Unbelievable: Trump Senior Adviser Sought Private Line With Kremlin Before Inauguration

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


When the news broke last week that a senior adviser with the Trump administration was under scrutiny, most of us had a feeling it would be son-in-law/senior adviser/power-behind-the-throne, Jared Kushner.

We were right.

It was revealed this week that Kushner was, indeed, in the crosshairs of the FBI.

Earlier Friday, more details emerged.

A new report says Kushner spoke with a top Russian official in December, in an attempt to establish a private line of communication between the Trump transition team and the Kremlin.

The president’s son-in-law and senior adviser inquired about using Russian diplomatic facilities for the communications, apparently to shield the talks, U.S. officials briefed on intelligence reports told The Washington Post.

Russian ambassador to the U.S. Sergei Kislyak told his superiors that Kushner floated the idea during a meeting at Trump Tower on Dec. 1 or 2, according to the Post, which cited intercepts of Russian communications reviewed by U.S. officials.

Why would the man who is basically the President-by-proxy want private communications between the transition team and the Kremlin?

Nothing suspicious here, at all.

So who else was at that meeting?

Michael Flynn.

The FBI is interested in the details of Kushner’s meeting with Kislyak, a meeting that the White House first disclosed in March.

Officials told the Post that knowledge of the discussion came because of communication surveillance on the Russians, not on the meeting or U.S. citizens.

Kislyak reportedly balked at the suggestion. Letting an American use Russian communication equipment would likely cause some security issues for both sides.

Kushner hasn’t been charged with anything and for the time being, he’s simply under scrutiny by the FBI, as they continue the investigation into potential collusion between Trump’s campaign team and Russia.

Kushner also raised some red flags when it was discovered that he failed to disclose communications with Kislyak, as well as Russian bank executives on his security clearance paperwork.

President Trump, himself, may be clean as a whistle, but even his most ardent supporters have to admit he’s surrounded himself with a lot of shady characters, engaging in some really sketchy behavior.

      You could make the Trump surrounding himself with shady characters, still leaving him squeaky clean case. You also have to put the shoe on the other foot when it comes to the intelligence agency’s, where they are inundated with shady characters (leaking and putting out miss characterized statements) whose agenda is nefarious at best and at worst compromising the constitution and squeaky clean citizens to their detriment.
      The reason for the direct line may have been to prevent the leakers from doing anymore damage to this nation with their false characterization’s of the Russian/Trump relationship in the first place. Had the leaks and attempts at hacking into the Trump administration not been nefariously instituted at the get go and abused in the first place by the intelligence agency’s … that next step of having a conversation at looking into a possible way to protect the newly elected President against these bad players would never have needed to take place.
      Who would not agree the President and his conversations with world leaders need to have some privacy in order to hash out agreements that are beneficial to both party’s. The give and take in the beginning always sounds much different in the beginning in order to move the agreement into a position that ultimately works. So there is some speculative words or statements that are not binding in nature in the beginning as two party’s hammer out what will be finalized once it’s all said and done and is acceptable for public consumption and applicable to each country’s constitution.
      Think “Letter of Intent” and understand how many evolution of changes are made or considered before a final contract is settled upon by both party’s.
      Children wouldn’t have a clue as to what I’m speaking of here … but I guarantee you all the grownups in the room do. And Trump is a grownup.
      I would like to say the same for the intelligence apparatus’s in this country but my instinct is tracking on teenagers playing at computer games where they are concerned at this point.
