President Trump’s eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., was promised damaging information about Hillary Clinton before agreeing to meet with a Kremlin-connected Russian lawyer during the 2016 campaign, according to three advisers to the White House briefed on the meeting and two others with knowledge of it.

The meeting was also attended by his campaign chairman at the time, Paul J. Manafort, and his son-in-law, Jared Kushner. Mr. Manafort and Mr. Kushner only recently disclosed the meeting, though not its content, in confidential government documents described to The New York Times.

The Times reported the existence of the meeting on Saturday. But in subsequent interviews, the advisers and others revealed the motivation behind it.


curious how literally everyone around Trump has some undisclosed contacts with Russia

But once more this is ok. 

Funny how Obama bombed the s*** out of Muslim nations and people still suggested he was working with them. But these same people say "there is nothing to see here "after we keep finding out these things about Trump.

This pattern of secret meetings between Trump officials and Russian officials is not suspicious in the slightest. After all, Vladimir Putin insists he didn't do anything to mess with the U.S. elections, and who can you trust if you can't trust Vladimir Putin?

Seriously, I think John McCain might be really concerned right now.

I don't understand how someone can follow the news (even badly) and say "there's no story here"

If there's nothing there, why does literally everyone in his admin who's been caught meeting with Russian personnel behind closed doors feel the need to
A) Be secretive about it in the first place?
and
B) Lie about it?

I was being facetious, personally. But, as plenty of actual people think that way, I can understand why you took it seriously.
I mean, on one hand, you have one of the most bumbling administrations in American history hiding meetings with Russian officials/proxies(poorly) and they can't even agree among themselves what these meetings were about. Hell, Donald Jr. has already supplied two different explanations for HIS meeting, and the story broke less than 12 hours ago!

On the other side, you have Vladimir Putin, a man whose political enemies end up "mysteriously" murdered and has been running Russia with an iron fist for almost two decades now.
The media will stretch this story out so damn far as long as they can, and libs eat it up. When the investigation ends and no collusion is found between Trump and Russia to influence the election, where do Dems go from there?

This could potentially be one of the biggest L's ever taken in U.S. history.

Yeah I think at this point, whether the Trumpers admit so or not, it's simply become whether you want Trump/his administration to get away with it or not.

So Trump's son was trying to find out if the Russians really were stealing sensitive information so he could expose their corruption them and report them to FBI/Intelligence. I don't see why that's so terrible.

I didn't think there was either until Trump and co started making themselves look guilty by lying and firing people that are already being investigated by 3rd party agencies before the investigations are even closed.

A private meeting with Comey in which he asked everyone to leave isn't suspicious either. Not in the slightest.

it's necessary now

the original story, that it was a discussion of adoption policy, was inherently an admission of guilt: the lawyer he met with was specifically spearheading the effort of ending the US law/sanctions associated with the murder of anti-putin politicians. when we passed that law, the russians retaliated by ending all US adoptions of russian children

trump has been pretty clear about his desire to work in concert with putin, which is to say to work against our allies

Donald Trump Jr's own statements about the meeting suggest a violation of the Logan Act.
Logan Act

Any citizen of the United States, wherever he may be, who, without authority of the United States, directly or indirectly commences or carries on any correspondence or intercourse with any foreign government or any officer or agent thereof, with intent to influence the measures or conduct of any foreign government or of any officer or agent thereof, in relation to any disputes or controversies with the United States, or to defeat the measures of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both.

This section shall not abridge the right of a citizen to apply himself, or his agent, to any foreign government, or the agents thereof, for redress of any injury which he may have sustained from such government or any of its agents or subjects.

That's fairly minor, of course, but again, a crime has been committed just by Donald Jr's own admission

So Donnie Jr reports the Russians to the FBI.

What is the FBI gonna do? Arrest them?
