The never ending saga of Jared Kushner and the Kushner family corruption.  Eventually he's going to get caught.

  White House investigating $500 million in loans to Kushner’s family business


White House attorneys are examining whether two loans totaling more than $500 million to Jared Kushner’s family business may have violated any criminal laws or federal ethics regulations, according to a letter from a federal ethics agency made public Monday.

The Office of Government Ethics told a Democratic lawmaker in the letter that the White House is probing whether a $184 million loan from the real-estate arm of Apollo Global Management APO, +1.16%  nd a $325 million loan from Citigroup Inc. C, +2.77%   may have run afoul of the rules and laws governing the conduct of federal employees.

Both loans went to the Kushner Cos., the private real-estate company founded by Kushner’s father and run by members of his family. Kushner, who is President Donald Trump’s son-in-law and serves in a senior position in the White House, met with top executives of both Citi and Apollo before each loan was disbursed, the New York Times reported last month.....

As I had pointed out in another thread, he's got trouble written all over him.  Kushner has severe conflicts with business and government work.  There are no special qualities or experience that makes him indispensable.  McMaster had raised concerns about his conflicts and security risks.  Now, he's out.


H.R. McMaster, President Donald Trump's national security adviser, learned that Kushner had contacts with foreign officials that he did not coordinate through the National Security Council or officially report. The issue of foreign officials talking about their meetings with Kushner and their perception of his vulnerabilities was a subject raised in McMaster's daily intelligence briefings, according to the current and former officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive matters.

I disagree.  Circle gets the square.

I was honestly hoping that his COS Kelly would show the Kushner's the door.
