAC), the Commission concluded that a political action committee could accept assistance from a foreign national in developing intellectual property for the PAC, such as trademarks, graphics, and website design because the services accepted by the PAC would fall under the volunteer exemption. Similarly, in AO 2004-26 (Weller), the Commission held that a foreign national could attend, speak at campaign events for a federal candidate, and solicit contributions to the campaign. However, the Commission cautioned that the foreign national could not manage or participate in any of the campaign committee’s decision-making processes. See also AOs 2007-22 (Hurysz) and 1987-25 (Otaola).

Now let's say Don jr did get some dirt on Hillary. Can you show how said information has monetary value?
You people are incredulous. You guys think the supposed dossier on Trump is okay but obtaining information of clintons crimes is illegal? Effing laughable.
