Jared Kushner was supposed to be the ethical one, working unpaid to broker Middle East peace—yet he’s somehow become a billionaire while using his White House access for personal gain. Trump overrode security concerns about Kushner’s foreign entanglements to put him in charge of diplomacy, and he’s been cashing in ever since. This is the…
A U.S. Senator advocated for cutting firefighting aircraft inspections at the exact moment his former company was failing those same safety checks—proving he used public office to rig rules for private profit.
