Dem senator argues Trump Jr. should be 'locked up' if he defies subpoena as sources say he's unlikely to comply
Democratic Senator Richard Blumenthal on Thursday said Donald Trump Jr. should be “locked up” if he “defies" the subpoena issued this week by the Senate Intelligence Committee.
“There are no [executive] privileges for Donald Trump Jr. The son of the president doesn’t have any of those privileges," the senator continued. Unlike his sister Ivanka, who is a volunteer adviser to President Trump, Donald Trump Jr. has not left the family business to work in the White House. The Republican-led Senate Intelligence Committee subpoenaed Trump Jr. on Wednesday over testimony he gave about a Trump Tower project proposed for Moscow and his contacts with Russian officials.
“There are a number of responses he gave that are challengeable based on the truth,” he said. “There are a number of areas that need to be scrutinized by the Intelligence Committee. His responses in the Judiciary Committee are certainly one of those areas.”
