The Senate Judiciary Committee chairman announces that he will release transcripts of interviews with Donald Trump Jr. and others who attended that notorious Trump Tower meeting.

The Senate Judiciary Committee will soon release the transcript of its interview with Donald Trump Jr. as well as other witness testimony related to a controversial 2016 meeting at Trump Tower with a Kremlin-linked lawyer, Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) said Thursday. 

Grassley's comments Thursday come the day after two Democrats on the committee publicly pressed for the release of the panel's closed-door interview transcripts to special counsel Robert Mueller. Even as partisan disputes roil the House's Russia investigation, Grassley's alignment with Democrats on releasing the transcripts signals that the Senate — for now, at least — remains in a more collaborative mode. 

The committee is finished with work related to the June 2016 Trump Tower meeting, attended by President Donald Trump's eldest son and his son-in-law Jared Kushner as well as campaign chairman Paul Manafort, Grassley said. "So, now it’s time to start releasing the transcripts of all witness interviews we have done related to that meeting. Let’s get them out there for everyone to see." 

In addition to Trump Jr., who sat for an interview in September, the committee also has received written responses from Natalia Veselnitskaya, the Kremlin-connected Russian lawyer who said the Trump team pressed her for negative information about Hillary Clinton during the 2016 meeting.

Well this should prove to be some interesting reading, assuming of course all the juicy parts have not be redacted.

Apparently the committee has still not managed to get Jared Kushner locked down for an interview, which is too bad because somehow I think he would crack the minute somebody turned off the air conditioning.

    Kushner and the Trump brothers are all weasels.

    Ivanka is all beauty and no brains. I think she was taught that looks are all that matter. She also learned how to spend her Grand-daddy's money, just like her 239 lb. racist father.

      That obese fucking racist is closer to 300 lbs. if he is an ounce.
      Does every thing coming out of the WH have to be a lie? Irregardless? And how does a military doctor look in the mirror knowing he is complicit. WTF is this place turning into?
      Tarantino should make the movie. No one else's brain could possibly untwist this nightmare and tell the most fucked up story ever conceived.

    Junior is a squirrelly creep, as homely as his brother and Ivanka before the knife work daddy bought her. Good to hear they will release tape. Junior never sounds smart. We'll see how far he falls.

    OT: Casey Affleck, previously sued for sexual harassment, drops out of presenting at the Oscars
    Affleck was sued in 2010 for sexual harassment by two crew members on the set of I’m Still Here. Lawsuits were settled out of court.

    Jason Jones honors Todd Palin. Jones plays a jerk on TV, it may be taken from his real life persona. Shailey Tripp broke her silence before it was popular. Jones and Bee completely shun her, as happens to many victims of harassers and abusers.

    More victims shunned by press and perpetrators.

    Hundreds of TV viewers wrote hostile comments about Anastasia, some wanting to “knock her teeth out” and “strangle her.”
    "“I do not think that the hate-thirsty TV hosts should be allowed to traumatize the psyches of children,” Anastasia told The Daily Beast in an exclusive interview."
    "In Russia, feminism is considered a Western sin, and feminists often are treated as extremists. “Feminism is when women reject men helping them with a coat,” "

    Mueller Wasn’t Interested in Bannon Until ‘Fire and Fury,’ Source Says

    Donald Trump’s ex-campaign chairman and White House strategist painted a bullseye on himself after he blabbed to Michael Wolff about the Russia probe.

      "wretched" ... that's the word. Encapsulates his nature perfectly.

      Your comment 1:40 PM is certainly singing to the choir on this thread, but I find it lacks the ability to move the conversation forward in a more positive direction. My only hope is that we keep up the energy to Election Day and get the turnout we need to start taking back our government.

    Junior is a chip off the old block. He’s just as glib and entitled as his father.

    If I had one wish, it would be seeing Trump and his spawn in jail, sharing a cell.
