Comment: This is a big story. It means that the lawyer that met with Donald Trump Jr., Jared Kushner, Paul Manafort and others at Trump Tower in Manhattan. wasn't just a Russian lawyer.

Not only does it violate the law, it also is potential evidence of the collusion that Senior said didn't happen.
