Ex-Mercenary CEO Erik Prince Admits To Trump Tower Meet With Donald Jr. And Saudi Emissary

He said the campaign huddle focused on “Iran policy,” and suggested his congressional hearing transcript when he failed to mention it was inaccurate.

The previous session of congress was historically bad. The level of complicity and the brazen arrogance of suppressing the truth and the resulting obfuscation has stained the GOP for a while in my opinion.

The GOP has zero credibility after their blatantly complicit actions during the investigations. They intentionally covered up evidence and obstructed justice. Why they aren't being held accountable undermines the integrity of the entire legal system in this country. Manafort gets 4 years after lying to grand juries multiple times, evading millions in taxes, obstructing justice, and covering up multiple felonies. Meanwhile in Oregon a Jamaican musician gets busted for possessing weed (his own stash which he bought legally) gets 8 years in prison. That's just plain fucked up.

Note sure.  I would think the reporter, asking Prince, saw the public testimony transcript.  Perhaps Prince admitted to the meeting in a closed/confidential meeting but even in that case, it seems he lied in the public one.  And how could it be left out of transcript - he not only said no to the question if he was involved in the campaign, he qualified his answer with a colorful comment about only doing mailings and installing yard signs. It makes no sense that he admitted to it, but just left out of the transcript, and then reinforced his answer, about not being involved with the campaign, by adding the smart-alec comment about yard signs.

We should give Prince the benefit of the doubt.  He’s rich, connected, his sister is doing a bang up job the dept of Ed, and he probably had convinced Trump at one time or another to hand him a huge contract as part of privatizing our overseas military conflicts,... no corruption collusion!

Transcripts don't "leave stuff out". Undoubtedly these would have been done by a licensed court reporter Mr, and before they become official the court reporter will sign a notarized certification that the transcript is accurate and valid.
