BREAKING: Senate Intelligence Committee reaches deal with Donald Trump Jr. to appear for an interview, sources say.

The Senate Intelligence Committee has struck a deal with Donald Trump Jr. to appear for an interview next month.

The deal comes after the panel subpoenaed the president’s eldest son to discuss answers Trump Jr. gave the panel’s staff in a 2017 interview. Trump Jr. had backed out of the interview twice, prompting the subpoena, according to people familiar with Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Richard Burr’s remarks to a GOP luncheon last week.

Republican Sen. Richard Burr of North Carolina described the reason for the subpoena to his Republican colleagues last week as he tried to stem criticism for taking action against President Donald Trump’s eldest son.

I doubt it goes down easy.....will it be just another Circus Act?

Wait a damn minute! They “reached a deal”!? For us mere mortals a subpoena isn’t a request to “reach a deal” it’s an order to appear. Will you politicos - all of you - stop treating this damn family like they’re friggin royalty!

Hey libs-save all your tears and accusations when the subpoenas start coming for the Russian hoax. No doubt you’ll be singing a different song. As per usual-you gotta give any republican crap. The man already testified for hours and hours-what changed?

Resign

Does this deal favor an overall search for truth or does it guarantee Trump jr won’t be in a position where his lies are ever exposed?

ooh, more lying.

Wish my daddy could help me get a sweetheart deal if I received a subpoena from the US Senate.

I don't think there should be any deals, a subpoena is a subpoena. But every Democrat should yield their time to former prosecutors on the Committee. Especially KamalaHarris

Not under oath.

Doc_JJK I would show up and plead the fifth like the Democrats do when they are on the hot seat

DONT DO IT

Everything is about making a f’ing deal with this family. If there isn’t any unethical or criminal activity then let it all out there and be done. All this deal making, delaying and bs isn’t the actions of the innocent. Speak up if nothing to hide!

I didn't know you could negotiate a subpoena. Is that available for everyone or just children of criminals?

Looks like Trump Jr. turned down his father's $130,000 check to buy his silence.

CarolGo18658081 This will go nowhere as long as Barr is at the helm.

He can always plead the 5th like all Obama’s officials did..

The trumps need to go. All of them. Sewer rats.

Deal? Deal schmeal. He was subpoenaed, so his ass needs to show up, period.

Why was LindseyGrahamSC here? Why is he even on the front of this? He literally told Trump Jr. Not to comply with the subpoena....😒

DESPITE LindseyGrahamSC INSTRUCTING realDonaldTrump TO OBSTRUCT JUSTICE AND LIE ------------- SEND THIS PIG PACKING VoteOutTheGOPCesspool ResignLindseyGraham

There is only one question that needs to be answered, why did he think he was going to be arrested?

Why should he get a deal? He's a private citizen.

The people need to know what the deal is. There should be no deal, just a subpoena.

Does this mean we all get to negotiate subpoenas now?

The agreement is for Jr to sit quietly while Lindsey Graham does his outraged act.

Believe it when it’s seen.

LIST THE DETAILS AP BECAUSE THEYRE A JOKE. FFS do your job.

I love it, especially later in the summer 😊

Deal for a criminal cover-up

Um... no. There is no 'deal' to be made here. Receiving a subpoena means, 'Come to where we tell you. Be on time. In your finest. Smile and be polite. Be truthful.'

Because that’s what you do when you’re innocent.

How did they find anyone in the Senate with Intelligence? ... Too much?

i thought the deal was SIC subpoenas you and you show up either there or in jail.

i don't know what the big deal is and what the point is. do you really think this p.o.s. is going to tell the truth? he's just like his father. he wouldn't know the truth if it sat on his lying mouth

There shouldn't be any 'deal'. The DA of my city wouldn't 'negotiate' any kind of deal for me to show up if they subpoena me. I show up or I get arrested.

I Bet He Lies

In private. What a joke! Innocent people don’t have to hide behind closed doors. Innocent people don’t plead the fifth.

The deal being that DJT won’t rot in jail for contempt.

The House needs to subpoena him to appear THIS WEEK with no limits on topics or time. It's time for Democrats to stop appeasing those who are actively undermining the Constitutional order.

DonaldJTrumpJr does have a brain after all. LindseyGrahamSC gave him bad advice.

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.
