Last month, two congressional Democrats called for a special counsel probe into Jared Kushner over his Saudi ties.
John, the day after Jared Kushner left the White House, he created a company that became a private equity fund—and six months later, the Saudi Arabian government handed it $2 billion.
Now, the Washington Post is reporting [[link removed]] that Kushner is likely to play an advisory role in the event of future negotiations over Israeli diplomatic normalization with Saudi Arabia.
The idea that Jared Kushner would serve in an advisory role on policy in the Middle East is absurd. His business ties and billions in investments from Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Qatar are disqualifying. He should not be anywhere near policy negotiations in the region.
As the letter from the congressional Democrats laid out:
“While on the Saudi government’s payroll, Mr. Kushner is simultaneously serving as a political consultant to former President Trump and acting as a shadow diplomat and political advisor to Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman and other foreign principals…
The scale of these undisclosed foreign payments to Mr. Kushner coupled with the national security implications of his apparent ongoing efforts to sell political influence to the highest foreign bidder are unprecedented and demand action from DOJ.”Donald Trump’s reelection and potential interest in bringing Jared Kushner in as an advisor on Middle East policy negotiations only make it more urgent that we get to the bottom of Kushner’s Saudi ties.
