The Russian lawyer denies it:pic.twitter.com/9iHyCbPVvD
We get that Kushner only told the government about this meeting "in recent days." (I don't believe Saturday's story was that specific.)pic.twitter.com/6i8bZTZ9OP
And @DonaldJTrumpJr is still not saying who the "acquaintance" is who allegedly requested the meeting.pic.twitter.com/1KV1cznBtV
And, perhaps the biggest news out of this NYT story is that the spokesperson for Pres. Trump's legal team let Don Jr. out all on his own.pic.twitter.com/60bqhvv4j3
Compare that to the Saturday statement:pic.twitter.com/DaAZcKCg9N
Another very impressive job from @Jo_Becker @mattapuzzo & @adamgoldmanNYT.
This full Donald Trump Jr. statement is WILD. He claims he knows the "acquaintance" from the Miss Universe pageant. https://www.buzzfeed.com/salvadorhernandez/members-of-trumps-inner-circle-met-with-a-kremlin-linked?utm_term=.rnRgXOPNpw#.load0OwgGo …pic.twitter.com/X3nBkYwhJD
Another key point: "As it ended, my acquaintance apologized for taking up our time." So, the acquaintance was at the meeting.
And, here we go. The Post names Rob Goldstone — a music publicist — as the "acquaintance." https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/presidents-son-met-with-russian-lawyer-during-presidential-campaign-after-being-promised-information-helpful-to-fathers-effort/2017/07/09/90c0e3e8-64e9-11e7-8eb5-cbccc2e7bfbf_story.html?utm_term=.88ef2e557331&wpisrc=al_alert-national&wpmk=1 …pic.twitter.com/XGFdl10RnZ
[Sorry, crashed my computer. Too many open tabs. BRB.]
Despite Little Donnie's well documented concern for Russian orphans (his original explanation), somehow I suspect he was looking
for damaging info about Clinton to trade with the Russian lawyer for the lifting of US sanctions against her clients.
Russian lawyer represents the Russian mob/oligarchs/gov't (they're all the same) and has long worked to get the sanctions lifted.
The only UNsurprising thing is just how many meetings TeamTrump has with Russians that they fail to disclose - even when asked under perjury
Clearly, it's #MuellerTime.
Dear god, what will part III bring?
It's going to be a good week if we have breaking stories on Saturday and Sunday! Bring it on.
