Al-Malik reportedly tried to use his influence with Barrack to shape the Trump campaignâs Middle East policy.
Step 1: Get Qatar to write off loans to Kushner Co.
Step 2: Shower money on influential Republicans.
Step 3: Open doors to sell military hardware to cash-rich countries in Mid-East
Step 4: Provoke a regional war with Iran

Wrt to Trump inauguration, they still owe $7M to DC despite the $107M it raised.
AND with the Rat-Infested-Kushnerville owner now in charge of Trumpâs 2020 campaign, rest assured, Russia will NOT be the only foreign nation interfering in 2020 elections, not to mention more spy firm hired eg Black Cube for dirty ops!

The headline has a déjà vu quality about it. Grifter in admin being investigated. Everything old is new again.

When you go shopping for a new car, typically youâre looking for a newer model with all the upgrades and latest features. Nobody wants to get an old clunker.
