WATCH: CNN’s Tapper Fact Checks Trump Tower Meeting, Omits Key Detail

CNN’s Jake Tapper fact-checked a recent statement from Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani after he claimed that Donald Trump Jr. and other Trump campaign officials did not know that lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya was affiliated with the Russian government when they agreed to a meeting with her in June 2016.

“She didn’t represent the Russian government, she’s a private citizen,” Giuliani said Sunday on “Meet The Press.” “I don’t even know if they knew she was Russian at the time. All they had was her name.”
