Donald Trump Jr. is reportedly very worried that he may be the next to be indicted in the Mueller probe.
On Thursday, one-time Trump fixer Michael Cohen pleaded guilty to lying to Congress and provided details about Donald J. Trump‘s involvement in a proposed Trump Tower Moscow deal.
Cohen’s plea deal also seemingly has the president’s son, Don Jr., worried he might be next to face charges.
Vanity Fair reported Thursday night:
Cohen’s plea also re-ignited fears that the president’s son, Don Jr., will be next to be indicted. “Don’s been telling people he’s very worried after today,” a source said. (Don Jr.’s attorney did not immediately respond to a request for comment.) Mueller now appears to be driving the West Wing agenda, with the principals in a reactive crouch; there’s a sense of loss of control. “It’s an untethered situation,” a person close to the president said.
In a separate report, Yahoo also reported on Thursday that Mueller is not only eyeing Don Jr. for his involvement in the Trump Tower Moscow deal — which never came to fruition — but also White House advisor and First Daughter Ivanka Trump.
There are also reports that the Trump Tower Moscow deal would have included a $50 million penthouse gifted to Russian President Vladimir Putin. It is unclear if President Donald Trump, or his kids, knew about the planned gift.
