Dear Palmer Report readers, we all understand the difficult era we're heading into. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens.

Donald Trump Jr finally testified before a Congressional committee today about his role in meeting with the Russian government during the election to try to obtain damaging information about Hillary Clinton. He also released a prepared summary of his testimony. Although Congressman Adam Schiff is the ranking member of a different committee and wasn’t present during the testimony, he was able to quickly catch Junior changing his story in his statement, in a manner which may help incriminate Donald Trump.

Here’s the key portion of the statement which Adam Schiff posted to his own social media pages today: “The new statement is significant both in what is included, and what is excluded, when compared to earlier explanations. Although the new statement appears to track almost every line of Trump Jr’s prior comments on Twitter, this statement contains a notable omission, in that it no longer mentions that President Trump ‘knew nothing of the meetings or these events,’ raising questions about whether then-candidate Trump was in fact knowledgeable about the meeting in advance, and whether it formed the basis of his contemporaneous public promise of derogatory information about Secretary Clinton.” (link)

Schiff is referring to the fact that just before the meeting between Donald Trump Jr and Russia, Donald Trump publicly claimed that he was days away from holding an event in which he would revealing damaging information about Hillary Clinton. After the meeting, Trump never did hold any such event or reveal any such information. This has given the strong impression that Trump was aware in advance that his son was planning to meet with Russia to try to get dirt on Clinton.

Now Donald Trump Jr is changing his story by no longer asserting that his father didn’t know about the meeting. As Schiff has pointed out, this further suggests that Donald Trump knew what was going on all along, which would be proof that he was personally guilty of election collusion with Russia.
