Trump Jr. getting $100k to speak at UNT

President Trump’s eldest son will receive $100,000 later this year to speak at the University of North Texas for its Kuehne Speaker Series, the university’s student newspaper reports.

The North Texas Daily reported on Thursday that Donald Trump Jr. will receive $100,000 for a 30-minute lecture followed by a Q&A session and a VIP photo opportunity. Trump Jr. will be given the questions to the session ahead of time, according to the paper.

The contract signed by Trump Jr. also provides for up to $5,000 in lodging and transportation costs. According to the newspaper, Trump Jr. is scheduled to speak on Oct. 24 at nearby AT&T Stadium, home of the Dallas Cowboys football team.

The report comes as Texas continues to recover from the damage caused by Hurricane Harvey.

{mosads}Trump Jr. is currently at the center of special counsel Robert Mueller’s federal investigation into possible collusion between President Trump’s campaign and Russia after news broke in July that Trump Jr. and former Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort had met with a Kremlin-linked attorney to discuss incriminating information about Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton.

One of those emails stated that the information was “part of Russia and its government’s support for Mr. Trump.”

“If it’s what you say I love it especially later in the summer,” Trump Jr. replied.

The president has frequently defended his son in the wake of the investigation, and Trump Jr. has stated that “nothing” arose from the 20-minute meeting held in Trump Tower last year.
