>> reporter: in retrospect i probably would have done things a little differently. >> donald trump jr. told fox news he now realizes his meeting with the russian government lawyer looks bad, but still wishes it had produced the promised damaging information on hillary clinton. >> it was literally a wasted 20 minutes which was a shame. >> reporter: in ants interview with reuters, president trump defended his son, saying "i think many people would have held that meeting." the president also said he only learned of it a couple days ago. >> the june 2016 meeting arranged by music producer, rob goldstone on behalf of a russian pop star, whose father has ties to vladamir putin. in video uncovered by cnn mr. trump can be seen with all three men in las vegas in 2013. an outside white house adviser described revelations as very bad, a category 5 hurricane. today the president remained out of public view for the third consecutive day, and pushed back on twitter, against reports he was enraged by television news stories, on the investigation. but the revelations keep coming. cbs news has learned that u.s. intelligence picked up

officials discussing presidential candidates including mr. trump, as far back as mid 2015. although a source familiar with the intelligence says it was not until spring of 2016, that the conversation pivoted to helping mr. trump's campaign. special counsel robert mueller's investigation as well as those of two congressional committees, are also looking into whether the trump campaign's digital operation, in any way, coordinated with russians to target voters, with fake news stories. that operation was overseen by the president's son-in-law, jared kushner. adam schiff on cbs this morning. >> the russians use variety of methods to influence not only our elections butten europe. if there was a data analytical component to this in which there was some level of coordination that we need to look into. >> senate judiciary committee will call former trump campaign chairman, paul manafort who nd

this is the cbs "overnight news." president trump's son, donald jr. in the cross hairs of investigators looking into kremlin interference in our presidential election. his e-mails showing he was eager to accept russian help to discredit hillary clinton. rocked the white house. the younger mr. trump defended himself on fox news, saying in retrospect i probably would have done things differently. top democrat on the house intelligence committee, adam schiff discussed the matter this morning. >> the next step in terms of this issue is going to be we will want to have all participants in the meeting, any one who helped in organizing it. putting it together testify before the mm

documents. any e-mails. it looks like, listening to, the president's son last night on fox and hearing his ler today that the defense is going to be, yes, we had an intent to collude with russia. we wanted to get the dirt, the russian government had in an effort to help elect donald trump. but we were deeply disappointed in getting it at that meeting. that's not much of a defense. i think, we need to look into whether there was any subsequent efforts, whether indeed we can rely on the representations about what happened at the meeting. because one thing we have seen over just the last several days we can't rely on anything that donald trump jr. has to say about this. because his story kept changing, he had to confront facts coming out. >> let me ask you, a new report that says the house and senate intelligence committees which you are on are looking into whether the trump campaign digital team, guided by jared kushner, helped guide the fake news attacks on h

can you confirm that? what are you looking into? >> well one of the issues i think that we need to explore is -- whether there was any help in terms of -- the -- the fake news, the efforts to push negative news, by the russians, whether there was any coordination in that tefrt to target that. to, to identify, where, where, it would be useful to push stories up. and people's social media feeds. i am not saying that's what took place. but the russians use variety of method to influence not only our elections but in europe. if there was a data, analytical component to this in which there was some level of coordination. that we need to look into. to give you sort of an analogous, piece of, of evidence, here, in those e-mails very significant that don jr. says, hey, it would be most helpful to get this in the late summer. already talking about timing. if there was coordination on the timing of the

negative stories or false stories, by russian social media, trolls, that is something we need to know. but here, you know i think you have quite plainly in the four corners of the e-mail that have now been reap lealeased. authenticity not in question. you have three central campaign people, indeed three of the most important people in the trump campaign who go to the meeting with the full expect taegs of getting help from the russian government. and indeed have sent a signal to the russian government they would welcome it. indeed love it. they have also made a comment about the timing that would be useful. and they have talked ta bout frankly admitted how disapin the they'd were that in this particular meeting they didn't get, didn't get the dirt, help they've wanted from the russians. so, are there issues whether there was a potential conspiracy to violate u.s. election laws? that is certainly very real issue that need to beep investigated. >> the cbs "overnight news" will be right back.

putting it together testify before the committee. obviously want to see any documents. any e-mails. it looks like, listening to, the president's son last night on fox and hearing his ler today that the defense is going to be, yes, we had an intent to collude with russia. we wanted to get the dirt, the russian government had in an effort to help elect donald trump. but we were deeply disappointed in getting it at that meeting. that's not much of a defense. i think, we need to look into whether there was any subsequent efforts, whether indeed we can rely on the representations about what happened at the meeting. because one thing we have seen over just the last several days we can't rely on anything that donald trump jr. has to say about this. because his story kept changing, he had to confront facts coming out. >> let me ask you, a new report that says the house and senate intelligence committees which you are on are looking into whether the trump campaign digital team, guided by jared kushner, helped guide fa

news attacks on hillary clinton. can you confirm that? what are you looking into? >> well one of the issues i think that we need to explore is -- whether there was any help in terms of -- the -- the fake news, the efforts to push negative news, by the russians, whether there was any coordination in that tefrt to target that. to, to identify, where, where, it would be useful to push stories up. and people's social media feeds. i am not saying that's what took place. but the russians use variety of method to influence not only our elections but in europe. if there was a data, analytical component to this in which there was some level of coordination. that we need to look into. to give you sort of an analogous, piece of, of evidence, here, in those e-mails very significant that don jr. says, hey, it would be most helpful to get this in the late summer. already talking about timing. if there was coordination on the

timing of the pushing of either negative stories or false stories, by russian social media, trolls, that is something we need to know. but here, you know i think you have quite plainly in the four corners of the e-mail that have now been released. authenticity not in question. you have three central campaign people, indeed three of the most important people in the trump campaign who go to the meeting with the full expect taegs of getting help from the russian government. and indeed have sent a signal to the russian government they would welcome it. indeed love it. they have also made a comment about the timing that would be useful. and they have talked ta bout frankly admitted how disapin the they'd were that in this particular meeting they didn't get, didn't get the dirt, help they've wanted from the russians. so, are there issues whether there was a potential conspiracy to violate u.s. election laws? that is certainly very real issue that need to beep investigated. >> the cbs "overnight news" will be right back.
