(from https://medium.com/s/story/in-death-khashoggi-exposes-the-corruption-of-kushner-and-trump-236c85e659aa)

". . . With respect to the (Khashoggi) assassination, Trump and Kushner both have skin in the game. Saudi Arabia was the first state visit Trump made as president, a trip organized and pushed for by Kushner, who is chummy with MbS and has acted as the de facto ambassador to Saudi Arabia. Khashoggi was not banned from Saudi media for his criticisms of MbS, but rather for his criticisms of Donald Trump. More importantly, U.S. intelligence knew of a plan to lure Khashoggi back to arrest him, so the president and the de facto ambassador to Saudi Arabia must have also known. If they knew and did not share the information with Khashoggi, they are liable. Per the Washington Post:Intelligence agencies have a ‘duty to warn’ people who might be kidnapped, seriously injured or killed, according to a directive signed in 2015. The obligation applies regardless of whether the person is a U.S. citizen. Khashoggi was a U.S. resident. . . Why exactly are Trump and Kushner going to the mat for MbS? Is it to advance U.S. interests—or their own? . . . Last October, Jared Kushner paid an unannounced visit to Riyadh, where it’s reported that he stayed up until the wee hours talking “strategy” with the crown prince, apparently his new BFF. He allegedly gave MbS an “enemies list” culled from the classified president’s daily brief, which MbS seems to have used the following month to purge disloyal relatives from government and take their money. Also last October, Kushner’s company received a $57 million loan from Fortress Investment Group, which was recently purchased by SoftFund, a Saudi investment concern, to bail out its troubled property at One Journal Square in Jersey City. (A larger and more widely-reported loan, to bail out the troubled property at 666 Fifth Avenue, came the following summer, via Qatar.). . ."

The Book . . .

. . . is better. . . 

(http://theweek.com/speedreads/746587/stephen-colbert-some-ideas-saving-world-from-trumps-buttonsize-fixation - Stephen Colbert)
". . . Trump . . . reportedly did not really want himself to win the election . . . neither did his wife. "Really, Melania cried on Election Night? That is the first thing we have in common," he (Colbert) said. . ."This proves once again that when it comes to Donald Trump, everything is exactly what you thought it was," Colbert said after running down some other snippets. "His entire schtick is just trying to convince you you're crazy for seeing what's obvious — which makes sense, I mean that's basically how you sell luxury real estate." But according to Stephen Bannon, the Russia collusion is what you thought it was, too, Colbert said. "So he thinks [Paul] Manafort, Don Jr., and [Jared] Kushner did something treasonous, unpatriotic, and bad s--t. Coincidentally, those are also their Secret Service code names.". . . "

". . . Threats of “imminent” legal action against former White House chief strategist Steve Bannon from President Donald Trump’s lawyers could have unintended consequences that would hurt the Trump administration, says a national security lawyer. . .The letter to Bannon followed the release on Wednesday of new excerpts from an upcoming book about the Trump presidency by author Martin Wolff. Among other things, Bannon is quoted in the book calling Donald Trump Jr.’s meeting with a Russian lawyer in Trump Tower in June 2016 “treasonous” and “unpatriotic.” Trump Jr. met with the lawyer after being promised dirt on his father's presidential rival, Hillary Clinton. . . In a statement late Wednesday, Trump’s lawyer Charles J. Harder, of the firm Harder Mirell & Abrams, said a legal notice has been sent to Bannon accusing him of “defamation by libel and slander, and breach of his written confidentiality and non-disparagement agreement.”. . ."

. . . on Charles Kushner, father of Senior White House Adviser to Donald Trump, Jared Kushner . . .
(from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Kushner)
". . . In the summer of 2004, Kushner was fined $508,900 by the Federal Election Commission for contributing to political campaigns in the names of his partnerships when he lacked authorization to do so.[9] In 2005, following an investigation by the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of New Jersey, U.S. Attorney Chris Christie negotiated a plea agreement with Kushner, under which he pleaded guilty to 18 counts of illegal campaign contributions, tax evasion, and witness tampering. . . The witness-tampering charge arose from Kushner's act of retaliation against William Schulder, his sister Esther's husband, who was cooperating with federal investigators; Kushner hired a prostitute to seduce his brother-in-law, arranged to record an encounter between the two, and had the tape sent to his sister. . . Kushner was sentenced to two years in prison[12] and served 14 months at Federal Prison Camp, Montgomery in Alabama before being sent to a halfway house in Newark, New Jersey to complete his sentence. . . He was released from prison on August 25, 2006. . .As a result of his convictions, Kushner was disbarred from practicing law in New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania. . ."

(from https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2016/nov/18/jared-kushner-harvard-donald-trump-son-in-law by Daniel Golden)
". . . New Jersey real estate developer Charles Kushner had pledged $2.5m to Harvard University not long before his son Jared was admitted to the prestigious Ivy League school, which at the time accepted about one of every nine applicants. (Nowadays, it only takes one out of 20.) . . . I also quoted administrators at Jared’s high school, who described him as a less-than-stellar student and expressed dismay at Harvard’s decision. . . “There was no way anybody in the administrative office of the school thought he would on the merits get into Harvard,’’ a former official at the Frisch school in Paramus, New Jersey, told me. “His GPA [grade point average] did not warrant it, his SAT scores did not warrant it. We thought, for sure, there was no way this was going to happen. Then, lo and behold, Jared was accepted. It was a little bit disappointing because there were at the time other kids we thought should really get in on the merits, and they did not.’’. . ."
