小特朗普的未婚夫金伯利·吉尔福伊尔，也会见了委员会两次。消息人士称，第二次采访有时是争论，部分集中在特朗普2021年1月6日“拯救美国”集会的筹款活动上。
消息人士称，小特朗普的短信是特朗普前幕僚长马克·梅多斯(Mark Meadows)交给委员会的短信之一。
“他必须尽快谴责(暴乱)，”据该小组副主席、怀俄明州共和党众议员利兹·切尼(Liz Cheney)称，小特朗普在一条短信中告诉梅多斯，他大量引用了发送给梅多斯等人的短信。
“我正在努力，”梅多斯回答道。“我同意。”
“我们需要一个椭圆形办公室的地址，”小特朗普在后续消息中说。“他现在已经领先了。它已经走得太远，失去了控制。”
Donald Trump Jr. meets with Jan. 6 committee
Donald Trump Jr., former President Donald Trump's eldest son, appeared before the Jan. 6 select committee on Tuesday for a voluntary interview, multiple sources familiar with his appearance confirmed to ABC News.
ABC News first reported last month that Trump Jr. wasexpected to appear before the committee, as it wraps up its investigatory phase and prepares for at least eight public hearings next month.
The committee declined to comment.
The president's son was the latest member of the Trump family to meet with the committee after Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner, both of whom served as senior White House advisers to former President Donald Trump, were also interviewed in recent weeks.
Kimberly Guilfoyle, Trump Jr.'s fiance,has also met with the committeetwice. Sources said the second interview was at times contentions and focused in part on the fundraising efforts around Trump's "Save America" rally on Jan. 6, 2021.
Trump Jr.'s text messages are among those that former Trump chief of staff Mark Meadows turned over to the committee, sources have said.
"He's got to condemn [the riot] ASAP," Trump Jr. told Meadows in a text message, according to Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., the vice chair of the panel who quoted extensively from text messages sent to Meadows, among others.
"I'm pushing it hard," Meadows replied. "I agree."
"We need an Oval Office address," Trump Jr. said in a follow-up message. "He has to lead now. It has gone too far and gotten out of hand."
