Senate Judiciary to meet with Trump Jr. on Thursday
The meeting, held at Trump Tower in June of 2016, touches on one of the questions at the heart of the federal investigation into Moscow’s election meddling: whether any Trump associates colluded with Russian officials or representatives.
The administration’s conflicting explanations of the meeting have stoked the interest of federal investigators, who are reportedly keenly interested in the president’s role in drafting the White House’s initial statement about it.
According to emails released by Trump Jr. in July, an intermediary offered to set up a meeting between Trump Jr. and a “Russian government lawyer” offering information that “would incriminate Hillary and her dealings with Russia and would be very useful to your father."
“This is obviously very high level and sensitive information but is part of Russia and its government's support for Mr. Trump,” the intermediary wrote.
“If it what’s you say I love it especially later in the summer,” Trump Jr. responded.

It won't be under oath, but lying to Senate Investigators is still a no no.
