Ethics lawyer yells on MS NOW as Jared Kushner enters 'World Series of corruption'
A former White House ethics lawyer yelled on MS NOW while discussing President Donald Trump's son-in-law, Jared Kushner, as he entered what the lawyer described as the "World Series of corruption."
Over the weekend, The New York Times reported that Kushner has been soliciting funds for his investment firm while conducting diplomatic business on behalf of the U.S. government. Kushner is seeking to raise $5 billion from countries in the Middle East such as Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Qatar, according to the report. This is happening at a time when Kushner is working with representatives for these countries on international issues, like releasing the hostages in Gaza and negotiating a settlement for the war in Iran.
Noem Eisen, a former ethics lawyer in the Obama administration, said Kushner was playing in the "World Series of corruption" by pursuing these deals simultaneously.
"The guy has got billions of dollars in interest in the region. Now he wants $5 billion more while he's the envoy for the United States?!" Eisen shouted. "That won't wash."
Eisen noted that he wouldn't let Barack Obama refinance the mortgage on his personal home while he was president because Obama was technically regulating the banking industry. Kushner appears to be taking the exact opposite approach, Eisen argued.
