”Senate Finance Committee Chair Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) launched an investigationWednesday into former President Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner, and his investment firm, Affinity Partners, over details regarding its investments in Saudi Arabia.

These arrangements also raise concerns that Affinity’s exclusively foreign funded private investment funds are being exploited as a loophole by Mr. Kushner and other former U.S. government officials as a means to avoid complying with the Foreign Agents Registration Act and other U.S. laws requiring U.S. persons to disclose payments form foreign governments,” Wyden wrote in the letter.

The chair is asking for the company to provide a list of all investors in funds managed by Affinity since its inception in 2021. For each investor, Wyden asked for Affinity to disclose the amount invested in funds it manages, total amount of fees the investment firm has been paid, and the annual rates of return, as well.”

Kushner and Ivanka got quite the treatment when Dementia Don was in the WH.

Trademarks fast tracked from China, Russia, Japan. Sometimes within a few days of when Dementia Don lifted sanctions.

Hundreds of millions made between the two, Kushner hooked up with 2 billion.

Yeah, sure, because I'm the one that thinks Donald Trump has dementia but not Joe Biden. :lol: :doh:

See what I mean?  Surrounded by liberal a$$holes!

This thread is discussing mannequin Jared Kushner and his perhaps questionable dealings. 

Without talking about Hunter or Joe please discuss!

You may want to check in on Merrick Garland's daughter and son-in-law writing text books and curriculum for your children by the consent and payment of .gov.

So the answer here is pretty much everyone, unless they are MAGA and then it’s a witch hunt.

Yeah I remember when both sides agreed that politicians were corrupt.  For some reason Maga held Trump exempt for corruption and pay to play, but he's just as dirty as the rest of them.  This whole "drain the swamp" nonsense was pure BS.

Lots of corruption everywhere. No need to make things up like the left has done.

Both sides are corrupt. Then why is only one guy being indicted multiple times? Shouldn’t there be much more politicians indicted and brought to trial?

You think Trump is the only guy being indicted? :lol:

We just had Menendez's corruption trial start.  You don't pay attention.

They’re all corrupt. Gutterboy gives one high profile example. Didn’t see that coming.

How corrupt does a democrat have to be to get indicted? They have to have gold bars, hundreds of thousands in cash and luxury cars bought for them I guess. No need to invent anything either.

Trump is corrupt then. But it’s the way it is because they all are?

Jared Kushner Solicits Funds for His Firm While Working as Mideast Envoy President ~~~ Trump’s son-in-law is trying to raise $5 billion or more from foreign governments and others for his private equity firm.

>>>

Jared Kushner, one of the U.S. government’s chief negotiators in the Middle East, is trying to raise more money for his private equity firm from governments in the region.

Mr. Kushner, President Trump’s son-in-law, has spoken with potential investors in recent weeks about raising $5 billion or more for Affinity Partners, his investment firm, according to five people with knowledge of the talks who were not permitted to speak publicly about the discussions.

As part of the fund-raising effort, Affinity’s representatives have already met with Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund, which invests the proceeds of the kingdom’s vast oil reserves, two of the people briefed on the discussions said. PIF is led by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, who has formed close ties with Mr. Kushner and the Trump administration.

PIF, which is already the largest and earliest investor in Affinity, invested $2 billion soon after the first Trump administration ended.

As part of that deal, the Saudis must be given the first chance to invest during any subsequent attempts by Affinity to raise funds, the two people said. Other Middle Eastern sovereign wealth funds that invested earlier in Affinity, including those in the United Arab Emirates and Qatar, are also expected to be asked for more, the people said.

Mr. Kushner’s fund-raising is expected to stretch on for the better part of this year.

The efforts show the blurring of the lines between public service and private profit-seeking during Mr. Trump’s second term. Only a few weeks ago, in his role as Mr. Trump’s “peace envoy,” Mr. Kushner met in Geneva with Iran’s foreign minister. The U.S. and Israeli bombing campaign in Iran began shortly after those meetings concluded without a deal on Iran’s nuclear program.<<<

This is the sinister, darkly funny part. He’s not, nor is Ivanka. They just use Maga. Supposedly Kushner & Witkoff were besides Netanyahu the two persons advising Trump on Iran’s nuclear capabilities & intentions. I mean as far as who actually influenced him.

Not only is Kushner related to Trump, he has massive conflicts of interest due to financial entanglements with the Saudis.

Oh, and he did promise not to get involved in Trump’s 2nd term.

And he is not a government official, so it’s not legal for him to negotiate on America’s behalf.

Illegal, unethical, and downright lying. He fits in PERFECTLY with this administration.

Wyden asked DoJ to open an investigation. Bondi is probably still looking into it 😐

They had 8 months. What happened?
