Donald Trump Jr. pushed back at the media Tuesday, releasing a series of emails from last summer with an acquaintance who claimed to have damaging information about Hillary Clinton from the Russia government and to which the president’s son responded, “I love it!”

Trump Jr. tweeted out what he said was the full correspondence shortly after the New York Times published the text of the emails with U.K.-based music promoter and tabloid reporter Rob Goldstone.

The younger Trump posted the emails to Twitter in an effort to be “totally transparent,” as he wrote.

Per the email, the documents “would incriminate Hillary and her dealings with Russia and would be very useful to your father.”

Music promoter and tabloid reporter Rob Goldstone, who helped to broker the deal according to the Times report and is a part of the email chain posted by Trump, said that the crown prosecutor of Russia “met with his father.” He also promised they would provide the Trump campaign with the documents.

“This is obviously very high level and sensitive information but is part of Russia and its government’s support for Mr. Trump,” the message by Goldstone said.

I can also send this info to your father via Rhona, but it is ultra sensitive so wanted to send to you first.BestRob Goldstone

Thanks Rob I appreciate that. I am on the road at the moment but perhaps I just speak to Emin first. Seems we have some time and if it’s what you say I love it especially later in the summer. Could we do a call first thing next week when I am back?

Best,

Don

Hope all is well

Emin asked that I schedule a meeting with you and The Russian government attorney who is flying over from Moscow for this Thursday.

I believe you are aware of the meeting — and so wondered if 3pm or later on Thursday works for you?I assume it would be at your office.BestRob Goldstone
