Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) accused Erik Prince, former head of mercenarycontractor Blackwater, of concealing a second shadowy Trump Tower meeting witha representative
Rep. Adam Schiff accused Erik Prince, former head of mercenary contractor Blackwater, of concealing a second shadowy Trump Tower meeting with a representative of foreign governments during Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign.
Prince, a Trump supporter and brother of Education Secretary Betsy DeVos, told Al Jazeera that he had informed the committee about a meeting involving him, Donald Trump Jr., White House aide Stephen Miller and an emissary representing Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates to discuss “Iran policy” three months before the election.
But Al Jazeera interviewer Mehdi Hasan said transcripts of Prince’s committee testimony revealed he hadn’t mentioned the meeting and insisted he played no role in Trump’s campaign. Prince suggested the transcripts were “wrong.” Schiff said Prince was asked about any substantive policy conversations he might have had and he didn’t mention the Trump Tower huddle, according to the transcript.
