"Strongly suggest your dad tweets this link if he mentions us,” WikiLeaks wrote in a message to Trump Jr. on Oct. 12, 2016, including a link.

“There’s many great stories the press are missing and we’re sure some of your follows [sic] will find it,” WikiLeaks continued. “Btw we just released Podesta Emails Part 4.”

The report detailed how Trump engaged in private correspondence with the transparency site during the 2016 campaign, and that WikiLeaks made multiple requests of him.

Trump Jr. confirmed he turned over the messages in three separate tweets where he linked the back and forth exchange with WikiLeaks.

.... The problem with all of this is clearly that Wikileaks is not an American entity. They aren’t an American company while Julian Assange himself is technically — just like Rupert Murdock — is an Australian.

And that coordinating your campaign or accepting gifts of any value from foreign nationals or organization is a direct violation of Federal Campaign Finance Laws. ...........

... that this was ALL KNOWN before the election.

The FBI, DoJ, and Obama's White House knew about all of this (or most of it.)
Why was there even an election? It should have been delayed or stopped before November 8th.
For one thing, Mitch McConnell wouldn't let the election be delayed. I'm guessing Ryan was also preventing it.

Things could have been done over a year ago, but they weren't. Now look where we are!
