This is outrageous and treasonous. Basically, Kushner would have us start a war with Qatar -a country where we have a huge military base - because they wouldn’t give him money and the Emirates and Saudis will. It’s foreign policy for sale to the highest bidder, exactly as many of us feared.
And, on top of that, Kushner allegedly gave the Saudi crown prince the names of his enemies that Kushner had obtained from the PDB. Many of those people were subsequently tortured and jailed. No wonder the crown prince bragged that he has Kushner in his pocket.
Thank goodness Mueller’s on top of this.
Trump’s gonna have to knock down Mueller so fast and hard he’ll cry.
Didn’t Nader flee the country?
Emails. It’s always the emails. Lock her up!
Mueller gave Nader full immunity. No one else in Mueller’s cross-hairs got immunity - only reduced charges with other more serious charges tabled. Nader is holding something big… along the lines of the selling-out of United States foreign policy to the high bidder.
George Nader, a Middle East expert connected to several associates of President Donald Trump, is now cooperating with the special counsel Robert Mueller and has testified before a grand jury in the Russia investigation, The New York Times reported Tuesday.
FBI investigators approached Nader when he landed at Washington Dulles International Airport in January and served him with search warrants and a grand jury subpoena, the report said. At the time, Nader was en route to Mar-a-Lago to meet with President Donald Trump and his associates to celebrate the anniversary of Trump’s first year in office.
No, I mean like yesterday. I could’ve sworn I heard on either Hayes or Maddow that he ghosted.
Not that I trust the Daily Mail as a rule…
Putin: “I thought he was in our pocket! Damn UAEs and Saudis!”

One of the things I keep in the back of my mind in relation to this entire fiasco is the Citizens United decision…or more specifically, Obama’s criticism of it during a his first SOTU and Alito mouthing “not true” in response to Obama saying that it would open the floodgates for foreign interests to pour their money into our elections. I can’t express just how fucking satisfying it is going to be when Mueller shows that it not only happened, but that the GOP deliberately made it happen and arranged the entire thing, committing myriad crimes and what should be considered damn near to treason. Fuck you, Alito…and the rest of the GOP’s political operatives on the Court…
The NYT article notes that Nader has been summoned back to the U.S. for more testimony.
I’m willing to let Trump resign because of nukes. But if Kushner gets away with no jail time it’d be a real miscarriage of justice. He’s no genius but he’s not mentally ill. He’s just an amoral little shit who’s one of the worst abusers of this miserable situation.
Jesus…Mueller is an animal. Trump’s going to get his wish of being the unbeatably biggest reality star in history.
His trial is going to make the OJ trial look like the media was sleeping through it.
Mueller is investigating whether Nader helped steer money to help Trump politically, the New York Times reported earlier this month.
But a source close to Zayed has said that Nader has now fled to the UAE after the Emirati prince pulled strings with US officials to secure his freedom to move.
I saw that too but find it hard to believe that Mueller would allow such a valuable cooperating witness to abscond. Not his style.
Maddow covered it well last night. Wheels within wheels and gears turning . You just have trouble wrapping your head around the amount and audacity of the grift
Worth a look - 'splains a lot
More Fake News from the Deep State? Shouldn’t they be busier doing more important things like pranking Carson with expensive furniture?
I think this has been debunked as exaggerated. Nader has been summoned back to U.S. to testify further.
