How hard is that?

I fail to see how this accounts for the usage of the dossier...

Has it been verified YET?

The veracity is important. The motivations are not.

The dossier was being investigated by the FBI because, shocker, it was turned over to the FBI...

Motivations ARE important! They're so important that our legal system takes them into consideration when judging guilt!

Who turned it over, and to whom? What were their motivations?

What was the Clinton Campaign’s motivation in commissioning a foreign agent to interview other foreigners?

The left has lived with double standards so long, they think they are the standard, period.

I believe there is a justifiable investigation into the Steele dossier itself going on right now...

And the intent of the Republicans that started the Steele dossier, and the Clinton campaign that continued it, was to understand Trump's personal history and find out if there were any areas that they could leverage for their advantage. There's no reason that interviewing foreigners should be of a concern.

So it doesn’t matter if the info comes from foreigners? Isn’t that what I have been saying?
