BREAKING: AP Source: Senate intelligence committee has subpoenaed Donald Trump Jr. for additional testimony in Russia probe.

WASHINGTON — The Senate intelligence committee has subpoenaed Donald Trump Jr., calling him in to answer questions about his 2017 testimony.

That’s according to a person familiar with the subpoena who discussed it on condition of anonymity. The committee has renewed interest in talking to President Donald Trump’s eldest son after Trump’s former lawyer, Michael Cohen, testified earlier this year. Cohen told a House committee in February that he had briefed Trump Jr. approximately 10 times about a plan to build a Trump Tower in Moscow. Trump Jr. told the Senate Judiciary Committee in 2017 he was only “peripherally aware” of the proposal.

The Senate intelligence committee has been investigating Russian election interference and Trump’s ties to Russia for the last two years.

DonaldJTrumpJr Liars going to lie, JR?

I'm guessing all this DonnyT related chaos is EXACTLY what WeThePeople voted for huh?

Spectacular

He should have his lawyers respond with a 'No thanks, we are done cooperating in this witch hunt.'

DonaldJTrumpJr so you got no witty retort? Seriously, you always seem to have something to say but now you decide to be quiet? Maybe those golden walls are closing in on you. YourGoingToJail

Finally....

cmclymer “Intelligence” committee? I think Don Jr may be the wrong person if you’re looking for intelligence.

Is it legal to subpoena a member of the royal family? This is the United States of America. Not the United States of laws.

Pass!

I would sit their and plead the 5th like they all did in Clinton emails investigations

If Democrats think they can win by just going after trump and doing absolutely nothing as far as legislation for the country.. By all means..

Based on Cohen’s testimony: The committee has renewed interest in talking to President Trump’s eldest son after Trump’s former lawyer, Michael Cohen, testified earlier this year... The one who was suppose to spill all the beans but said on his way into prison he has more to tell!

cmclymer As the walls keep closing in ,I wonder how worried Jr is that Dad is going to let him hang out to dry ? I can see Trump rationalizing one of the kids falling on the family sword for him...

Boy, the Democrats love beating a dead horse. Savior Robert Mueller came up with no collusion and no evidence of obstruction but the Democrats can’t accept it...much like the 2016 election results.

Like he's gonna show. 🙄

Russia probe is over. Get over it AP. Please stop printing any gossip and slander you want and naming 'Source' as the source.

cmclymer Trump is about to start using executive privilege like I used to call dibs on stuff in Jr High.

As a tax payer I want rebate from 2 year Muller investigation if Dems are gonna do it all over again

He’ll defy the subpoena and get away with it. Because the Trump family is above the law apparently. Can you imagine if a Democratic presidency had all this going on?! The Republicans would be blathering on and on about how we’re a nation of laws.

“...Donald Trump was never keen on bequeathing his name to anybody. It was Ivana who wanted to call their newborn Donald junior. “You can't do that!” Trump is quoted as saying in Ivana's memoir, Raising Trump. “What if he's a loser?”

Let's waste MORE money!!

😴

LoL. Like he would put himself in a perjury trap. 🐑

ELINTNews Hmmm....a war with Iran couldn't come at a better time. 🤔

I wouldn't be surprised if they're giving him a list of questions and appropriate replies. I doubt this going to be a legitimate inquiry since it is being led by a Republican Senate committee. McConnell and Graham cannot be trusted to uphold the laws of this land.

He is quoted as being “exasperated” with the summons. I’m exasperated. We are all exasperated. TrumpRussia DonJr Subpoena

After MuellerInvestigation. Lol... TheDemocrats are just looking for something to feed their base with till 2020 election. GOP better wake-up before it is too late. PrisonPlanet RealCandaceO

It may be tactic to dilute the intensity of the case. NoToCorruption SaveDemocracy SaveJournalism

Russia probe is over. All this does is undermine Mueller, you know the man the left has criticised anyone trying to undermine especially Trump.

So we can hear more lying?

PardesSeleh Also Breaking; the American people see exactly who and what the democratic party has become.

😂🤣🤣

Start at the ground and work your way up.

Super tweet storm within seconds.......

PardesSeleh Who cares

PFaragallah1 House of cards awy

Please please invoke “executive privilege” to jR who doesn’t work for the govt

SOON.😄

Fantastic. The entire grifting family should be subpoenaed.

I'm wondering why the subpoena? Was he asked to appear and refused?

Is this the same burr that went running to the WH to snitch about who was being investigated.?

PardesSeleh

MikeBalsamo1 Buh mitch said case closed maines

Lock him up. That's the mantra daddy likes to chant.

But, but, but... Mitch said 'case closed'. Should we not tell him?🤔

Senat GOP, time to man up and defend your country! Show your strength and stop drinking Trump jus.

oliverdarcy More Harassment from the baby killing Democrats

Russia probe? Wasn't that the Mueller report FFS

All Democrats need to yield their time to Kamala Harris.

Case-closed huh?

Oh boy... that imaginary line was just crossed Good luck Dems... not really

Sorry guys. He lacks 'intelligence'. Wrong committee! Lol

When you haven't wasted enough time and money, there is always the Senate Intelligence Committee.

Now this is getting interesting

Lock him up.

Waste of time.

Congress is a clown show. I sincerely hope theres a political backlash to Democrats over reaching on this Russian collusion stuff. Even after the conclusion of the Mueller probe; they're still going.

Don Jr.:

About fricking time

So what did we spend $30m on Mr Mueller's investigation for.

DonaldJTrumpJr is getting himself ready for more perjury. The kernel of corn doesn't fall too far from the turd.

If it's what you say I love it

Well he's an unrepentant liar so that's a problem. OTOH he's also dumb as a box of rocks so asking the same question twice should work.

cmclymer So the GOP members can allow him to say he 'misremembered the event in question the first time' and plea 'boys will be boys, amiright?🤷‍♂️'.

Intelligence when applied to the repub senate or any of the trumps is an oxymoron

Have fun in jail DonaldJTrumpJr

More fodder for the base. Get those credit cards out, people.

What about Senator Feinstein’s driver who worked for her for 20 years as a Chinese spy? Why isn’t she being investigated?

“I love it, especially later in the week.” -America

cmclymer Can't wait to see the spin of a subpoena from a GOP-controlled Senate

Trump and his family will be known as the most investigated US President/First family in history

Now we're talking!!

Smoke screen to take news away from barr contempt vote

Refuse. Enough of this liberal mania. HES GETTING A SECOND TERM.

'Donald Trump on Wednesday asserted executive privilege concerning the full, unredacted report from special counsel Robert Mueller' So much for 'the most transparent administration in history'...

Celeste_pewter Ruh-roh.

Senate Intel Committee subpoenas Donald Trump Jr. in Russia probeTrump Jr. told the Senate in 2017 he was only 'peripherally aware' of a Russia deal with the Agalarovs. Michael Cohen said he briefed Trump Jr. 10 times. 'I love it, especially by the end of the week.' I can't wait to see Donnie Jr. and the rest of the Trump crime family brought to justice. In other words he knows they were working with Russia but too dumb to actually understand how. Countdown begins now until somebody suggests that Burr is a closet Democrat. Oh wait: too late. Already happened.
