Oregon Senator Wants Kushner to Testify on Russia Meetings

Jared Kushner, President Donald Trump's senior adviser, should testify before the Senate Intelligence Committee in an open session about meetings with Russians, according to Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore.

"It is imperative that the public hear Jared Kushner testify in an open session . . . under oath, and support his claims with full transparency in the form of emails, documents, and financial records," Wyden said Monday in a tweet.

Kushner issued an 11-page statement Monday morning with his first public detailing of four meetings with Russians.

However, Wyden said in the tweet Kushner's statement is "incomplete, at best."

"More broadly, Kushner has repeatedly concealed information about his personal finances and meetings with foreign officials. There should be no presumption that he is telling the whole truth today," Wyden said in the tweeted statement.
