Federal prosecutors in New York are examining a $285 million loan that Deutsche Bank AG made one month before election day last year to the real-estate company run by the family of Jared Kushner, according to a person familiar with the matter.
Prosecutors from the Brooklyn U.S. attorneys office issued a document request in mid-November to Kushner Cos., asking for contracts and other information pertaining to the loan from the bank, this person said.
Chris Taylor, a spokeswoman for Kushner Cos., said the company has cooperated and will continue to cooperate with any reasonable request for information. A spokesman for Deutsche Bank declined to comment.
A spokesman for the Brooklyn U.S. attorneys office said he couldnt confirm or deny the existence of any investigation.

which will lead to a messy divorce.

I think this is a big deal because they got caught using this as a way for investors to get influence with Trump and using Jared's name in the advertising with White House

So even if Trump or his henchmen fire Mueller, these other investigations/ prosecutions will still go on.
