(The New York Times) Donald Trump Jr. and the Republican-controlled Senate Intelligence Committee reached a deal on Tuesday for the presidents eldest son to return for a time-limited private interview with senators in the coming weeks an accord that should cool a heated intraparty standoff. The deal came after an aggressive push by the younger Mr. Trumps allies who accused the Intelligence Committees chairman Senator Richard M. Burr of North Carolina of caving to Democrats by issuing a subpoena for his testimony. They called the effort a political hit job against the White House using the presidents son as fodder. The accusations and accompanying pushback by Mr. Burr to his Republican colleagues amounted to an unusually public spat for a panel that has toiled for nearly two years on a bipartisan investigation into Russias 2016 election interference efforts that has been largely free of partisan politics.
