Trump, Jr. is 40 years old, leads the family's company and he can't remember a meeting.

There is no one within the circle of characters involved with Trump's campaign willing to point a finger at the boss. Why? Because, the Boss or Dear Old Dad, holds the pardon pen.

This is the perfect picture as to why the Emoluments Clause is excellent law. The Trump administration is carrying out some very dangerous agendas. The issues with Israel and Palestine could be carried out in the name of peace and justice or simply because "...they are part of the problem, not the solution...." The current self-righteous actions of the Israeli leadership resulting in deaths, maiming and wounding of unarmed Palestinians; is backed by (Part of the Problem) Jared by his words. He doesn't care about the lives of Palestinians that are part of the problem. Jared can assist in genocide without worry so long as his father-in-law holds the "Pardon Pen."

The power of the "Pardon Pen" is so important to the Trump family and associates that they will not implicate him, regardless of the truth. Given Trump's diet, the Trump family and associates should weigh a heartache of Trump when deciding not to testify against him.

Basically, the Trump bunch are stonewalling the Congress and the Special Investigation into the Russian hacking and sought influence in the 2016 election.

Case in point; Jared's peer in Israel:

Yair Netanyahu, (click here) son of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, posted a controversial image saying "Fuck Turkey" on his Instagram account on Wednesday. This follows a diplomatic row between Israel and Turkey which began Tuesday, when Ankara expelled Israel's ambassador over the number of Palestinians killed during protests in the Gaza border on Monday....

This level of ENTITLEMENT is contagious. If Jared can be pardoned to carry out the will of Israel so Yair can through his father.

What these people don't realize is that there is a World Court that would welcome trials in the act of genocide. Yair Netanyahu doesn't even care Turkey is a member of NATO. Whatever the tension is between Israel and Turkey needs to end. With the attitude alone by Yair it brings a decision by the USA as to whom we have as an ally, Israel or Turkey. With Yair's attitude and words, it seems perfectly obvious that there is to be no alliance except with Israel. So, Turkey is one of those entities that are part of the problem and not the solution.

I am relieved the US Senate Judiciary Committee has found the US House finding is not legitimate in the case of Russian interference in the 2016 elections. Perhaps those on the US House Judiciary Committee are illiterate and have no capacity for anything except simpleton conclusions.

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, (click here) R-Iowa, has released congressional testimony transcripts and other material related to the committee's inquiry into the circumstances surrounding the June 9, 2016, meeting in Trump Tower between Trump campaign officials and a Russian lawyer....

...In addition to Trump Jr., the committee interviewed four other people who attended the Trump Tower meeting in New York — publicist Rob Goldstone, who set up the meeting with the promise of dirt on Clinton; Rinat Akhmetshin, a prominent Russian-American lobbyist; Ike Kaveladze, a business associate of a Moscow-based developer, and a translator.


The committee did not interview Natalia Veselnitskaya, the Russian lawyer at the center of the meeting. But the panel released her written responses to a letter that Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, sent her last year.
The panel was also not able to interview Jared Kushner, Trump's son-in-law, or Paul Manafort, Trump's former campaign manager, even though both attended.
The committee also released one page of notes that Manafort took during the meeting...
...Trump Jr. told the Senate Judiciary Committee that he couldn't remember whether he had discussed the Russia investigation with his father, according to transcripts released Wednesday of his interview with the panel.

Trump Jr. deflected multiple questions during the interview, saying he couldn't recall whether he discussed the Russia probe with his father and whether he spoke with his dad on the day the meeting was arranged.

Asked if he thought it would be a problem to take a meeting billed to him as part of a Russian government effort to aid his father, Trump Jr. said no.

"I didn't think that listening to someone with information relevant to the fitness and character of a presidential candidate would be an issue, no."...
