On his way into a closed hearing before the Senate Intelligence Committee, Donald Trump Jr. told reporters that he has “nothing to correct” from his previous testimony, per Politico. 

His second appearance, spurred by a subpoena from chairman Richard Burr (R-NC), will center on issues like his previous statements on Trump Tower Moscow. The subpoena came after new comments from Michael Cohen about the project appeared to differ from Trump Jr.’s testimony.

The subpoena incurred the wrath of Republicans who insisted that the “case is closed.”

According to Politico, the Wednesday hearing will take up to four hours and focus on five or six topics agreed to by both Trump Jr. and the committee.

  1. I hope Junior doesn’t change a thing from his last appearance and is then indicted for lying to Congress by way of a criminal referral.

  2. What??? Do ya’ think I got a sign sayin’ “STOOPID” on my back??? These goons got nuthin’ on me, so I’m stickin’ with my original story. Yeah.

  3. Which means he’ll keep lying. Very consistent.

  4. I know this may be OT (not to mention, shallow of me), but I would love to break every Trump thumb that there is in that family. I am so sick and tired of seeing their thumbs!

    He can claim this and then make careful corrections since it’s a closed session.
