-Illegally sourcing bogus intelligence reports from foreign agents

What are you talking about here Dope? Since this is a lie, and I'm not using your bad sources, I have little to go by. Could you be talking about the Steele Dossier? That wasn't a foreign intelligence report, it was political opposition research ordered by Hillary's party. And it was never asserted to be anything more than that.

SNIP The Steele dossier, also known as the Trump–Russia dossier,[1] is a controversial political opposition research report compiled by Christopher Steele. It was published without permission in 2017 as an unfinished 35-page compilation of "unverified, and potentially unverifiable"[a] memos that were considered by Steele "to be raw intelligence — not established facts, but a starting point for further investigation".[3][4][5]

The dossier was written from June to December 2016 and contains allegations of misconduct, conspiracy, and cooperation between Donald Trump's presidential campaign and the government of Russia prior to and during the 2016 election campaign.[6] Several key dossier allegations made in June 2016 about the Russian government's efforts to get Trump elected, were later described as "prescient"[7] because they were corroborated six months later in the January 2017 report by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence[8][9] and the Mueller Report, namely that Vladimir Putin favored Trump over Hillary Clinton;[8][10] that he personally ordered an "influence campaign" to harm Clinton's campaign and to "undermine public faith in the US democratic process"; that he ordered cyberattacks on both parties;[8] and that many Trump campaign officials and associates had numerous secretive contacts with Russian officials and agents.[11][12] SNIP

So how is that illegal sourcing ( hint: It isn't) and how does opposition research become intelligence reports? Nothing to do with our intelligence agencies.

Or is it that you are thinking the classified documents found at Mar a Lago are opposition research by foreign governments?
