Dude...... the GoP are in control of the country. .... if they actually had a case they would have brought it forward. They have no case hence no charges. If you are mad go complain to the GoP and Sessions.
I am not always a big fan of the republican obsession with self-flagellation over minor ethical or PC breaches that dems would laugh off. I don't think this is one of those cases however. You cannot have a senior WH official negotiating large loans for himself or his company. I don't like it even if he were walled off from the negotiations. There is precisely the sort of appearance of conflict that any responsible official would be on guard to avoid. Here, it is virtually thrown in our faces. It is uncomfortably similar to the same sort of pay to play operation that Hillary ran and that we rightly objected to. This is the problem with hiring relatives. It's tough to fire them when they screw up.
Hopefully he is out of the white house soon. And the way Trump is governing as a democrat establishment sellout... hopefully he is primaried.
Kushner is a pig at the trough, just not smart enough to cover it. Reminiscent of Spiro Agnew in the 70's. The last honest man in America unmasked. Bernie Sanders Fined For Illegally Coordinating With Australian Labor Party http://dailycaller.com/2018/02/28/bernie-sanders-australia-federal-election-commission/
Horrific. “During the course of the campaign, thousands and thousands of young people from every state and many other countries volunteered. Among them were seven Australian young people who were receiving a modest stipend and airfare from the Australian Labor Party so they could learn about American politics,” the spokesperson said. “The folks on the campaign managing volunteers did not believe the stipend disqualified them from being volunteers.” “In order to avoid a long and expensive fight with the FEC over the technical status of these young people, the campaign agreed to pay the FEC a small settlement but did not agree that it broke any rules,” the Sanders spokesperson added.
This article appears in Rawstory , a left leaning publication but if anyone wants the original you will find it in NYT. Trump is ‘annoyed’ that Kushner is ‘another problem to deal with’ as he fights with his attorney general President Donald Trump is growing increasingly “annoyed” with top aide Jared Kushner, and he’s “sounding regretful” Kushner is taking fire, while simultaneously infuriated his son-in-law has become yet another legal liability. According to a New York Times report from Maggie Haberman, The Kushner problem adds to other mounting problems like chief of staff John Kelly battling with the Trump children and news that chief economic adviser, Gary Cohn was ready to resign after Trump’s speech on tariffs. Kushner’s legal problems and the reports of the Kushner family’s real estate company causing his security clearance downgrade, both Trump and his staff have been frustrated. The Times reported that some aides even regret Trump’s daughter and son-in-law working in the West Wing and want them to leave. According to Haberman, Trump has told them to stay, but privately told Kelly to move them out. At the same time, Cohn, a former Goldman Sachs president, lobbied against Trump’s trade war. He’s already threatened to resign in wake of Trump’s allegations that there are “bad people on both sides” at the Charlottesville riots. The tariff might be the nail in the coffin.
FBI counterintelligence officials are now investigating Ivanka Trump White House adviser and First Daughter Ivanka Trump is reportedly under investigation by FBI counterintelligence officials for her role in a brokering a deal for a Trump hotel in Canada. Former and current US officials told CNN that the FBI is probing the Trump International Hotel and Tower Vancouver “to determine whether any of those deals could leave them vulnerable to pressure from foreign agents, including China.” The Vancouver hotel, which features at trademarked Ivanka Trump spa, opened the month after President Donald Trump took office. Though the Trump Organization does not own the hotel itself, they did reportedly receive $5 million in royalties and $21,500 in fees from the hotel’s owner, Malaysian developer Joo Kim Tiah, who owns and operates developments in Canada under his Holborn Group company. “It’s not clear why investigators are examining this particular deal,” CNN’s report noted. “The timing of the deal — as one of the few Trump-branded properties to open since Trump took office — could be of interest. The flow of foreign money, either from the developer or international condo buyers, could also be sparking scrutiny.” Reports that the eldest Trump daughter is also under counterintelligence investigation comes the same week as a Washington Post exposé revealed that Jared Kushner, Ivanka’s husband and fellow senior White House adviser, held meetings inside the West Wing with bankers prior to receiving half a billion dollars in loans. The Post also revealed that Kushner was considered an easy target for manipulation by at least four foreign governments due to a $1.2 billion debt his family business owns that will come due in January 2019.
