Kushner accused of "hiding info" after ignoring Dems on possible conflicts of interest-Newsweek

"President Donald Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner is being called out by Democrats for failing to comment on whether he leveraged his role as a White House senior adviser to bail out a financially troubled family company building.

"Thirteen Democrats sent a letter to Kushner on December 6 stating they were concerned that he has a conflict of interest in working in the White House with a foreign affairs portfolio while possibly seeking massive cash bailouts for a 41-story building at 666 Fifth Ave. in New York owned by Kushner Companies.

Kushner failed to meet the Tuesday deadline the Democrats set for him to respond to two questions: whether he had any discussions about the property with foreign nationals in Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Qatar, China, Israel, France, or any other country excluding Russia since November 2016; and if so, if the conversations related to helping finance, purchase or assist with the building's debt.
Various media reports indicated that the property, of which more than half is owned by Kushner Companies, has incurred at least $1.2 billion in debt. "

Kushner is in big trouble for all of his coverups evidenced by lack of disclosure of business interests, failure to report contacts, withholding crucial emails regarding wikileaks etc. He was interviewed by Mueller before the Flynn indictment.

Call him a republican Beastie Boy if you are so inclined, but beyond dispute - JarJar Kushie's darkside dabbling with his whole freaking republican fam-damn-ily, is heinous, truly heinous.
