"CNN reported last week that the individual was there on behalf of a Russian family, the Agalarovs, who had asked for the meeting to be set up, according to two sources familiar with the circumstances.

Futerfas says the person, who he declined to name, was a US citizen and said he was not employed by the Russian government. But Futerfas acknowledged he didn't know his entire history. The Agalarovs and their attorney have not publicly explained who the employee was who attended.
Futerfas says during his conversation the Agalarov representative corroborated what has already been reported about the meeting: that in the first couple of minutes there were pleasantries exchanged and then the Russian lawyer discussed the information she allegedly had about Russia donating to the Democratic National Committee and Hillary Clinton before moving on to the topic of adoptions.

Futerfas also confirmed that the $50,000 that the Trump re-election campaign paid in June to his firm was, at least in part, for work he's now doing for Donald Trump Jr."


Still no definite ID of this 8th person but confirms he was an employee of Putin's pals, the Agalarovs

Among those who had voiced concern was Reince Priebus, the chairman of the Republican National Committee, who told Mr. Trump last week that relations between his committee and Mr. Lewandowski had become increasingly strained, and that a change would be welcome, according to three people briefed on the discussion.

6. Preibus is not an employee of the agalarovs.

3. If they are all being so secretive about the identity of the 8th conspirator,

it sure seems likely it is someone whose known presence will be extremely damaging.

4. Exactly.

So, we know it is a man, and we know not working for Russians, and we know the meeting was theoretically about evidence against Hillary, and we know this took place in june of '16 during the campaign.
So, what male during the campaign who is not a Dem. and not a foreigner, would be interested in meeting to get dirt on the leading dem. candidate????

Hint: see above.

7. I think it will be a name we aren't familiar with.
