With Blockbuster NYT report ("Trump Jr. and Other Aides Met With Gulf Emissary Offering Help to Win Election")...

1. Meeting was arranged and attended by Erik Prince.

2. Compare this to what Prince told Congress and looks a lot like perjury.

Prince's testimony:

Prior tweet was Prince testimony about his contacts with Trump campaign in answer to questions by @TomRooney.

Here's Prince's testimony about contact with Don Jr in answer to questions by @RepSwalwell:

Recall it looks like Erik Prince also lied to Congress in testifying that post-election Seychelles meeting with Russian was not pre-planned.

Mr Nader—who set up meeting—may have ample proof of pre-planning, based on reporting by @PierreTABC @meekwire:

Nader is key witness for two events:

1 Trump Tower meeting with Erik Prince-Gulf Emissary-Don Jr to help campaign win election
2 Seychelles meeting with Prince potentially setting up Trump "back channel" with Russia

Nader is cooperating with Mueller:

Here's the link to NYT piece that broke the story at the start of this thread:

Great reporting once again by @MarkMazzettiNYT @ronenbergman @ddknyt (Mazzetti, Kirkpatrick and @adamgoldmanNYT also broke story of Nader cooperating with Mueller)
