Donald Trump Jr. said in a series of text messages to then-White House chief of staff Mark Meadows that his father needed to 'condemn' the US Capitol insurrection as it unfolded on January 6.

Washington Donald Trump Jr. said in a series of text messages to then-White House chief of staff Mark Meadows that his father needed to"condemn" the US Capitol insurrection as it unfolded.

The messages from Trump Jr. -- which the House select committee investigating the January 6 riot revealed before voting to hold Meadows in contempt of Congress -- provide a window into the kind of urgent messages that top Trump surrogates and officials traded as the riot unfolded. "'He's got to condemn this sh*t ASAP. The Capitol Police tweet is not enough,'" Trump Jr. wrote in one message to Meadows, according to the committee's vice chairwoman, Republican Rep.

He must want to run for office himself. I am sure he knewwhat his father was inciting.

Right

if only they would have granted the white house request for increased security

WOW CAN SAY A LOT!!!! THX DON JR. YOU SAID IT ALL FOR ME!!!! lmao

I've always wondered where they got this correspondence, but the correspondence or printouts of Epstein's calls, as if not! And there is no journalistic investigation either. As if it didn't happen. Not interested. Nobody.

If we can start reading between Don Jr.'s words, sons may be ready to detach themselves from Dad if they now begin to see the unpleasant writing on the judicial walls for their Dad's years of cheating, exploiting, lying and now agitation violence.

Great post CNN. Great look for Don Jr. keep sharing more positive Trump family news.

Anybody else wonder what the dynamic is that would cause Jr to text Meadows to talk to his dad instead of just texting…his dad?!?

DonJr he’s gotta condemn that shit ASAP❗️❗️❗️😂🤣😂😆

He wanted him to call the fire department after he started the fire

MAN,JAMIE RASKIN DO YR MTF THANG DAWG....BC SOME OF THOSE INDIVIDUALS-WHITE PEOPLE IN GENERAL- DO NOT WANT THIS

I'm shocked 😲 donny jr did that and it means daddy was ignoring his texts so hence MM texts.

What did he text his father directly? Or did he?

Yet Tweeter had blocked Trump already!!!

January6thCmte Subpoena Donald Trump Jr !

And his father, Logan Roy, oops I mean Donald J. Trump did nothing but likely drink a Coke and eat a cheeseburger and some fries... and watch the attempted coup ravage the Capitol.

Why would they be worried about ANTIFA looking bad?

Straight from the mouth of Donny jr.

Who cares

Attempt to provide cover ?

I wonder what he thought the rally leading up to the insurrection that morning was for?

But his father didn't do that, because his father was happy with the whole situation.

He,s in on it too.

Guess who is getting a sock full of coal this Christmas?

'Protest' ... 'unarmed protestors' ... fake news

Great son and dad bonding get someone else to communacate for him lol

That’s your news story? Hahahahahaha trying to stay relevant with your horrible ratings….I mean y’all fired Cuomo the homo and speaking of homos you should also fired don lemon as well with the Smollett case lol

Wow! He has to text someone else to get a hold of his own dad. Shows what great relationship they have.

Almost 900 BILLION for national defense. 900Billion. There has NEVER been an audit of where all the money goes. That is more money than China, Japan, Russia, and all of Europe combined spend on their national defense! Remember: we can’t afford healthcare for all!

Kendall Roy said what?

Junior texted Meadows with a message for Daddy Dearest. Why didn’t Junior text Daddy with his advice? Or is it additional proof Daddy doesn’t listen to Junior?

🧐 ... 👇👇👇 ... ?

They know it was treason. Violence committed on American soil. Facebook and Twitter allowed communication to be used as a domestic terrorists communication tool. Facebook and Twitter are just as complicit. Republicans Still reciting the same motives as Jan 6 Trump insurrectionist

He looked pretty excited and happy in the video they showed of President Trump, Jr and his girlfriend, and Meadows during the coup.

Finally 😳 The truth! Shame Shame Shame 🔔

DJT issued a statement saying he doesn't know anyone named after him 🤣🤣🤣

Don't kid yourselves Junior was just covering his own ass with those texts.

So those people were not tourists after all. They weren’t antifa,they were not blm. They were the president’s crowd sent by him. Cuz from all the white washing we’ve been fed I was starting not to believe something I watched with my eyes on tv.

At what time did that stupid coked-out smile turn into a desperate cry for help?

Why would he text him, weren't they together in the war room watching the tyranny go on.

Ya, that sounds normal.

They bathe in criminal activity, that’s the only lather they know.

All these Trumpy people begged Meadows to get DT to stop the raid? Ever heard of a 'Get out of jail free card'?

MAGA will see this and realize Don Jr is deep state in disguise just like Laura Ingraham is. They’re both against the attack on the Capitol. Mark Meadows exposed them to save his ass.

Plausible deniability.

Good

TrumpCoupAttempt

Let them eat their own…rats jumping from the sinking ship!

Junior has been very quiet tonight on Twitter.

The worst part about this, is that they were in the EXACT same room together, watching the insurrection unfold. Why would he need to text Meadows to begin with

That doesn't sound very white Supremest extremist of him?!

So he was afraid to tell his father himself or was he congratulating him on what he just caused.

Maybe junior has a slightly bigger brain 🧠 TrumpCoupAttempt

Sounds like a betrayer of Trumpism in that moment; like many Republican had a moment of clarity to condemn Trump and the Jan6 Insurrection. Now we are back to our regularly scheduled program of the right wing attempt to destroy American Democracy. They will loose!

Now, do hunter...

The screens were on. They all watched as the rioters made their way in.

What does that tell you when Jr. is the voice of reason?

All this talk, i sure hope it’ll go somewhere. Because history only proves & shown that these kinds of “inquiries” are all for show. Just a distraction from the subjective issues that we need to be focused on. Like how no one is talking about BuildBackBetterAct now.

That tells us the relationship that existed between DonaldJTrumpJr and his father. He didn't have the boldness to confront his father, Trump on important issues. He had to go through someone. Donald doesn't have regards for him and could sacrifice him to achieve his ambition.

It is because of such fake news CNN loses its audience .... Instead of real news - news about the fact that 'someone said something ......'

He should now consider himself disowned, disinherited and discommunicated from the Trumps.

Sorry to hear that no one listened to Roman Roy.

When you realize that Jr may actually have more political savvy than TFG…

We got a rat problem! Leaving the sinking ship!!
