Senate Judiciary Threatens To Subpoena Trump Jr. To Testify, Cant Be Contacted [View all]

The Senate Judiciary Committee has pre-approved subpoenas to force President Trump’s son Donald Trump Jr. and former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort to testify if they don’t respond by Friday evening to their invitation to appear next week.

Committee Chairman Charles E. Grassley (R-Iowa) said if they do not accept that subpoenas will be issued “almost immediately.”

“We’ve already authorized” the orders, Grassley said, explaining that the committee’s top Democrat, Dianne Feinstein (Calif.), had also signed off on the orders in advance. “She and I don’t have to take any action — it’s already been taken.”

The hearing is scheduled to be held publicly will likely to be a contentious affair after it was found out that the young Trump emailed about meeting with a supposed agent of Russia in order to dig up dirt on Hillary Clinton during the campaign.
