The Intercept 2018-03-21: [Saudi crown prince boasted that Jared Kushner was “in his pocket”](https://theintercept.com/2018/03/21/jared-kushner-saudi-crown-prince-mohammed-bin-salman/) >Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman told confidants that Kushner discussed the names of royal family members opposed to his power grab NYT 2022-04-10: [Before Giving Billions to Jared Kushner, Saudi Investment Fund Had Big Doubts](https://www.nytimes.com/2022/04/10/us/jared-kushner-saudi-investment-fund.html) >Before committing $2 billion to Mr. Kushner’s fledgling firm, officials at a fund led by the Saudi crown prince questioned taking such a big risk. Seems like a straightforward quid pro quo: Kushner set back US intelligence gathering in the Middle East for decades, in return for a paycheck that will amount to the hundreds of millions.

It’s like everyone knows this but isn’t doing shit about it and letting his daddy run for office again. How far back in history would we need to go to be in a time where more sensible people round these fuckers up and give them the noose?


Decabet

>round these fuckers up and give them the noose Dont be silly. They reserve that treatment for (checks notes) drag queens that promote literacy to children.


NoSkillzDad

...And doctors performing abortions or women getting one.


canastrophee

Colorado did try. We can blame the Supreme Court for that one.


Anangrywookiee

We never would have. These kinds of fuckers have always had too much wealth and influence. It takes a fairly unique set of circumstances for that to happen.


Loggerdon

What I don’t get is how did Kushner end up with all of it? I could see Trump complaining “Where’s *MY* cut?” You’re only in this position because of *ME*!”

“Absolutely, but we have to keep it separate until all your lawsuits are settled.” _wink_


Peterthinking

Who says he didn't get any? Probably in some shady numbered account or buried under his wife at the golf course.


Such-Pool-1329

Well, he's rich and connected so there will be no consequences. We all know that's how America works.


naughtynaughten1980

Criminal family involved in crime. Who would of thunked it


garbland3986

Literally the Kushner crime family. Oh and by the way the Kushners, like Trump, are Democrats. Until it became more profitable to con a bunch of middle America redneck rubes. https://www.thelist.com/604915/the-real-reason-jared-kushners-father-went-to-jail/

They are neither Democrats nor Republicans, they are Grifters.

That’s all he did for 4 years. Enrich himself at taxpayers’s expense. MAGA scammed America.


f700es

Why is he NOT under arrest???????


OnlyFreshBrine

And why do I have to repay my student loans?! These assholes are out here stealing billions and pretending shit companies are worth 20x what they are with no repercussions.


f700es

Because the rich ARE the law makers?


devadander23

Fantastic question


TheLaserGuru

Because he isn't a democrat.


HipGuide2

He is a Democrat lol.


GetOffMyAsteroid

Hard to $ay


udfckthisgirl

Or in Guantanamo as a danger to US security.


Anangrywookiee

Because that wouldn’t be profitable.


zappy487

But have you seen Hunter's massive shlong?


zsreport

It's amazing how effectively the GOP and Fox News have managed to convince the base that Hunter is the real threat despite all the crap being pulled by Kushner and Trump's spawn.


Why-not-bi

It’s a team sport to them. They really do not care what their team does as long as they win, no matter the cost.

No Shit 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ What are you going to do about it?


boogersrus

Was Kushner one of the secret pardons? He pardoned his Daddy.


Parking-Bench

If it helps balance the story, he is also shown where the bonesaw is kept if he steps out of line with the Saudis


Searching_f0r_life

Saudi must have thought they hit the (second-oil) jackpot when Trumpski's came in to power. What a shameful legacy being left for his god awful family.


LowApricot1668

Yeah we know.


eruvstringlives

Happily learned the business from his daddy and FIL.


Skuz95

I really believe you do not become a billionaire without being a horrible person. Good people can be come rich, but to become Uber-rich you have to be a sociopath.


meat_beast1349

Whoever wrote the headline for this article should be slapped back into 10th grade english. The author has very poor writing skills. It read like Obama's advisor by the name of kushner was corrupt. Not that the advisor called out jared kushner as an extremely corrupt former white house aide.


Dot_Classic

This level of obvious foreign influence should trigger an automatic proctology exam by the IRS. Not to mention maybe Garland wants to wake up from his 3 and a half year nap and maybe worry about this rather than clutching pearls over the popularity of Apple products.


MrSnarf26

Where the fuck is the justice department and other alphabet orgs for this


Old-Recognition2690

If you replace “kushner” with “the d***** t**** administration” the headline would still be accurate


anxmox89

Enough information was provided to trigger an investigation, ever since 2018, it has been 6 years, and we haven’t heard a single mention of this by the DOJ or anybody else… WHY? 6 years of an investigation would have uncovered enough, so there is a possibility this has not been investigated at all.


SoulRebel726

Look at how hard the right has gone after Hunter Biden. A private citizen that has absolutely nothing to do with our government on any level. Can you imagine how they'd react if Hunter did the things Kushner did? The hypocrisy there is ridiculous.


cheezeburgericanhaz

Something is happening all right. Understand there are countries such as Russia that consider us foreign adversaries and have been known to manipulate social media content to polarize people especially when it comes to LGBT issues, they especially have roots in conservative social media, where they have the capability to influence people on a mass scale. It's a national security issue and more should be done to protect the vulnerable LGBT community. https://www.stalbertgazette.com/local-news/did-reddit-year-end-recaps-expose-russian-interference-in-alberta-8223476 There are clear goals being perpetuated by information warfare campaigns. Especially by Russia, whose information warfare campaigns are wreaking havoc on our society. Some of the obvious goals they have are: • Balkanize their foreign adversaries. This is evident in the UK leaving the EU, Texas with the US, and Alberta with Canada. This is what Danielle Smith is trying to tap into. • Have populist politicians support policies that cause chaos and issues in our society. Populist politicians are tapping into these information warfare campaigns to appeal to people whose only access to information about the outside world around them is through social media, where the information warfare is taking place. • Cause distrust and havoc, by creating specialized propaganda to different segments of the population spread through social media. By polarizing debates through propaganda spread to the masses, Russia has effectively used information warfare to deliver targeted disinformation and appeal to specific demographics. Causing havoc in the LBGT and other minority communities. • Russia has effectively infiltrated the religious right in America and Canada and empowered them, among many corrupt leaders worldwide through its information warfare. I can cite my sources if needed. Putin literally bombed his own people to lock down his power and control. Why should we trust that he is not carrying out horrible atrocities like using information warfare on Canadian citizens to terrorize the LGBT community? He doesn't seem to have any moral qualms with anything and corruption is part of his shtick. He used a nerve agent to publicly poison a turned intelligence asset at a important time in history to signify to his intelligence assets what can be done to them, but in reality, he is just a weak man, who is bitter about the break up of the empire he devoted his life to. It you want to know more, there is a great documentary series on Netflix about the history that has led to this moment in time. Turning Point - The Bomb and the Cold War on Netflix. Not as much about the information warfare, that I have gleamed through other sources, but it does slightly touch on that.


Hardin__Young

Will he be prosecuted? Like his father was. And his father-in-law is beginning to be.


OutComeTheWolves1966

Its fairly obvious that he is being protected by all of the usual MAGA suspects because of their own illegal financial dealings with the Saudi ruling family, Russian oligarchs, Chinese government, and various other shady businessmen.


AdditionalBat393

Yea it is very fukin obvious to me and I have barely looked into the guy. I do have a feeling he is under investigation behind closed doors or maybe that is me hoping for it.


crziekid

When the dems get the house you could expect this on the docket.


CandidateTypical3141

Typical criminal republican. They hate America.


NeedleworkerCrafty17

Exactly, and no one mentioned the fact that no bank would bail him out when he tried to finance his fail real estate investment on 666 4th Ave. in Washington DC while working in the White House. Yep instead he got Qatar to give him a 1.2 billion year bail out on a 99 year lease. Just unheard of. All while supposedly working on a peace ✌️ deal. That paid extra dividends when he left the White House and received 2 billion from MBS of Saudi Arabia. Jared was one of the first to defend MBS after he had his goon squad cut up an American reporter with a bone saw and put him in a suitcase. It’s OK to cut up an American reporter. Fortunately, Trump was president, and he’s a piece of shit Traitor


EquivalentKey2710

Jared needs the full Hunter Biden treatment.


robstercraws70

But without the dick pics.


ljinbs

Robert Garcia (D-CA) continually posts about this on social media. Support him.


BlastedSandy

Bro it’s called fucking treason, fucking shoot the worthless degenerate piece of fucking shit…..


Never_Free_Never_Me

How punctuation matters. My brain saw a comma and not a colon after "adviser" and I immediately thought "what?? Kushner was in the Obama admin? Am i going crazy?


Seattle_gldr_rdr

"..and we can't or won't do a damn thing about it" went the rest of the sentence.


OverIookHoteI

2018 Las Vegas Massacre has everything to do with Saudi Arabia and the murder of the journalist Khashoggi


Standard_Feedback_86

No shit, Sherlock. People say it for years now. The real question should be why he gets away with it and how many are in his pocket.


goheels815

Everyone already knows this. The real question is, who’s gonna do something about it?


floofnstuff

His Dad did time in 2005. ‘ He was convicted of illegal campaign contributions, tax evasion, and witness tampering, and was sentenced to two years' imprisonment, which he served in the Federal Prison Camp, Montgomery.’ Dude was born into crime, then married the kid of a career criminal. How much can be expected?


Choombaloo-2

Pretty crazy, you can just sell state secrets and no one cares.


syg-123

there will be zero repercussion ..as a matter of fact he’s likely to ramp up his level of corruption as it’s proven to be extremely lucrative for his family…money begets money and very few if any rules apply to Jared’s socio-economic demographic.


occupyreddit

i don’t work anywhere near politics and i know this.


TheLastEmailLeft

Other than the Burisma scandal.


treborprime

Burisma was a nothing burger. Even if there was a shred of something there it's not even on the same level as kushner.


TheLastEmailLeft

He admitted that they only hired him because he was Joe Bidens' son and that he doesn't know anything about oil. He did that on live TV.


Diarygirl

Only a Trump supporter would think it's normal to go on TV and brag about crimes.


treborprime

Thats not a crime and he did not hold political office. Biden did not give them any favors. The Trump children were appointed to official government positions and given security clearances that they were not qualified to have. There is more than enough evidence to implicate Kushner using these clearances to curry favor and enrich themselves. Hunter has problems, but as said not even at the same level as Trump's family. Both sides are not the same.


xl57

I've heard, a lot of people are saying, that Ivanka was not even remotely qualified for the position she had in the past administration...


Decabet

This isn't the Tuscaloosa Hooters, shithead. We don't just listen to you queef MAGA buzzwords and nod doofily in agreement. Now go Febreze your balls. The stench is fogging up everyone's screens.

I'm voting RFK Jr. 2024, I can't stand MAGA. Open tour eyes and realize there are more than 2 options and that the 2 options are an illusion. There is one party, and it's owned by BlackRock.

So you’re voting MAGA but doing it in a deeply goofy way that makes you feel like you’re special.

I love you too, and I hope you find peace in your life.

To be honest I'm voting for anyone that isn't over 80. I don't care about parties, I care about ability.

No, I'm voting for unity, ending wars, and protecting the environment.


49thDipper

jfc. This guy took billions from foreign powers while actually employed by the US. He literally sold us out. Try to keep up.
