Raskin asks Comer to subpoena Kushner for information on firm’s Saudi ties
The Hill ^ | 08/31/2023 | EMILY BROOKS

House Oversight Committee Ranking Member Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) asked panel Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) to subpoena Jared Kushner to produce documents about money his investment firm has received from Saudi Arabia and other Gulf monarchies.

In a Thursday letter to Comer on Thursday, Raskin referenced Comer’s recent public comments expressing skepticism about the post-Trump administration activities of Kushner, former President Trump’s son-in-law who was a top White House aide. Raskin asked him to join the Democrats’ probe into Kushner’s firm, Affinity Partners.

Formed in 2021, it reportedly raised $2 billion from an investment fund led by Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, and millions more from other Gulf nations.

So what if they have Saudi ties?

Is this one of the fools who wants the US to cut off relations with the Saudis?

Maybe the Biden records are in the 1967 Corvette. Maybe the FBI should seize And disassemble until they find the files….

Hey Jamie, after we’re done indicting Joe for Bribery and selling out American interests for personal gain, we’ll get back to you on Kushner’s legitimate business interests.

Dems would ignore a GOP request for a subpoena for Hunter Biden, so... no!

He is just being a disingenuous d bag. He knows were talking apples and oranges here but Prison Jamie is playing typical Twitter bitch games.

Did DJT have secret email addresses to conduct covert communications with the Saudis and Jared?

Did DJT brag about quid pro quo holding back Saudi funds unless they fired anti corruption agents?

Was Hunter qualified at all to be involved with the folks he was? I seem to recall Kushner putting together a pretty solid ME peace proposal......

But Jamie...you go girl...

The Saudis have similar accounts in dozens of investment firms.

This is just a feeble attempt to use “whataboutism” so somehow persuade the American public that the Trump kids are just as corrupt as the Biden family, so nothing to see here, folks. Of course it’s bull excrement, but the media will swoop on this and it will probably help the rotting, stinking corpse in the White House.

Raskin is a POS. He is trying to equate an open business with transparent dealings of Kuschner with the hidden, non transparent dealings of a coke head and his corrupt father — the Bidens. It doesn’t equate you corrupt POS.

If we are to have equal justice in this country, Raskin should be indicted for challenging the 2016 election.

Hunter Biden and Kushner are both corrupt and should share a cell together. And before any of the GOPe run to his defense, I’ll remind folks that 99% of the bad decisions made from 2017 to 2021 were undertaken by either Jared or Ivanka or both. They’re Democrats and grifters making billions off selling their access to Trump.

The head rag is to prevent seepage.
