And the first shown comment is Jared Kushner calling the claims categorically false. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

That’s what the URL links to.

The real question is: is he going to sue Vanity Fair? If not, he can say all he wants on X, but the message is clear; Vanity Fair's evidence apparently holds up.

I understand he is a billionaire and transfer of money from different banks around the world is axiomatic for him, but why would he be involved in payments involving assassins I think more tangible evidence is needed.

If you wait for more tangible evidence for the presidents daughters husband who has no business in government but is operating at an extremely high level doing foreign negotiations between waring countries... You will never get it in a timely fashion. For obvious reasons.

Our now former allies aren't making this public to smear some guy they met at a party they don't like. They are warning the world that the us is an oligarchy and rule of law is dead.

Guilty until proven otherwise?

We're not in court. And there's plenty of other indicators that Kushner is taking bribes.

I mean why wouldn't he?

If he's telling the truth, then I would do the same.

If he's lying, then it might work, I would also probably do the same.

The interesting thing here is that two publications allowed the journalist to call Kushner "corrupt". This means that the lawyers would have seen compelling evidence that would mean one of two things:

1) Kushner wouldn't take them to court, because he would have to settle out of court in an expensive way

2) Kushner, if he were to take court action, would not win civil case.

This leads me to think that there is more than a shred of evidence, but an awful lot of evidence that he didn't declare what he was supposed to (at best) and at worse laundered foreign cash for his own purposes

He would be stupid not to. His wife's father is the president. Shit they probably split the money. Why else is he in the role he has lol.

It's over for the US they will never wake up no matter how bad things get. It's so comically bad you'd imagine the so called well-regulated militia would have intervened by now
blooalien•4m ago
The "so called well-regulated militia" hasn't been a real thing in the USA since shortly after the "founding" of the nation (if it even existed then). The closest thing (maybe) might be the National Guard, but these day they're clearly mostly just puppets for the rich and powerful.

So if I followed the story, it as GRU (Russian intel) that hacked his phone. Dutch intel then recruited a spy from GRU that handed over the data.

In any case, Kushner - and rightfully so - could not obtain a security clearance the first time around, due to massive debt. But it was overruled / waived by higher ups.

I've worked in intel, and Kushner seems like the textbook example - a cautionary tale - on the type of person you do not want to grant anything of importance.

Honestly it sort of blows my mind that the US has a system decisions by security professionals can simply be overruled.

Hey, according to the Snowden leaks, what’s a little spying among friends?

I feel like the headline here should be different.
