Tell me about Treason.
What constitutes Treason?

Changing the subject are we? I don't know the legal definition of treason. I haven't accused Trump Jr. of treason - at least not in a legal sense.

If your defense of him is "He's not technically guilty of Treason", then fine, I think we can stipulate that.

Pretty low bar you are setting, isn't it?

I am not a defender. As far as I can see, no defense is needed.
Treason is being discussed by the Dems. Or didn't you know?

Ha! this one is funny. The former AG let this woman into the country and here MSNMC refers to her as a spy!

"we do not collaborate with Russian spies"
"This borders on treason, if it is not itself treason.”"

I don't think anyone has called her a spy specifically. You know that Painter is not a Democrat, right? He was Bush's ethics lawyer.

Actually, @MarAzul I have heard that the CIA often does not obstruct people they believe are involved with foreign intelligence engaging in espionage as they want to monitor them. They don't want the foreign government know that they have ID'd their contact.

"Nothing to see here" is definitely a defense, albeit a poor one since we can see the emails.

That makes you a defender (albeit a poor one).

Go ahead, give it a go. No children here.
I am especially interested in whom officially put the Russians in enemy status Since Hillary and Obama had the reset button pushing ceremony?
 
@MarAzul I had a nice dinner aboard a friend's sailboat recently. Man that's the life. My wife wants a boat now and I'm like ummm..... I've heard the best two days you have with a boat are the day you buy it and the day you sell it. Still, seems nice to be on the sailboat and barbecue up some surf and turf and enjoy some wine. But, I don't want to spend that kind of money.

I believe you are correct.
 
I think I know a few people who have no problem believing this:


...and in fact are outraged that anyone else doesn't

Hey Sly, I heard that a representative of the Lakers are willing to give you some pretty compromising information on Denny. I can set up a meeting with you and Magic Johnson's lawyer. The Lakers would like to provide this sensitive information as part of their support for Mr. Sly.

Two months before Donald Trump Jr.’s encounter with a Russian figure, a key House subcommittee chairman received a similar overture in Moscow offering derogatory information about a U.S. policy that was upsetting Vladimir Putin.

Rep. Dana Rohrabacher, a California Republican with a reputation as a Moscow ally in Congress, told The Hill the information he received in April 2016 came from the chief prosecutor in Moscow and painted an alternative picture of the Russian fraud case that led to the passage of anti-Russia legislation in Congress known as the Magnitsky Act.

“I had a meeting with some people, government officials, and they were saying, ‘Would you be willing to accept material on the Magnitsky case from the prosecutors in Moscow? ‘And I said, ‘Sure, I’d be willing to look at it,’” Rohrabacher recalled in an interview.

The congressman’s account provides the latest evidence that the overture to President Trump’s eldest son in June 2016 by a Russian lawyer named Natalia Veselnitskaya was part of a larger campaign by Moscow that predated the Trump Tower encounter and continued afterwards.

The focus was to sow distrust among American leaders about the Magnitsky Act, and influence far more than Trump’s inner circle. It included lobbying overtures to journalists, State Department officials and lawmakers and congressional staff from both parties, according to interviews with participants and recipients of the campaign.

...

Rohrabacher’s account mirrors several aspects of Donald Trump Jr., who said he accepted the June 9, 2016 meeting with Veselnitskaya because he thought he was getting political dirt on his father’s Democratic opponent Hillary Clinton from a prosecutor in Moscow.

But when the dirt was delivered it was about the Magnitsky law and the adoption dispute, not Clinton, the Trump son said.

The congressman, who chairs the House Foreign Affairs Subcommittee on Europe, Eurasia and Emerging threats and is openly friendly with Russia, said he was on an official congressional fact-finding trip to Moscow when he was told to expect the delivery of derogatory information important to America and that the source was going to be the chief prosecutor in Moscow.

Rohrabacher said he received a package of documents as he was ending a meeting in the Russian legislative body known as the Duma.

“At the end of the meeting simply as I was walking out, they said this gentleman has some documents for you. And he handed them to me. And that was as far as my meeting with the prosecutors went,” he said. “We got the information, we looked at it and we asked various people about the issue.”

...

Rohrabacher’s arguments echo those of the Trump administration, but contrast with officials from Democratic and Republican campaigns who have said it would be very unusual for a U.S. campaign to accept the meeting proposed to Trump Jr.

When Rohrabacher got back to Washington from his official trip from Moscow, he circulated to fellow lawmakers a memo summarizing what the Russians provided, much of it suggesting U.S. officials had the wrong theory about the Magnitsky case.
 
HANNITY: So as far as you know, as far as this incident is concerned, this is all of it?

TRUMP JR.: This is everything. This is everything.

(except the "former" Russian spy in the room.)
