NEW: CREW got records showing that the Secret Service spent more than $16,000 to protect Jared Kushner during a trip to the UAE and Qatar after the end of the Trump presidency.

John –

We just got our hands on a bunch of internal Secret Service documents about Jared Kushner.

You may already know that Kushner’s portfolio during his time at the White House – a role he got thanks to nepotism – was wide ranging, including being tasked with brokering peace in the Middle East. During that time, he developed a friendship with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.

Perhaps not so coincidentally, the Saudi Sovereign Wealth Fund, controlled by Prince Mohammed bin Salman, also invested $2 billion with Kushner’s firm just six months after the end of the Trump administration, around the time of this trip to the Middle East.

John, Jared Kushner may have used his government role to help get investments from Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Qatar – and he traveled to those countries with protection paid for by US taxpayers.

If Kushner used his White House position to secure a private windfall that would be a serious conflict of interest. Read our investigation here, and consider making a donation to our anti-corruption work→

Why did the Saudis hand Jared Kushner $2,000,000,000 when he left the White House? Why aren't more people talking about how that may have impacted his approach to the job, and what he may have given them in exchange for that investment?

We cannot allow our public officials to be bought, or to sell out the interests of the American people for a payout when they leave government.
