The Duran’s Alex Christoforou and Editor-in-Chief Alexander Mercouris discuss new evidence obtained by Senate investigators that shows that Donald Trump Jr. did not speak with his father from a blocked telephone number days ahead of the 15 minute 2016 Trump Tower meeting, as first reported by fake news CNN.
This latest revelation embarrasses ‘Russia did it’ tool Adam Schiff (D-CA) and clearly contradicts Democratic conspiracy theories related to Trump-Russia collusion.
According to CNN, records provided to the Senate Intelligence Committee show the calls were between Trump Jr. and two of his business associates, the sources said, and appear to contradict Democrats’ long-held suspicions that the blocked number was from then-candidate Donald Trump.

Trump Jr. Phone Records Make A Fool Of ‘Trump Deranged’ Senator Adam Schiff by The Duran
The Duran Quick Take: Episode 73. The Duran’s Alex Christoforou and Editor-in-Chief Alexander Mercouris discuss new evidence obtained by Senate investigators that shows that Donald Trump Jr. did not speak with his father from a blocked telephone number days ahead of the 15 minute 2016 Trump Tower meeting, as first reported by fake news CNN.
Via Zerohedge…
Democrats led by Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) have pointed to the blocked-number calls as evidence that President Trump himself had knowledge that his son, son-in-law Jared Kushner and Paul Manafort met with a Russian attorney who said she had dirt on Hillary Clinton.
According to Schiff, “We wanted to get the phone records to determine, was Donald Trump talking to his son about this meeting,” he told CNN last November. “It’s an obvious investigative step, but one the Republicans were unwilling to take because they were afraid of where the evidence might lead.”
California Senator Dianne Feinstein (D) also pointed to the blocked calls in a Democratic report last year detailing the Senate Judiciary Committee’s investigation of the Trump Tower meeting. “We also do not know who they told about this meeting, including whether they ever discussed it with Mr. Trump,” wrote Feinstein – who noted that Trump Jr. placed three calls to the blocked numbers.
Schiff’s report, however, states that the first call on June 6 was incoming, while CNN reports that the records provided to Congress do not indicate whether the blocked calls were incoming or outgoing.
Democrats have long suggested that Trump Jr. lied to Congress and that President Trump has lied about whether he knew about the Trump Tower meeting before it happened. Trump claims he learned about it when the press began covering it in 2017, over a year after it took place.
Donald J. Trump on Twitter: “Just out: The big deal, very mysterious Don jr telephone calls, after the innocent Trump Tower meeting, that the media & Dems said were made to his father (me), were just conclusively found NOT to be made to me. They were made to friends & business associates of Don. Really sad! / Twitter”

The Russian attorney at the Trump Tower meeting, Natalia Veselnitskaya, met with Fusion GPS co-founder Glenn Simpson hours before she met with Trump Jr. Also in attendance was Russian-American lobbyist Rinat Akhmetshin.
Hillary Clinton’s campaign paid Fusion GPS to produce the “Steele dossier” used by the FBI to justify spying on the Trump campaign – and later leaked to the public to smear the President. Both Veselnitskaya and Akhmetshin were working with Fusion GPS, however they claim the Trump Tower meeting was unrelated to their work with the opposition research firm.
Also working with Fusion GPS was Nellie Ohr, the wife of the former #4 official at the DOJ, Bruce Ohr.
Donald J. Trump on Twitter: “Nellie Ohr, the wife of DOJ official Bruce Ohr, was long ago investigating for pay (GPS Fusion) members of my family, feeding it to her husband who was then giving it to the FBI, even though it was created by ousted & discredited Christopher Steele. Illegal! WITCH HUNT / Twitter”

The Daily Caller‘s Chuck Ross notes the irony in CNN breaking the news regarding the blocked calls, given their sloppy and embarrassing reporting surrounding the matter:
Ironically given CNN’s role in breaking the new story, the network has been behind other reporting about Trump Jr. and his Trump Tower conversations that have turned out to be false.
CNN reported in July 2018 former Trump attorney Michael Cohen was involved in a conversation in which Trump Jr. told his father that the meeting with Russians was going to take place. But on Aug. 22, 2018, Cohen adviser Lanny Davis acknowledged he was a source for the CNN article and that he was mistaken. He said Cohen did not know whether Trump Jr. told Trump about the meeting.
CNN also retracted a story Dec. 8, 2017, that falsely claimed Trump Jr. had received an email Sept. 4, 2016, that included a link to a WikiLeaks emails that had yet to be made public. It turned out the email was actually dated Sept. 14, 2016, a day after WikiLeaks had posted the emails. A person who Trump Jr. did not know sent him the email with a link to information that had already been made public. –Daily Caller

And? Even if he called his father after the set up meeting, what does that prove? There is no proof what they talked about and second its not illegal to call his father. Third, why can hillary claim all the collusion and everything she did was op research but even if he met with the russians, they contacted him that they had dirt on hillary, so isnt that op research? She actually hired russians to plant dirt on trump and no one gives a damn about that
Clearly, schiff is an Israeli asset and gets his orders from aipac. Russia-gate is a desperate attempt to cover up Israet-gate the buying and blackmailing of the congress and judicial system. Russia-gate began shortly after the uncovering of the Wasserman-Schultz spy scandal which Rosentein refuses to further investigate.
Mr. Mercouris and The Duran, malware assumes form of abstract of the book, presumes to bypass the actual shift requirements for nations from Genisis offline system into wealth producing systems, this as to have a straight shot into the heavens in a deficiting application- To consume and devour a dominion forever- The Creational Realm.
