Someone I know well worked at the NY Observer when Kushner took over. He characterized the Boy Blunder as the single dumbest person he had ever met. Nothing Jared has done since has caused me to question that judgement.
Word of the day, kakistocracy, rule by the worst people. In January 2029, all the Middle East governments will be pulling their money out of Affinity Partners despite its “impeccable” performance.
You saved the best for last - and so symbolic of how Kushner and his wealthy buddies operate: he bought stolen land! Whether he vetted the deal for any corruption or just barged through and said, "This is mine!" is unclear but who cares? The Albanian people care, but as far as the buyers of Sazan Island are concerned, they knew the deal was great but they thought they were scamming the buyer. Ha ha, the buyer is sailing around the island in his new yacht.
Despite his “focus on peace deals” with everyone he (and Witless) always have time for wheeling and dealing. You can never have enough pals in the ME, Russia. It pays to have friends. I hope they both end up in prison but they won’t. Nauseating.
Another example of how corruption and greed are the hallmarks of this regime, seasoned with outright meanness and narcissism. Add a large dose of disdain for our constitution (or any laws) and lesser people, and you have a picture of the Regime, the Republican party in its current incarnation (not the party of Lincoln, TR) and what they are doing to the American Experiment and enlightenment thinking.
The amount of cognitive dissonance and denial is unmatched in the modern history of the world.
Anyone who believes anything out of the Trump White House, or what's left of it, has to be either dumb ass a rock, or complicit. My vote is for the latter.
Judd, Thank You! Peter, Stuart great points! Little j and Little t fit the same mold just Stupid, Crooked, and Narcissistic… eventually they will crash & burn.. let’s not let them take us with them. Mid Terms are the last hope!
"According to the prosecutors, Shehu used forged ownership documents to acquire land on the peninsula, which he then sold to Kushner’s development group for $120 million."
Someday, I hope. we'll learn what transpires at these meetings and "hours of negotiations" that Kushner and Witkoff have with the likes of Putin and Netanyahu.
I suspect, after the initial exchange of pleasantries about clothes, watches, real estate developments, etc., Kushner and Witkoff sit there . . . listening.
Get on those phones amerika… pretend you will be saved by (?), keep your brains and your eyes in lock mode. Keep pretending that you haven’t been taken over by a mafia, and, just so you can claim emotional devastation years from now, take pictures of your children today so you don’t forget who to blame for their destruction. YOU are to blame !

Bro's got that Sadim touch, the reverse Midas touch. Everything turns to sh*t.
It runs in the family...

Sure hope so

The Palestinian people are not amused.

Kushner is the tyrump's idea of a smart person. That is not an endorsement anyone should ever want.

Ya gotta give him credit for being consistent...

Excellent reporting, as always.

Then, on to the next fiasco!
