13. New York regulator asks Deutsche, other banks about Kushner loans

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-trump-kushner/new-york-regulator-asks-deutsche-other-banks-about-kushner-loans-source-idUSKCN1GC2UF

A State AG is looking into this. This would not be pardonable.

[BigmanPigman]

18. And Ivanka advises his mother on their dealings with finances.

Both families launder money through Deutsche Bank. Kushner's dad told Jared to tell the Moron to fire Comey so that he wouldn't get too close to the family businesses.

No wonder Jared wanted to reform prisons...Daddy was in one and he will be returning with his son now, and his in-laws (Meet the Fuckers).

[malaise]

23. I can't keep up

[bronxiteforever]

28. Its impossible to keep up with these disasters

[moondust]

22. Isn't that why

Kushner has been meeting with foreign officials alone--so there wouldn't be any witnesses to what he was doing? (Rachel is covering that now. )

Grifters gonna grift.

27. From the NYT Story (paywalled)

EDIT

Joshua Harris, a founder of Apollo Global Management, was advising Trump administration officials on infrastructure policy. During that period, he met on multiple occasions with Jared Kushner, President Trump’s son-in-law and senior adviser, said three people familiar with the meetings. Among other things, the two men discussed a possible White House job for Mr. Harris. The job never materialized, but in November, Apollo lent $184 million to Mr. Kushner’s family real estate firm, Kushner Companies. The loan was to refinance the mortgage on a Chicago skyscraper.

Even by the standards of Apollo, one of the world’s largest private equity firms, the previously unreported transaction with the Kushners was a big deal: It was triple the size of the average property loan made by Apollo’s real estate lending arm, securities filings show.

It was one of the largest loans Kushner Companies received last year. An even larger loan came from Citigroup, which lent the firm and one of its partners $325 million to help finance a group of office buildings in Brooklyn.

That loan was made in the spring of 2017, shortly after Mr. Kushner met in the White House with Citigroup’s chief executive, Michael L. Corbat, according to people briefed on the meeting. The two men talked about financial and trade policy and did not discuss Mr. Kushner’s family business, one person said.
