    Did Donald Trump Jr. Cross the Line With WikiLeaks?

    “If anyone actually entered in the username and password or entered in the password to the website, that’s a federal crime.”




    Can it be a crime to do opposition research by asking foreigners for information?

    In correspondence with Trump’s son, the WikiLeaks account shared details about a new anti-Trump website it said was about to launch, putintrump.org, and provided the login information for the site.


    “We have guessed the password. It is ‘putintrump,” the message read.

    “Off the record I don’t know who that is, but I’ll ask around,” Donald Trump Jr. responded.

    Sending a Twitter direct message was an incredibly dumb move, at least from a digital security perspective, but Assange’s WikiLeaks continued to communicate with Trump’s son over Twitter for at least another 10 months, long after his father became president.


    The direct messages were shared with congressional investigators by Trump Jr.’s lawyers.

    Twitter’s direct messages are not encrypted, which make it a poor medium for correspondence with a high-profile, potentially soon-to-be U.S. president’s son, especially if that correspondence is about hacking into someone else’s website.


    That’s because stealing a password and then using it without authorization is a violation of a federal anti-hacking law called the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act.


    If the Trump campaign did use the password to sneak into the backend of an opposition website, WikiLeaks potentially led the Trump campaign to participate in criminal activity.

    The entire Trump / Russia collusion case us based on one word....."if". Of course there's never been any evidence to support the "if", but that doesn't matter.
