When you looked at her, its like reporter whoa. Like an electrical shock. This is the cbs evening news. Mason this is our western edition. Good evening, im anthony mason. There was a bigger crowd than we knew at that now Infamous Trump tower meeting involving donald trump, jr. The Associated Press says it also included a russianamerican lobbying to have u. S. Sanctions against the kremlin lifted. A man thought to have ties to russian intelligence. Thats in addition to the president s soninlaw Jared Kushner, Trump Campaign chairman Paul Manafort, and the russian lawyer who reportedly was offering dirt on hillary clinton. The publicist who arranged the meeting, rob goldstone, has now told the a. P. He was there, too. Major garrett is at the white house. Reporter rinat akmetshin, seen here in this russian news report, was born in the former soviet union and served in its military. He has suspected ties to russian intelligence. Akmetshin, now a u. S. Citizen, lobbies to lift antirussian sanctions. He was unavailable for comment today at his washington, d. C. Residence. Akmetshin has worked with the russian lawyer natalia veselnitskaya, who secured the meeting with donald trump, jr. Under the pretense of providing damaging information about hillary clinton. Onmetshins presence raises more d estions about who attended the meeting, and undercuts trump, r. s explanation earlier this week. So as far as you know, as far as this incident is concerned, this is all of it . This is everything. This is everything. Reporter cbs news has fedrned President Trump was p,iefed about the trump, jr. Meeting three days before it was disclosed in the new york times, though it seems he was not aware there were more people in the room than initially reported. It was a meeting that went pery, very quickly, very fast. Two other people in the room, they i guess one left almost thmediately and the other one was not really focused on the meeting. Reporter mr. Trump is referring to Campaign Manager Paul Manafort and mr. Trumps noninlaw Jared Kushner now a senior white house advisor. Cbs news has confirmed that he has revised his white house twcurity clearance application twice. The last revision was the russian lawyer, though kushners attorneys say that disclosure was not legally required and that kushner was not introduced to others in the meeting. Jeffrey mankoff is a russian specialist with the center for strategic and international studies. I think going into meetings with people who have kremlin ties on the part of anybody whos in National Politics without thoroughly vetting who they are, what theyre doing, is politically, and possibly legally, quite dangerous. Being reached out to by representatives of the russian government or Intelligence Services should certainly spark red flags and prompt a call to the f. B. I. Reporter cbs news has also confirmed President Trump has hired yet another attorney to deal with russia related matters. Scs name is ty cobb, a descendent of the famous baseball legend. Unlike other attorneys hired by the president , cobb will work inside the white house to mmunsee the legal and Communications Strategy in this matter. Anthony .

Caputo, who was on the Trump Campaign from november 2015 to june 2016, had lived in russia in the 1990s, working for the u. S. Government. He returned to the u. S. In 2000 and worked as a Public Relations advisor to a subsidiary of the stateowned russian conglomerate gazprom. He told the buffalo news, last year, im not proud of the work today, but at the time, putin wasnt such a bad guy. I intentionally stayed out of the hair of the white house and the administration, especially since my name was brought up in the context of the russia investigation. Nobody in the administration or the white house needs my telephone number on their call list, needs me on their visitor logs or needs emails from me. Reporter hes a protege of one of mr. Trumps longest advisors, roger stone, whose appearance before the House Committee later this month was postponed so members have more time to prepare. For his part, stone says hes had no contact with russian officials, but he told our jeff pegues he was in touch with russian hacker guccfier 2. 0 and with wikileaks during the campaign.

R russia, russia, russia. reporter gary riggs who says hes 200 satisfied with the president s performance, believes reporters are getting in the way. Hes getting a lot done behind the scenes, but the media overshadowing on the other side makes it twice as hard. Reporter should we report what he tweets . You know, i think you neobably should, but it shouldnt be the main line. We need to get behind this president and quit majoring in minor things, in my opinion, and ht him do the job he was elected to do. Reporter speaking of elections, his supporters here believe republican control of washington should produce big results, but Matt Schalburg is concerned that congress is not lping. They have a prime edportunity, something theyve wanted for years. R reporter and would you as a voter be upset with them if they dont do what they said they were going to do . Absolutely. Yes.
