we have shannon wu with us, our legal analyst and national security steve holman. i want to not read the full part of the transcript, but tell you something else we learned from it, in this under oath the president's son donald trump jr. says that he walked in on a meeting at trump tower between then-russian ambassador sergey kislyak and the financial adviser at trump tower after the election. the significance here is that the president's son, donald trump jr. had not previously acknowledged witnessing this event and not acknowledging walking in. he said he doesn't remember if he had a conversation or exchange much or spoke to the then russian ambassador, but that he may have shaken his hand. the significance of that to you? >> think the significance of all of this, poppy, is we're continuing to see these lines that lead from the trump team back to russia, and i think these transcripts give us a little bit more texture and a little bit more context in all of that, and you know, from the russian angle as i have written and i think several of my former colleagues hav
