LEGAL/RUSSIA/TRUMP FAMILY/DONALD JR/JARED KUSHNER: “While President Donald Trump’s eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., finds himself at the center of a political firestorm stemming from his controversial meeting with a Russian lawyer last summer, questions are also beginning to swirl around the involvement of another Trump family member who was present for the rendezvous: Jared Kushner.
Trump Jr. agreed to meet with someone he was told was a ‘Russian government attorney’ after receiving an email offering him ‘very high level and sensitive information’ that would ‘incriminate’ Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, according to emails from publicist Rob Goldstone that Trump Jr. publicly released Tuesday [7-11-17].
The New York Times had reported Saturday that Trump Jr. met with Russian attorney Natalia Veselnitskaya, alongside Trump’s son-in-law and senior White House adviser, Kushner, and former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort — an account Trump Jr. later corroborated in a public statement.
The meeting took place June 9, 2016.”
