Jared Kushner Called to Face the Music

Meanwhile, Democrats on the House Oversight Committee already previously released a report alleging Trump's businesses received millions in foreign payments while he was in office. Eric Trump, executive vice president of The Trump Organization, dismissed the report's finding as a "joke" and said that all the company's profits from its business with foreign governments were voluntarily donated to the United States Treasury.

On Tuesday, Raksin, a ranking member of the Committee on Oversight and Accountability, and Garcia, a ranking member of the Subcommittee on National Security, the Border, and Foreign Affairs, sent a letter asking leading Republicans on the House Oversight Committee to hold a hearing over Kushner's "apparent influence peddling and quid pro quos for actions he undertook to reshape U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East."

"We write to urge you to convene a hearing regarding Jared Kushner's apparent influence peddling and quid pro quo deals involving investments in exchange for official actions and to examine the resulting threats to our national security. Our request comes in light of allegations that Jared Kushner is pursuing new foreign business deals, just as Donald Trump becomes the presumptive Republican nominee for the presidency," the two Democrats wrote in the letter to Oversight Committee Chair Republican James Comer of Kentucky and Republican Representative Glenn Grothman of Wisconsin, who chairs a subcommittee of the panel.

The letter continues to note Comer has previously indicated that Republicans would also have questions for Trump's family members, including Kushner as Comer "conceded that Mr. Kushner's conduct 'crossed the line of ethics' and promised that the Oversight Committee would investigate Mr. Kushner."
