Sen. Graham says Trump Jr. should plead the Fifth to Intelligence panel, adding that Trump Jr.’s lawyer would 'have to be an idiot' to let him testify again
By Karoun Demirjian and Karoun Demirjian Congressional reporter focusing on national security Email Bio Follow Mike DeBonis Mike DeBonis Congressional reporter covering the House of Representatives Email Bio Follow May 13 at 8:05 PM The head of the Senate Judiciary Committee encouraged Donald Trump Jr. to invoke his right against self-incrimination and refuse to answer questions from the Senate Intelligence Committee if he complies with the panel’s subpoena for a second closed-door interview.
“He’s already testified like nine hours. At some point, I think there’s other ways to address it,” Cornyn said Monday, suggesting that Trump Jr.’s team submit written answers so the panel can avoid being “even more intrusive than we’ve been.” A person close to Trump Jr. described the Intelligence panel’s request as “completely unreasonable” on Monday, adding “we are not doing a do-over.”
