U.S. president defends son after emails over Russian campaign help

Just another Trump Witch Hunt.  Dream on Resisters.

Near the end of its Tuesday story on Donald Trump Jr.’s meeting with a Russian lawyer, the New York Times casually noted that the news “blunted whatever good feeling the president’s team had after his trip to Europe.”

Excuse me, but wasn’t blunting the president’s success the whole point of the latest installment of the Russia, Russia, Russia story?

Isn’t that why the leakers leaked when they did, and why the Times splashed the story on its front page day after day?

And it appears you missed this part as well:

 

"The company had originally been hired by Republican rivals of Mr Trump during the primary campaign"

 

Your but, but, but, Hillary deflection has become as old as the hills...

 

"The Dem's are notorious for instigating dirty tricks especially the Clinton's."

More InfoWars gibberish?

Absolutely. Actually, they had this story 2 months ago but were just waiting with it to blunt "whatever good feeling the president’s team had after his trip to Europe.”

Time to un-pop the champagne….lol.

"Trump put family first when I worked for him. It was disastrous. Trump Jr. is another case.  Donald Trump Jr. has experience in one thing only, and that is being a family member to Donald Trump. That, unfortunately, is all the experience he needs in the eyes of the president."

When a Witch Hunt Finds Real Witches

 

"Now that the emails have proved Junior to be a brazen liar about his dealings with Russians,

everything he has said on the subject should be subject to new scrutiny."

 

"Junior exhibits a curious lack of curiosity about why Goldstone promised Clinton-sinking information from Veselnitskaya,

only to have her plead for help in repealing the Magnitsky Act, which imposes economic sanctions on Russia."

 

"Based on his inept lies, Junior might be less a witch and more a dupe than the others in Trump’s inner circle."

Former Soviet Counterintelligence Officer at Meeting With Donald Trump Jr. and Russian Lawyer

The Russian lawyer who met with Donald Trump Jr. and others on the Trump team after a promise of compromising material on Hillary Clinton was accompanied by a Russian-American lobbyist — a former Soviet counterintelligence officer who is suspected by some U.S. officials of having ongoing ties to Russian intelligence, NBC News has learned.

The lobbyist, who denies any current ties to Russian spy agencies, accompanied the lawyer, Natalia Veselnitskaya, to the June 2016 meeting at Trump Tower attended by Donald Trump Jr.; Jared Kushner, the president's son-in-law; and Paul Manafort, former chairman of the Trump campaign.

Aha! The "interpreter" has been exposed.

I was wondering about that guy...

 

"The presence at the meeting of a Russian-American with suspected intelligence ties is likely to be of interest to special counsel Robert Mueller and the House and Senate panels investigating the Russian election interference campaign."

The June 2016 meeting at Trump Tower with Donald Trump Jr., Jared Kushner and Paul Manafort included more people beyond the Russian lawyer, Natalia Veselnitskaya, a source familiar with the circumstances tells CNN.

The revelation comes as The Associated Press reported Friday that a Russian-American lobbyist named Rinat Akhmetshin said he also attended the June 2016 meeting with Donald Trump Jr. CNN has reached out to Akhmetshin for comment.

Akhmetshin is a registered lobbyist for Veselnitskaya's organization that has focused on lobbying Washington to overturn the Magnitsky sanctions, according to lobbying records

 

Now what!!

Russian-American lobbyist joined Trump’s son’s meeting, too

 

"WASHINGTON (AP) — A prominent Russian-American lobbyist and former Soviet military officer attended a meeting with President Donald Trump’s son, son-in-law and campaign chairman last year, the lobbyist said Friday, adding a new wrinkle to the Trump team’s evolving explanations about the June 2016 session."

 

"He’s a well-known Washington presence, lobbying for Russian interests trying to undermine the allegations of a lawyer who died in a Russian prison and is the namesake of a U.S. sanctions law."

 

"Asked about Akhmetshin’s participation, Manafort spokesman Jason Maloni declined comment. Trump Jr.’s attorney did not respond to inquiries, nor did a spokesman for Kushner."
