port, the campaign boss, my brother-in-law and me. this is clear evidence that the highest level members of the trump campaign were willing to sit with individuals who had been billed, at the very least, as representing the russian government in order to get damaging information about hillary clinton. it suggests on its face a willingness to collude with russia, a foreign adversary of the u.s. whether that collusion happened or not, we do not know. trump jr. denies it. we have a lot of big questions now about what any of this means, and our coverage kicks off with our senior white house correspondent jeff zelany. jeff, donald trump jr. not giving any interviews. he s only willing to talk on his father s favorite channel. is there anything from the white house attempting to explain any of this e-mail chain? reporter: the biggest voice at the white house, the president himself has been unusually silent about this on social media and otherwise. his aides and lawyers, we are
me know when you re free to talk with the singer about this hillary info. more back and forth between the two occurs, a day later goldstone writes, the singer asked that i schedule a meeting with you, the russian government attorney who is flying over from moscow for this thursday. i believe you re aware of the meeting, wondered if 3:00 p.m. on thursday works for you. i assume it would be at your office. about an hour later trump junior responds, how about 3:00 at our offices. goldstone responds, i will send the names of the two people meeting with you for security later today. great, it will likely be paul manafort, campaign boss, my brother-in-law and me. the next morning, in a series of e-mails, goldstone writes, would it be possible to move the meeting to 4:00 p.m., as the russian attorney is in court
paul manafort, campaign boss, my brother-in-law and me. 725 fifth avenue, 25th floor. gives the address. this is significant because initially the reporting had been perhaps manafort and kushner had dropped in, been walking by and dropped in. clearly donald trump jr. had indication he wanted them to be at this meeting. so then on june 8th, goldstone says hey, would it be possible to move tomorrow s meeting to 4:00 p.m. as the russian attorney is in court until 3:00 p.m. the russian attorney. he says yes, i can do that unless they want to do today. they can t do it today as she hasn t landed yet from moscow. 4:00 p.m. is great tomorrow. june 8th, look what donald trump jr. does. he forwards this e-mail to jared kushner and paul manafort. meeting got moved to 4:00 tomorrow. my office. the plausible deniaiability gone. lost track of whether it s saturday or sunday of donald trump jr. saying didn t know who i was meeting with or for what.
rumors have been swirling for months he might team up his new campaign boss, the head of breitbart, to launch some sort of media organization. and we may have gotten a preview this week on trump s facebook page. he streamed a program before and after the debate that looked a lot like a tv news show with a lot of love for trump. false stories about mr. trump received 23 times more coverage than the real information that came out about hillary clinton. they thought that he was on his game tonight. what the media is portraying is not him. now we see the corruption, the fraud that is going on and the democratic process. he killed it. he nailed every question. i thought tonight was fantastic. i think the best moment when donald trump was making a case for improving the economy for people. donald trump s performance was one of best i ve seen at a presidential debate and i ve been at many.
