Yesterday, a couple of lawyers who support Trump were on the news, making what will be the "talking points" that pretend this conspiracy was not illegal. The first is "Amendment 1," claiming this was "free speech," and no different than the publishing of the Pentagon Papers. The second is that the Democrats "paid Russians" for the information contained in the Steele dossier. Though I was tempted to address these pathetic attempts here, I figured it would be better to do so tomorrow in another essay.
