I'm reading different headlines but it doesn't make any sense. I'm also reading it was a set up meeting by the DNC? What does everyone know about this?

Just more muh Russian bullshite

DNC set up a meeting between Trump associates and Trump Jr in an attempt to continue the Russia Collusion bullshite story.
Plus, CNN got pissed about Trump Jr slamming them on Twitter so its their fashion of political "payback"
Sad part is, they have already been outed as creating this story out of nothing, yet they are running with it anyways because of ratings

According to Progs and the MSM:
Disaster of biblical proportions.
Real wrath-of-God type stuff!
Fire and brimstone coming down from the skies! Rivers and seas boiling!
Forty years of darkness! Earthquakes, volcanoes!
The dead rising from the grave!Human sacrifice!
Dogs and cats living together! Mass hysteria!
In Reality:
Nothingburger!

Administration attorneys said that the person who set up the meeting is a Fusion GPS operative. They are DNC contractors and are responsible for the whole Trump dossier lie.
Circa has a story linked on drudge.

Natalia Veselnitskaya filed an affidavit in a federal case in New York describing how she managed to get special permission to enter the United States after the visa denial to help represent a Russian company called Prevezon Holdings owned by the Russian businessman Denis Katsyv in a case brought against it by U.S. prosecutors.
Another player in the Russian influence scandal, the U.S.-based political firm Fusion GPS, was also involved in helping Prevezon, Katsyv and Baker Hostetler, according to the Grassley letter. Fusion has been a major focal point of the FBI and Congress because it hired a former British intelligence agent named Christopher Steele to produce a salacious intelligence dossier that made wild and still unsubstantiated claims about Trump ties to Russia.
Congressional investigators involved in the Russian influence case told Circa on Sunday that they are almost certain to probe if Veselnitskaya used her parole entry status to contact the Trump family and whether there is any connection to the Steele dossier and Fusion GPS.
President Trump’s lawyers said Saturday they feared Veselnitskaya’s meeting at Trump Tower may have been part of a broader election opposition effort to smear the Republican by creating the impression he and his family had extensive ties to Russia as the Kremlin was interfering in the 2016 election.
“We have learned from both our own investigation and public reports that the participants in the meeting misrepresented who they were and who they worked for,” said Mark Corallo, a spokesman for President Trump’s legal team. “Specifically, we have learned that the person who sought the meeting is associated with Fusion GPS, a firm which according to public reports, was retained by Democratic operatives to develop opposition research on the President and which commissioned the phony Steele dossier.

The meeting was requested under the guise of policy talks about a U.S. law called the Magnitsky Act that blocks U.S. adoptions of Russian children.
It was bullshite from the jump and was over in 20 minutes.
