Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner are once again facing scrutiny over their financial dealings, as Democrats reportedly compile a dossier on the Trump family’s activities while serving in the White House. According to a report from the New Republic, the dossier – believed to be over 400 pages long – is being gathered by House Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) and his team.
The article cites a report by Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW), which analyzed the couple’s official financial disclosures. According to the report, Ivanka and Jared earned between $172 million and $640 million from outside sources during their time in the White House.
A significant portion of this income was linked to the Trump Hotel, located just minutes away from the White House. While critics have framed this income as evidence of corruption, others point out that the couple’s earnings were not unusual for individuals in their financial bracket.
However, the focus on the couple’s finances has sparked criticism from supporters who accuse Democrats of using these investigations to damage their credibility and influence the 2024 presidential race.
A source familiar with the investigation told the New Republic that Democrats are “keeping their powder dry” for a more strategic moment during the upcoming presidential campaign. While no official investigation has been announced, it’s clear that Democrats are gathering information in case they decide to target the Trump family in the future.
Meanwhile, the New Republic article also raises questions about Jared Kushner’s business activities, particularly his involvement with Cadre – a real estate technology company. However, these questions are part of a broader narrative that seeks to cast the Trump family in a negative light.
Many supporters of the Trumps see these investigations as politically motivated attempts to discredit and undermine their contributions during their time in the White House. Instead of focusing on their efforts to support economic growth and job creation, the Left continues to dig for any potential wrongdoing.
However, while Democrats have kept their distance from any formal investigation for now, the House Oversight Committee recently published bank records that potentially contradict President Joe Biden’s previous statements about not being involved in his family’s business deals. This revelation highlights the ongoing partisan investigations, with Republicans focused on the Biden family while Democrats potentially build a case against the Trumps.
As the 2024 election looms, it seems anything and everything is fair game for both sides as they attempt to maintain control in Washington D.C. In the meantime, Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner will likely continue to face scrutiny over their financial dealings, as their contributions are overshadowed by politically driven investigations.
