Former DNC Chairman, Howard Dean, pretty confident that Jared Kushner will soon also be indicted.

Courtesy of The Hill: 

Former Democratic National Committee (DNC) chairman Howard Dean said he thinks there's a good chance President Trump's son-in-law, White House adviser Jared Kushner, will be indicted. 

“I expect there’s a good likelihood Jared Kushner will be indicted for money laundering,” Dean said Sunday on MSNBC. 

“And then we’re going to have to see how far the Russian involvement goes. This is serious business. These people are undermining our democracy.” 

Dean said it appears special counsel Robert Mueller is investigating whether President Trump "engaged with a foreign power in order to get where he got." 

"That's a very serious matter for this country," Dean said. 

Dean also said he thinks Mueller is working his way up from the bottom. The former DNC chairman expects that eventually "either the Flynns are going to plead guilty or they're going to ... cooperate for some leniency." 

"And the next step is going to be the Trump family itself," he said.

Now you might consider simply dismissing Dean's statement as wishful thinking, after all he is not an investigative journalist or prosecutor, but then there is this recent revelation courtesy of The Daily Beast:  

The so-called Paradise Papers were leaked to the German newspaper Süddeutsche Zeitung, the same publication that obtained the “Panama Papers.” Süddeutsche Zeitung shared the new documents with the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists, which led a global effort of 96 media organizations from 67 countries to pore through the records. The findings were published on Sunday. The documents show that many of the wealthy individuals Trump brought into his administration have worked to legally store their money in offshore havens where they would be free from taxation in the United States. Trump has promised repeatedly to “drain the swamp,” in condemning the idea that well-connected individuals in Washington, D.C., preserve their own interests at the expense of the rest of the country.

Top White House adviser Jared Kushner, Trump’s son-in-law, is also implicated. The documents reveal that Russian tech leader Yuri Milner invested $850,000 in a startup called Cadre that Kushner co-founded in 2014. 

Milner has long had a reputation in Silicon Valley as a big-league investor; his firm at one point owned major chunks of both Facebook and Twitter. But Milner was never considered particularly Kremlin-connected. These new documents call that reputation into question. The investing arm of Gazprom, the state-backed energy company, financed a share of Facebook worth up to $1 billion; a Kremlin-owned bank invested $191 million into a Milner firm, and some of that money was then injected into Twitter. 

Despite Milner’s investment in his startup, Kushner said in July that he told the Senate Intelligence Committee in a closed-door meeting that he never “relied on Russian funds to finance my business activities in the private sector.”

Well gee, apparently that's not true.

Also keep in mind that Kushner was in attendance at that Trump Tower meeting where Junior offered to change policies in exchange for dirt on Hillary Clinton. 

So would it be any surprise if Robert Mueller indicted Jared Kushner sometime soon?

Nope, but it would be a surprise if he didn't.

    Texas Church Gunman Walked Up and Down Aisles, Shooting as People Crawled Out of Pews

    A camera captured the massacre inside First Baptist Church that saw nearly everyone inside shot or killed.

    Galen Jansky, a former Wilson County constable who said he spoke to Trippitt, told The Daily Beast that the video shows Kelley began his attack by shooting two people outside the church at approximately 11:30 a.m.

    Kelley then fired at the doors while nearly 50 people were listening to a sermon, Jansky said, causing them to take cover in the pews. Once inside, Kelley sprayed bullets into pews as he walked up the center aisle towards the altar, according to Jansky. When Kelley reached the altar, he lingered, then turned around and walked back down the aisle, shooting into each row of pews on both sides as congregants tried to hide.

    Kelley killed 26 people, including at least 12 children, and wounded 20 others. One of the wounded is John Holcomb, who was likely filming the service behind the pews, Janksy said. Holcomb’s parents, his wife, Crystal, and three of his children were killed.

    Trump’s Bet on the Saudis Looks Increasingly Dangerous, and the $110 Billion Payoff Looks Unlikely

    Major interest groups in the family have seen their power centers stripped away. Their fortunes are being seized by the state. The young prince is making a lot of enemies.

    The Trump administration has tied the United States to the impetuous young crown prince of Saudi Arabia and seems to be quite oblivious to the dangers. But they are growing every day.

    Saudi Arabia's King Salman and his favorite son, Crown Prince Muhammad bin Salman, have broken with the traditional patterns of consensual politics in the royal family, and the results are likely to be a much less stable kingdom with increasingly impulsive and erratic policies.

    A purge is now under way that includes imprisonment of top princes (albeit in a former luxury hotel), the confiscation of assets, and at least two mysterious deaths.

    ...At least one prominent royal reportedly has died in mysterious circumstances. Prince Abdelaziz bin Fahd, the playboy favorite son of King Fahd, is rumored to have been shot while resisting arrest. He has been critical of the ouster of former Crown Prince Muhammad bin Nayef. Another prince died in a helicopter crash near the Yemeni border.

    All of this suggests conspiracies and power plays far outside the bounds of normal Saudi politics.

      ...In the Saudi version of Game of Thobes, the 32-year-old Bin Salman shows that he is willing to throw the entire region into jeopardy to wear the royal gown. His actions have already all but destroyed the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC); Yemen can no longer be referred to as a functioning state; Egypt is a ticking time bomb; and now Lebanon may erupt.

      Why the Texas church shooting isn't being called terrorism

      In short, it all comes down to the suspect's motive.

      Federal law defines terrorism as the "unlawful use of force and violence against persons or property to intimidate or coerce a government, the civilian population, or any segment thereof, in furtherance of political or social objectives." In other words, if authorities can't find a political or ideological agenda behind the attack, then it doesn't meet the standard for terrorism.

    President Bill Clinton took a jab at President Donald Trump in a Monday speech, becoming the third president in three weeks to implicitly take a shot at him.

    Speaking at Georgetown University in a speech marking the 25-year anniversary of his electoral victory in 1992, Clinton blasted the president for his tendency to "badmouth" others. He did not mention Trump by name in the comment.

    "I don't believe your ability to badmouth someone else is evidence of authenticity," Clinton said to applause from the crowd. "I don't."

    I think a lot of the Trump team will be found guilty of financial crimes and it's a good day indeed when a lot of dirty American oligarchs get their long overdue comeuppance. I don't think Trump ever imagined what a microscope every aspect of he and his associates lives would be under when he wanted so badly to be POTUS. Too bad for Melania that she didn't just get out before the inauguration, as she has planned on doing, because after Trump's finances get a going-over there won't be much left for a decent settlement.

    Where the alt-right wants to take America — with or without Trump

    If Donald Trump did not exist, it would be necessary to prevent him.

    Trump’s electoral victory one year ago this week was not merely his own, nor that of the befuddled party that relinquished its nomination to him. It was also a triumph for the dark tangle of forces we’ve come to know as the alt-right. Long before the 2016 campaign, the alt-right was already gathering strength and allies; it simply needed a standard-bearer. Then there was Trump, a leader with enough star power and authoritarian charisma to grant his alt-right supporters visibility and stature, to lower the social costs of open bigotry, to give energy to the movement’s underlying vision.
