FLASHBACK: Saudi crown prince bragged that Jared Kushner gave him CIA intelligence...

PUBLISHED: 09:23 EDT, 5 April 2018 | UPDATED: 10:58 EDT, 5 April 2018

EXCLUSIVE: Saudi crown prince bragged that Jared Kushner gave him CIA intelligence about other Saudis saying 'here are your enemies' days before 'corruption crackdown' which led to torture and death
Saudi crown prince Mohammed bin Salman met with Jared Kushner in October
Salman has since bragged about using classified intelligence from Kushner as part of a crackdown on 'corrupt' princes and businessmen in Saudi Arabia
He said the intelligence from Kushner included information on those who were disloyal to Salman and who were his 'enemies', insiders tell DailyMail
Kushner's attorney's spokesman said it was 'false' that the president's son-in-law passed on secrets and that he was 'well aware of the rules'
The crown prince launched his crackdown on corruption in November, days after he met Kushner for talks in Riyadh
Hundreds were rounded up, including princes from rival parts of the Saudi royal family and some of the country's wealthiest businessmen
But the crackdown saw accusations of torture and at least one reported death

It's been known to happen, especially when we're dealing with Crown Prince Bone Saw.

Against professional recommendations, tRump insisted that Kushner get a top level security clearance. Rumor has it that Kushner showed inordinate interest in accessing top secret files. The events reported in this 2018 WaPo article occurred. Someone decided which documents to take out of the White House after the 2020 election. The Saudis gave Kushner $2B.

Aren't these data points enough to think Kushner should be In the crosshairs of Justice along with his traitorous father-in-lawlessness?

the time is right. He might be involved right now in a plea deal for cooperation, or might be in the DOJ crosshairs. Investigators and prosecutors usually do not keep suspects and the general public up to date on the status of their investigations prior to indictments and arrests.

The Trump Admin had previously been moving ahead with turning over nuclear technology as part of a "Middle East Marshall Plan" for Saudi Arabia and others, circumventing national security.

The Washington Post reported Thursday that the FBI was also looking for classified documents about nuclear weapons.

I hope he doesn't get to skate either because he's not going to change his stripes going forward.

MBS also reportedly bragged that Kushner was "in my pocket." Given what we feel we know of Kushner, easy to believe. MBS could casually steer $2B financially embattled Kushner's way while taking routine calls and clearing his desk of routine paperwork.
