    Default CNN's own legal analyst dashes panel's collusion narrative

    They talk about accepting things of value, and then go on to make it clear that the dossier emanated from Hillary. So now, it's either illegal for both - or suddenly no longer illegal. It always ends up circling the wagons back to democrats.

    CNN's own legal analyst dashes panel's collusion narrative

    Some analysts have argued the Trump Tower meeting is a violation of election law, which prevents campaigns from accepting any “thing of value” from a foreign national.

    “I think there’s actually a fairly good argument that it’s not illegal, that information would not be considered by the courts to be a ‘thing of value,’ largely because of the First Amendment,” Garber explained.

    Garber also compared the meeting to the Clinton campaign paying for the infamous Steele dossier, which was at least in part compiled with the help of Russian nationals.

    “Then the other thing the president points out, fairly, is if information is a thing of value, well then what about the information that came from Russian nationals and to the Clinton campaign and the DNC through Steele?That’s a fair point,” Garber asserted.

    CNN anchor Wolf Blitzer tried to pivot away from Garber’s point about Clinton, but the legal analyst brought it up again later in the panel discussion.

    “In the Clinton situation there is information coming from Russian nationals to the Clinton campaign through somebody else,” Garber reiterated.

    And it's demonstrably proveable Clinton got something of value because she paid for the information.
    “… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.

    And so did the DNC, and the FBI. And then that little SHIT Rosenstein used it to appoint a S.C. knowing it was false, not to mention used it to get FISA warrants renewed. That's the thanks president Trump gets for appointing him... stabbed in the back.
