"What seemed to be obvious almost a year ago, now appears to be confirmed. The previously undisclosed details about Ms. Veselnitskaya rekindle questions about who she was representing when she met with Donald Trump Jr., Jared Kushner, Paul Manafort and others at Trump Tower in Manhattan during the campaign. The meeting, one focus of the special counsel investigation into Russia’s election interference, was organized after an intermediary promised that Ms. Veselnitskaya would deliver documents that would incriminate Mrs. Clinton. The Russians stole documents. They promised documents to Trump. They met to discuss those documents. The documents were delivered through WikiLeaks. Trump operatives had advance knowledge of both contents and timing on WikiLeaks releases. Donald Trump Jr. had communications with WikiLeaks to strategize on releases. Donald Trump used that information in his campaign rallies. Both Cambridge Analytica and Russian operatives used the information in stories targeted at key voter districts. They used the Democratic voter-turnout model they had stolen to target voters for suppression. They lied about every step. That’s a conspiracy. And every step of that conspiracy is now public knowledge."
