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.

I’ve never been comfortable with Kushner/Ivanka. They haven’t given up their NYC elitist friends with really bad values.
Sorry ... I don’t know what felix sader is.
A democrat IT specialist?
I just read on Twitter that Mark Levin is saying that Kushner’s lawyers gave the documents to the FBI for clearance and they were leaked.
Jared had to submitted contacts/meetings list and emails for the ongoing investigations and his security clearance, leaking FBI would be best bet.
I believe so, or at least working for them. I am searching for the article.
Why would he want it to get publicity?
Let's not forget that Kushner recently filed an amended security clearance disclosure form that for the first time identified and included the meeting in question. IMHO the form was leaked first by an enemy of Trump, then the email was leaked to show the meeting was a nothing burger by a friend of Trump (maybe Kushner)...
Just Kidding
Yes. I heard Levin say “You heard it here first. It was the FBI that leaked the emails. Not his son-in-law.”
Felix sater is a hall of fame snitch who has worked with Jr...an asset for Cia..CI for loretta lynch..and currently snitching on international money laundering.
A real piece of work. Tried to buy osama bin Laden’s stinger missiles
That jives with what I heard....which points to the FBI leaking ? Hmmm....
I just think it was so stupid to even talk to the Russian attorney before checking her back-ground, her associations (dems and Obama). This was a setup for down the road to add to the Russian collusion rant. Paul Manafort of all people should have done his due diligence.
John Kasich (Douche-OH)
“Roger stone is a strange guy.”
You aren’t kidding. Netflix has a documentary about Stone — “Get Me Roger Stone”. Weird. Weird. Weird. But smart.
Damn you, Jimmy Kimmel !
Politico says manafort claims he didnt read entire email chain. Jk and manafort are throwing Jr under the bus..maybe because he doesnt work for the govt.
He has some reason to try to blame kushner. Just not sure of motive. Maybe he is good buds with Jr.
What good is releasing said email chain until you have proof Goldstone and Natasha the lawyer are paid actors by the left?
Secondly it’s not good news for us (he never should have taken a meeting based on an email that is clearly warrant bait), so wait until the best time to release it or you are forced to.
I agree completely. The people around Don, Jr. should have caught this for him. However, at that level, you need to have good political acumen but more importantly not trust anyone outside of your immediate circle.
