Look, troll - in case you are actually near-sentient I will let you know something:
It is more than apparent to anyone with two neurons to rub together that the entire Trump cabal is a bunch of corrupt gangsters who actively conspired in an attempt to collude with an enemy State, and in the process compromised themselves to such a degree that they are paralyzed in fear that that State's dictator will spill the beans on them, and they are therefore doing everything they can to appease him.
All your bloviations can't change that FACT. You can speculate on how many of them will end up in jail or impeached, but you cannot change the above FACT.
I don’t think you get my points at all and confuse comments on inconclusive as denial.
I’m not a supporter of any of the 2 main political parties in the U.S.A though generally favoured the Democrats in the past. My view during the last election was Trump was slightly less bad than Hilary.
My comments are based on a wealth of experience in investigating conflict of interest, fraud, misinformation as well as dispute resolution for major state run and private corporations worldwide.
There are several steps to an investigation and the media sure make a mess of it with respect to linking events to a conclusion.
There are several steps to an investigation. Some provide models of something like 10 to 12 phases.
The Media never gets past step 1.
For instance, a situation begins with a complaint or an anonymous tip or better still a ‘red flag’ that may lead to something, media reports treat this as a conclusion. (Irregular books or missing figures before investigation is a red flag).
They have done a better job with Kushner but it seems based on current information the passing of information on Clinton may not have taken place. It is also possible to check whether this bait was a ploy by the Russians to entice some Republicans into a meeting to find out about lifting of sanctions.
There is no doubt Kushner and Co had the intent to ‘find something out’ about Hilary but perhaps this was just a bait and switch to attract his attention. Or was information secretly passed on. If so what exactly was it? is the key question.
Step 2 should be a quick logical step but the media tends to stay at step 1
What is Step 2?
Evaluate the information and determine whether there is enough to then proceed with an evaluation. In some case part of what I have given in Step 1 will be in Step 2.
I am sure in this respect that checks into the background of this are taking place as further steps but the goal is to produce a full report taking full investigative information into account. The report must be detailed and precise
The report must show the precise time and date sequence of events and is organised into elements of proven facts against the alleged offences.
I won’t go through all the steps. I can if required but such an incontinent tomb would not be relevant at this time.
Further the report unclassified report from intelligence services seems to be a rush job and does not provide full pictures of the situation, even if there is a perceived need to keep some parts secret for security reasons. I wonder if the services were under pressure to produce this fast when it should take a few months.
