Donald Trump Jr. has agreed to speak with the House Intelligence Committee behind closed doors on Wednesday, December 6th.
Trump Jr.'s June 9, 2016 meeting at Trump Tower with Russian lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya and others is of particular interest to lawmakers who already have collected some firsthand information.
CNN:
Both the House and Senate Intelligence Committees have interviewed several of the participants in the meeting, including on Tuesday when the House panel questioned the Russian translator, Anatoli Samochornov, who also attended the Trump Tower session, sources said.
But Trump Jr.'s appearance will be one of the most anticipated events yet of the investigation, particularly in light of new revelations of correspondence he had with WikiLeaks during the campaign season.

Rep. Mike Conaway, the Republican who is leading the House investigation, said Tuesday night that the committee had interviews with key witnesses scheduled through mid-December -- and he predicted the investigation would continue into next year. He was skeptical it could even conclude by the beginning of the midterm primary season in early 2018.
"No," Conaway said when asked if his panel would issue a report summarizing its findings by year's end. "That would be a surprise."
