Investigators, robert goldstone? interesting? >> of particular interest. we know a lot about that meeting. >> one little voice to weigh on this exactly he said/she said? >> we know in that room, have acknowledgement from trump junior they went in believing there might be dirt on the clinton campaign and that he talked about russian adoptions of course related to the sanctions the u.s. issued against russia. it is very interesting, i think to have more voices telling us what happened in that room...
