So the Donald Trump Jr. story is the big them for the obsessed and corrupt media. Some Democrats, including Hillary Clinton are calling what Donald Trump Jr. did by meeting with a Russian lawyer who had absolutely no ties to Putin or the Kremlin ‘treason.’ Ok. If what Trump Jr. is treason, then what about Hillary Clinton and her campaign? They went to Ukraine (including the government) to try and dig up dirt on Donald Trump during the election. Of course there hasn’t been a peep about this from the corrupt media. Even the Ukrainian embassy worked directly with reporters to dig up dirt on Trump. So isn’t this treason also little Timmay?
Hillary Clinton campaign used Ukraine to dig up dirt on Trump – media silent |

A veteran DNC operative who previously worked in the Clinton White House, Alexandra Chalupa, worked with Ukrainian government officials and journalists from both Ukraine and America to dig up Russia-related opposition research on Trump and Manafort. She also shared her anti-Trump research with both the DNC and the Clinton campaign, according to the Politico report.
Chalupa met with Ukrainian ambassador Valeriy Chaly and one of his aides, Oksara Shulyar, at the Ukrainian Embassy in March 2016 to talk about unearthing Paul Manafort’s Russian connections, Chalupa admitted to Politico. Four days later, Trump officially hired Manafort.
“The day after Manafort’s hiring was revealed, she briefed the DNC’s communications staff on Manafort, Trump and their ties to Russia, according to an operative familiar with the situation,” Politico reported.
The Politico report also notes that the DNC encouraged Chalupa to try to arrange an interview with Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko to talk about Manafort’s ties to the former pro-Russia president of Ukraine, Viktor Yanukovych, whom Manafort previously advised.
The embassy declined to arrange the meeting but was nevertheless “helpful,” Chalupa told Politico. “If I asked a question, they would provide guidance, or if there was someone I needed to follow up with,” she said, but added that “There were no documents given, nothing like that.”
Chalupa also told Politico that the Ukrainian embassy worked directly with reporters in uncovering dirt on Manafort and Trump.
