Special Counsel Robert S. Mueller is investigating the finances and business dealings of Jared Kushner, President Trump’s son-in-law and adviser, as part of the probe into Russia’s interference in the 2016 presidential election, according to officials familiar with the matter.

FBI agents and federal prosecutors have also been examining the financial dealings of other Trump associates, including former national security adviser Michael Flynn, former campaign chairman Paul Manafort and Carter Page, who was listed as a foreign policy adviser for the campaign.

The Washington Post had earlier reported that investigators were scrutinizing separate meetings that Kushner held with Russians in December — first with Russian ambassador Sergey Kislyak and then with Sergey Gorkov, the head of a state-owned Russian development bank. At the time of that report it was not clear that the FBI was investigating Kushner’s business dealings.

The officials who described the financial focus of the investigation spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly.

Oh shit.

How many dominos will follow?

 

[Ogodei]

You wouldn't last a second in prison Jared. You'd best flip now.

[Smellycat]

[Random Human]

[Loudninja]

Hahaha

 

[DopeyFish]

lol....i have to wonder if all these 'special council is investigating' leaks want Trump to fire him.

i think the reason they keep being leaked is probably because they keep reacting to it in some way

the one way to prove things is to see them doing it in the act

 

[Tovarisc]

Wunderkind going to be in some hot water.

lol....i have to wonder if all these 'special council is investigating' leaks want Trump to fire him.

I almost wonder if leaks like this are designed to see if Kushner panics and does something dumb. Same with the various Flynn and Manaforte and Page leaks.

[cooljeanius]

I want to see kushner and ivanka rat on trump to save themselves.

they can't save themselves. Jared is more than likely one of the Key figures the FBI is targeting, and Ivanka was photographed going on vacations with Putins rumored girlfriend.

They can't save them selves.

Oh crap, good point.

Deep State putting in work this week.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO NEW THREADY WORTHY

 

[Muffin1611]

Trumps ultimate humiliation would be Jared ratting him out and escaping together with Ivanka.

I want to see them all punished, but that would be hilarious to see.

One time at my high school they announced over the PA that the police had arrived with drug-sniffing dogs, they would be sniffing all the lockers, and for everyone to stay in the rooms they were in.

I saw several people bolt for their lockers as quick as possible.

Is it lit?

IT'S SO FUCKING LIT

 

[Muffin1611]

Isn't it old news that Trump himself is under investigation for obstruction now? Several hours old? Don't we already have a thread about it?

 

[sunshine and gasoline]

Jared must regret getting involved with the Trump family or rather he might start to.

 

[Stinkles]

I wonder if it's even possible for Jared to look paler and sweatier than he already does.

That's what I thought - seems like NBC is just catching up. Though not sure if the "criminal" part is new?

 

[johnsmith]

Yeah it's the same thing as last night's WaPo story that already has a 9 page thread.

 

[MarionCB]

Will they be able to make Kushner talk?

Can anyone make Kushner talk?

Will Kushner ever just damn well talk?

I'm still not totally convinced the guy isn't a Real doll.

Yeah, in watching it, aren't they just confirming the Post story?

How is this news? I don't get it. WaPo broke this yesterday?

 

[Impeccable]

FAKE NEWS!

First they make up this LIE about "RUSSIA" connections.
Then lie about "OBSTRUCTION" and drop "IT".
Now they make up "MONEY" investigations on greatest "HUSBAND" for my beautiful, sexy daughter Ivanka. SAD.

 

[Baroquemantic]

Beautiful

See above. Eventually it will trickle down to Fox, and the cries of fake news will end.

Well, yes, don't understand the extreme reactions though after WaPo broke that news last night already.

All news that hurts Trump is worth celebrating, even if it's a repeat.
