This is a non-argument. I do not dispute that he did or not.

I assert strongly that no one on earth should care in the slightest.

There were no charges related to information, sharing, or Russians.

Sharing non-classified information is completely legal. Working for a foreign business is legal. Getting paid is legal. Almost everything is legal.

Acting as an foreign agent without disclosure is illegal, in limited scope. The FARA violation related to Ukraine.
