Son in law Jared Kushner under investigation

[VitaMan]

The MAGA cult has been covering the Hunter Biden conviction for improper gun registration like a wet blanket. He is the son of President Biden.


Yet they ignore the activities of Jared Kushner, who rakes in over $ 70 million per year in fees from foreign governments. He is the son in law of former president Trump.


Finally someone is going to take a look at them.


Senate Finance Committee Chair Ron Wyden announced the probe on Wednesday, saying that the panel would investigate the billions of dollars that Affinity Partners manages from foreign sources.


Kushner started Affinity in July 2021, less than six months after leaving the White House as a senior adviser to former President Donald Trump. The firm quickly attracted big-time investors from the Middle East and within weeks, landed $2 billion from the Saudi public investment fund.


"It is deeply concerning that several Middle Eastern governments are using funds managed by Affinity as a means to pay tens of millions of dollars in fees every year to former President Trump's son-in-law.


Affinity has disclosed to regulators that 99 percent of the $3 billion of assets that the firm manages come from non-U.S. persons.


"As the founder and sole owner of Affinity, Kushner is the biggest beneficiary of the fees paid to Affinity by the Saudi PIF and other Gulf state clients," Wyden wrote.


During his time at the White House, Kushner advised his father-in-law on foreign affairs, advocating for the Trump administration to embrace Saudi Arabia.


"The Saudi PIF's decision to invest $2 billion in Affinity so soon after Kushner's departure from the Trump White House raises concerns that the investment was a reward for official actions Kushner took to benefit the Saudi government.


He continued, "Moreover, in the final two weeks of the Trump Administration, Mr. Kushner traveled to Saudi Arabia purportedly on official business—even though any reasonable window for meaningful foreign policy achievements would have closed with an upcoming inauguration of a new President."


Wyden expressed concern that Kushner's "limited track record as an investor, including his nonexistent experience in private equity or hedge funds, raise questions about the fees that Affinity receives from the Saudi PIF and other sovereign wealth funds."

Beyond corruption!

No surprise. He and Ivanka have been wisely distancing themselves from Trump for a while. Why not distance yourself from someone under heavy scrutiny when you can just indirectly act like you have no part of any potential wrongdoings and can just lay low? Unfortunately for them, you can't simply wash off the Donald Trump stink and certainty not when you greatly benefit financially from his funky smell.

Yep. This is absolute bullshit. This is what it would look like for Hunter in a MAGA world.

Excellent news. I wish they'd started earlier.
