No, that’s part of the deal. The five topics are secret.

So much for the idea spouted by some that Richard Burr might be a hero.

And it’s going to be a “private meeting” since Don-Don has inherited Daddy’s wussy genes.

Hope the House Dems can subpoena this greasy motherfucker. There aren’t going to be any deals there to pamper his rarified ass.

This is simply another scam to let power run amok. Anyone think it would be otherwise? If so, on what grounds?

Why did Burr (of all people) ask Don the Con jr. to appear before his committee? I don’t get it!

Will a transcript be provided to the public soon after the private party?

So the Republicans can say “He testified before our committee and answered our questions. See? Nothing there.”

Perhaps a kabuki like series of encomiums to Don Jr. asserting what a stout fellow he is. They’ll try to exonerate him.

Remember the chair is Sen Burr (R-Mole).

Trump Jr. will speak to the committee for two-four hours in mid-June.

That’s a LOT of time for Jr. to study up and get his story straight…I suspect he’ll still completely blow it.

The GOP have once again proven how monumentally stupid they are.

Li’l Lindsey and the rest of these miscreants are screaming about how they are going to “investigate the investigators” - in other words, get revenge on anyone who had anything to do with the Mueller report, which is strange, since I remember Trump and the GOP screaming from the rooftops that the report, like, TOTALLY exonerated Fat Ass. And they also want to retry Hillary for crimes of witchcraft.

Well, guess what, you brain-dead assholes? Now every witness is entitled to use the same excuse the Trump spawn is using. Every witness can say they have the same right to dictate what can and cannot be asked or whether the hearing can be public or private and whether they will ever have to testify again or not.

Actually, I think the outcry about this is going to ear-splitting. I don’t think Don-Don is going to end up getting the dream hearing he thinks he is going to get.

There is nothing wrong with this deal per se. Eight hours should be more than enough, and 5 topics – properly selected, should also be sufficient.

The problem isn’t the terms of the deal. Its that by giving Jr this deal you’re giving him the opportunity to claim that further requests from testimony are mere ‘harassment’.

… The scope has been limited to five topics, according to the Hill. …

  1. Who’s the best POTUS ever?
  2. Trump-Russia: A hoax, a witch hunt or both?
  3. Democrats: They’re not really people are they?
  4. Rule of Law: It’s for loser’s, right?
  5. Hair Gel: Any thoughts, recommendations?

While the committees Democrats will ask direct questions of him the GOP will be mostly interested in talking about the many nearly extinct animals he’s killed for trophy and learning who does his Taxidermy and his greasy hair. :leopard: :tiger2: :water_buffalo: :ram: :chicken: :rabbit:
