Democrats begin 'salivating' over Trump hit list as they place Saudi ties and crypto empire in their sights Sign up HERE for the DC Insider Newsletter- our guide to what's rocking Washington, rattling the White House and setting tongues wagging on the Hill Jared Kushner and the Trump sons' crypto empire sit atop the hit list for Democrats plotting to probe President Trump's family if they seize either chamber of Congress this November.
亚利桑那州民主党参议员鲁本·加列戈是2028年总统大选的潜在候选人,他告诉《每日邮报》,特朗普的女婿贾里德·库什纳是他最想调查的人之一。
Senator Ruben Gallego, an Arizona Democrat who is a potential 2028 presidential hopeful, told the Daily Mail that Trump's son-in-law, Jared Kushner, is at the top of his list of people to investigate.
加列戈对《每日邮报》表示:“总统的女婿正在与沙特阿拉伯进行谈判。他代表我们进行谈判,同时在沙特也有客户。”
'The President's son-in-law is negotiating with Saudi Arabia. He's negotiating on behalf of us, and also having clients in Saudi Arabia,' Gallego told the Daily Mail.
据CNN报道,库什纳的私募股权投资公司Affinity Partners于2021年从沙特公共投资基金(PIF)获得了20亿美元的投资。
Kushner's private equity firm, Affinity Partners, secured a $2 billion investment from the Saudi Public Investment Fund (PIF) in 2021, per CNN.
与此同时,他还指出,“他们推高了所有人的生活成本……你根本买不起房”,并提到“油价正在飙升”,所指正是特朗普政府。
All the while, he added, 'they've driven up the cost of living for everybody... you can't buy a home' and 'gas prices are going to the roof,' in reference to the Trump administration.
多年来,民主党一直试图调查库什纳与海湾地区的资金往来,但他对所有请求都予以拒绝。今年4月,现任众议院司法委员会民主党领袖的拉斯金表示,库什纳“不可能同时既是外交官,又是沙特王室的金融棋子”。
Democrats have spent years trying to investigate Kushner's Gulf money, but he has stonewalled every request. In April, Raskin, now top Democrat on House Judiciary, said he could not 'both be a diplomat and a financial pawn of the Saudi monarchy at the same time.
在随后的国会会期中,民主党并未就其商业活动向库什纳发出传票,但他在出席国会听证时,自愿讨论了1月6日的国会大厦袭击事件。
Kushner was not subpoenaed by Democrats in the following Congress regarding his business dealings, but did voluntarily discuss the January 6th Capitol Attack during an appearance before lawmakers.
今年早些时候,众议院外交事务委员会的共和党人还阻止了一项议案,该议案旨在就伊朗战争问题传唤库什纳,以及特朗普的其他特使史蒂夫·维特科夫和国务卿马可·卢比奥。
康涅狄格州的理查德·布卢门撒尔是参议院调查常设小组委员会的民主党领袖,他已将World Liberty Financial公司列为目标。
Republicans on the House Foreign Affairs Committee also blocked a measure earlier this year to bring Kushner, as well as fellow Trump Envoy Steve Witkoff and Secretary of State Marco Rubio, in over the Iran War.
贾里德·库什纳作为美国和平特使,同时也是唐纳德·特朗普总统的女婿。如果今年11月民主党掌控国会参众两院,他可能成为国会调查的对象。2025年,沙特王储穆罕默德·本·萨勒曼在利雅得热情接待了唐纳德·特朗普总统,这是特朗普第二任期内首次出访。倘若民主党掌控众议院或参议院的传票签发权,特朗普总统的儿子小唐纳德·特朗普的商业活动也可能受到严格审查。
这家加密货币公司是由埃里克·特朗普、小唐纳德·特朗普以及特使威特科夫的两个儿子扎克和亚历克斯·威特科夫共同创立的。
Connecticut's Richard Blumenthal, the top Democrat on the Senate's Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, has World Liberty Financial in his sights. Jared Kushner, the United States Special Envoy for Peace, and President Donald Trump's son-in-law, could be the subject of congressional investigations if Democrats take control of either chamber on Capitol Hill after November President Donald Trump was welcomed by Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman to Riyadh in 2025, which the president visited during the first foreign trip of his second term Donald Trump Jr., one of President Donald Trump's children could see his business dealings scrutinized next year if Democrats hold subpoena powers in either the House or the Senate The crypto firm was founded by Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr alongside Zach and Alex Witkoff, sons of Special Envoy Witkoff.
布卢门撒尔自称是该小组委员会“有望担任主席的人选”,他还希望调查“政府当局与全球最大的稳定币发行商泰达公司之间的财务联系”。
Blumenthal, who called himself the subcommittee's 'hopeful chairman', also wants to examine 'the financial ties between the administration and Tether', the world's largest stablecoin issuer.
坎托-菲茨杰拉德是一家金融服务与投资公司,此前由商务部长霍华德·卢特尼克执掌。该公司与泰达公司存在关联,而后者则被视作洗钱者梦寐以求的“理想货币”。
Cantor-Fitzgerald, the financial services and investment firm formerly led by Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, has ties to Tether, which has been characterized as a 'dream currency' for money launderers.
根据今年早些时候参议院银行委员会民主党成员发出的信函,尽管卢特尼克已出售了在原先任职公司的股份,但他的子女仍能从一家获得泰达公司贷款的信托基金中获益。
Although Lutnick has divested his stake in his former company, his children still benefit from a trust that has received a loan from Tether, per a letter from Democrats on the Senate Banking Committee sent earlier this year.
布卢门撒尔声称,与美元挂钩的泰达币“帮助伊朗在战争期间规避制裁”,还助长了“洗钱及枪支走私活动”。泰达公司发言人对《每日邮报》表示,公司欢迎立法机构的监督。
Blumenthal claims Tether's dollar-pegged token is 'enabling Iran to evade sanctions during the war' and has aided 'money laundering and gun trafficking'. A spokesperson for Tether told the Daily Mail it welcomes oversight from lawmakers.
“无论国会的组成情况如何,我们的方针都不会改变,”该公司公关负责人戴维·普尔舒什塔里说道。“我们与70个国家的340多家执法机构保持合作,已协助全球超过2900起调查工作,其中涉及美国执法部门的案件超过1600起;我们还帮助冻结了逾50亿美元的非法资产。”据路透社报道,如果民主党赢得参众两院控制权,便将拥有传唤权,这很可能引发与特朗普的捐赠者及商业伙伴之间的漫长法律纠纷。
'Our approach doesn't change with the makeup of Congress,' said David Pourshoushtari, the company's publicist. 'We work with over 340 law enforcement agencies in 70 countries, have supported more than 2,900 investigations globally, including over 1,600 involving U.S. law enforcement, and have helped freeze more than $5 billion in illicit assets.' Winning either chamber would hand Democrats subpoena power, potentially triggering lengthy legal battles with Trump donors and business partners, Reuters reported.
亚利桑那州民主党人鲁本·加列戈有望成为2028年总统候选人,他表示如果明年民主党掌权,库什纳将是他最想调查的对象。康涅狄格州民主党人理查德·布卢门撒尔明年有可能领导参议院调查委员会,他周三指出,如果获得机会,他打算对泰达币及世界自由金融这两家金融企业进行调查。共和党人则坚称民主党不会获得这样的机会。负责共和党参议院竞选事务的全国共和党参议院委员会主席蒂姆·斯科特对记者表示,他预计共和党将保住多数席位,甚至有可能进一步扩大优势。
Arizona Democrat Ruben Gallego, a potential 2028 presidential contender, says Kushner is at the top of his list as to who should be investigated if Democrats are in control next year Connecticut Democrat Richard Blumenthal, who could lead an investigatory committee in the Senate next year, noted Wednesday that Tether and World Liberty Financial are fiscal firms he wants to examine if given the chance Republicans insist Democrats won't get the chance. NRSC chairman Tim Scott, who runs the GOP's Senate campaign arm, told reporters he expects his party to hold its majority and possibly expand it.
密苏里州共和党人乔什·霍利周二对《每日邮报》称,他很惊讶民主党人居然“还没有直接公布听证会日程安排”。
Missouri Republican Josh Hawley told the Daily Mail on Tuesday he was surprised Democrats hadn't 'already practically sent out schedules, hearing schedules'.
“他们很可能已经把证人名单列好了……他们迫不及待想要展开调查,不过我认为选民们对此毫无兴趣,”他说道。
'They probably have lined up their witnesses... they are just salivating to do that, which voters I think have zero interest in,' he said.
《每日邮报》已联系世界自由金融、小唐纳德·特朗普以及贾里德·库什纳的发言人寻求置评。
The Daily Mail reached out to World Liberty Financial, Donald Trump Jr, and a representative for Jared Kushner for comment.
不过,库什纳周五在X平台上发布了一条意味深长的留言:虽然他一直对那些关于自己工作的“虚假且误导性的报道”置之不理,但今后也会“时不时作出回应”。
But Kushner posted a cryptic comment to X on Friday saying while he's ignored 'false and misleading stories' about his work he will choose to respond 'from time to time.'
