Roger Stone reveals initials of who he says is leaker of Donald Trump Jr.'s emails

Longtime Trump confidant Roger Stone claims to know the identity of the leaker who provided to The New York Times emails from Donald Trump Jr. about a meeting last year with a Kremlin-linked lawyer promising dirt that could hurt Hillary Clinton. But he's only giving away this person's initials.

Speaking to a gathering at the Capitol Hill Club for Young Republicans, Stone was asked if he knew anything about the Trump Jr. email controversy, which started taking command of headlines over the weekend after the Times first reported on the meeting.

According to Independent Journal Review, someone from American Bridge, a Democratic opposition research group, repeatedly pressed Stone on his knowledge of the leaker. Stone at first said he did know who it was, but was hesitant to reveal a name.

After saying he would not say who it was, Stone finally conceded, "Their initials are J.K."

IJR notes there are at least three high-level officials in the Trump administration with those initials: Jared Kushner, son-in-law to President Trump; Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly; and Jeremy Katz, a deputy assistant to the president.

Kushner was in attendance at the meeting, which took place in June 2016, along with Trump Jr., former Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort, and the Russian attorney, Natalia Veselnitskaya.

For Gods sake will someone in that town just grow a backbone and say it in words. Why the DC fan dance again?

Until the lies of DC are rooted out by sunshine, we will not regain our freedom in this nation. Like a distressed couple in marriage counseling for cheating, it’s time for a national policy of radical honesty.

The intelligence agencies, FBI, etc. They have all gone so deep into the world of lies that it is time for the disinfectant of sunshine. Everything short of nuclear codes and specific military secrets needs to be declassified.
Nothing being hidden and classified today is more important than the rot the secrecy brings into our nation.

There could be a story playing behind the scenes. I mentioned the seeds and got called crazy by people who clearly dont understand tactics used to get people to flip.

So this time I will just say they can will and do try to create division and paranoia.

Mafia lawyer better be instilling the concept of adverse positions into JR legal thinking

Mama bear of Jr will fight on this one,too

I agree, Alberta. Tiffany has a killer smile and a more rounded face, which makes her a bit more Asian. Very charming in this gray coat and scarf. But all the Trump women are knock-outs, IMHO.

it’s been revealed that it was Jared’s attorneys that discovered the emails and made them public. Motivation unknown...probably a CYA.

It can't be Jared Kushner!

He worked so hard to get TRUMP Elected, no way would he sabatoge his Father in Law!

Has to be someone else, they better find this damn SOB or he'll/she'll cause more HAVOK!

I believe Trump’s team intentionally leaked this because they are trying to lead Mueller’s team to investigate the connection between this staged meeting and a FISA warrant request. I believe Trump’s team has already exhaustively collected evidence for months on Goldstone and the Russian Attorney.

By leaking details such as actual email threads and showing pictures of this attorney with Obama’s ambassador just days later, they are forcing the cards onto the table now.

Something was posted, earlier today, about a female who was responsible getting DJTJr’s emails. I can’t, for the life of me, recall either the title of the posting or the female’s name. There was something mentioned, IIRC, if her name was not known before it should be researched. My recollection, which is clearly faulty, was that this female might have had the JK initials.

Okay..so just looked at one story. Claim is legal team found them and amended form..not the same as leaking to NYT.

Axios has interesting story on this and why it may have played out this way. It may be close to the truth given Jk throwing Jr under the bus

If this is true, wouldn't the "Trump team" simply have had Don Jr. release them initially?

Roger stone is a strange guy. One possibility is that feds have him nailed on something and he has been told to stir the pot as part of his cooperation. It could happen in the way these things go..not sure its likely in this case. Just one tactic that could be use

They need to create division. Dont forget they can pressure using felix sater and the threat that he is now cooperating and judge has ordered records unsealed.

Thanks, but it wasn’t his assistant. It was a woman on the other side. She was, perhaps, an IT specialist, someone who could dig deep for nefarious reasons. I so wish I could remember the details.

Are we talking about John Kerry? His initials are “JK”, he ran a boat, and was a “leaker” to Hanoi and the VC about support he could give them in their war against So. Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia (which he entered on a secret mission at Christmas Time when all the Cambodian Buddhists were celebrating it and were drunk too boot).
