Jared Kushner identified as senior White House official whose security clearance was denied by career officials
The senior White House official whose security clearance was denied last year because of concerns about foreign influence, private business interests and personal conduct is presidential son-in-law Jared Kushner, according to people familiar with documents and testimony provided to the House Oversight Committee.
Kushner was identified only as “Senior White House Official 1” in committee documents released this week describing the testimony of Tricia Newbold, a whistleblower in the White House’s personnel security office who said she and another career employee determined that Kushner had too many “significant disqualifying factors” to receive a clearance.
Citat:[…]
Last year, President Trump directed his then-chief of staff, John F. Kelly, to give Kushner a top-secret security clearance, despite concerns expressed by career intelligence officers.

Citat:Wyden Continues Investigation Into Kushner Conflicts of Interest, Influence on U.S. Foreign Policy
In light of new testimony in federal court by former Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and the decision by OPEC+ to reduce oil production, Senate Finance Committee Chair Ron Wyden, D-Ore., today continued his investigation into whether Jared Kushner’s financial conflicts of interest have influenced U.S. foreign policy, with a letter to private equity firm Brookfield Asset Management.
Brookfield in 2018 paid Kushner Companies $1.2 billion using funding from the Government of Qatar to sign a 99 year lease on the 666 Fifth Avenue property. Brookfield has stonewalled the investigation, refusing to answer how a Brookfield fund was used to bail out the struggling property. Qatar’s sovereign wealth fund was the second largest investor in Brookfield Property Partners, which was used to acquire the property.

Trump administration has yet to reveal details of Jared Kushner’s secretive 2017 meeting in China
In November 2017, CNBC had booked Hugo Shong, a prominent Chinese venture capitalist, to talk about bilateral business relations between the United States and China, as the first year of President Donald Trump’s tenure was nearing a close.
Citat:Trump was on a 12-day tour through Asia, his second major international trip since taking office. On the agenda during his two-day stop in Beijing: bilateral meetings with President Xi Jinping and Premier Li Kequiang; a “meet-and-greet” with U.S. Embassy staff; a speech and business event at the Great Hall of the People; and a receiving line at a state dinner.
What wasn’t on the White House or State Department agendas: a meeting with private equity investors convened by Jared Kushner, the president’s son-in-law and senior advisor, and U.S. Ambassador Terry Branstad. During our conversation with Shong at the time, he revealed he had accepted the administration’s invitation for Chinese investors to offer advice in a small-group forum with the two U.S. officials as they worked to outline the administration’s policy.

For years I've been investigating Jared Kushner's business deals with foreign governments. He's masquerading as an investment manager but the evidence I've seen makes him look like an unregistered foreign agent. @RepRaskin & I are calling on the DOJ to appoint a special counsel.
