Looks like Kushner tried a power play with the Mercers

[rainbow4321]

Interesting. He wanted his long time friend Parscale (data guy) to be in charge of post election Trump's America First foundation...Rebekah Mercer didn't. Kushner got his way BUT the Mercers then pulled ALL their funding from that foundation and it started to flail, not doing anything productive because of no money coming in, apparently, per reports.

Kushner may have gotten a little too big for his britches, thinking that daddy-in-law's new job would let him get what he wants. He got a rude awakening. Looks like he's gonna be in for even more reality checks if he is pissing off GOP power players possibly involved with Russiagate. They may be more than happy to see him go under.
Didn't the Mercers have a tie in with Cambridge Analytica (who had embedded their data workers in Pascale's and Kushner's data center)? Did he and his friend think the Mercers would keep data guy around after the election and keep the Mercer money flowing to him/the "foundation"?

Buried deep in the article is the the Mercer-Kushner power struggle scenario.

Even before its launch, the nonprofit was riven with tensions as Parscale aggressively sought to lead the group, confronting Rebekah Mercer at a meeting in Trump Tower in December about who would be in charge. With the blessing of Jared Kushner, Trump’s influential son-in-law, Parscale had taken charge of the still-unformed group by January.

2. Mercer owns Cambridge Analytica with

Russian investors, I believe.

3. They are hard core evil.

And sneery Jared needs to be bitch slapped and get that look off his face.

4. The Mercer's are infinitely wealthier than

the Kushners. Hopefully they'll keep this power fight going and not start working together.

If the dems keep doing the same sh*t they've been doing for the last 8 years or so, they'll just keep losing influence/power and the damage done may take decades to 'repair'.

6. Mercers must have finally figured out that They are not "family"&so not getting their agenda pushed

Parscale is the data/bot/techy outfit that Kushner is using to funnel money to hacker/bot/soc media hacks on behalf of 45/Russia team effort (aka collusion & conspiracy)

IMO
Kushner was clever enough to create a way to gain access to Mercers money and Mercers Cambridge Analytica connections/...
Allowing.Parscale to place the Camb Analytica "brains" (10 Engineers) into his operations workforce....
And to handle all of the MEDIA purchases/expenditures (which we know were not 'traditional' or even necessarily legal types of MEDIA purchases)

The post election goal was to have Parscale & the Foundation obtain Government contracts for providing 'data driven' services to the various federal departments for research & marketing purposes...

In other words put Cambridge Analytica & Russian hacker Bot types on federal contact payroll & let them control all federal data and marketing and gain access to that $ by funneling it back thru the foundation....

Mercers thought Bannon would be there as a guarantee...
able to force the Mercer agenda into law by calling/making it Trumps Agenda ...

But Bannon has not found much success in his role..
And therefore Mercers are now realizing that their agenda is not a priority...
as 45 & Kush have no true political agenda...

Rather, their only agenda is income generation for themselves

they have successfully sold off every department /agency
And sold the 3 branches to Putin ...

Kush & 45 are busy lining their pockets before this gravy train is totally derailed...
hence, they could not care any less about Mercer's agenda getting put in place....
