Donald Trump Jr. is being called before the Senate Judiciary Committee:
The heads of the Senate judiciary committee are writing a letter to Donald Trump Jr. Thursday requesting that he testify before the committee, Chairman Chuck Grassley told CNN.
Grassley, R-Iowa, previewed his intentions Wednesday when he told reporters that he wanted former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort to testify before the committee as early as next week, following revelations related to Trump Jr.'s email exchange with a Russian lawyer regarding potentially damaging information against Hillary Clinton.
A few questions: Will the White House try to get Junior—who is not a White House employee—out of this? Will Grassley be willing to subpoena Junior if he won’t go voluntarily? And, of course, if he testifies, is Junior sharp enough to avoid inflicting any further damage on himself?
