$2 billion from Saudi Arabia, US Democrats demand investigation into Kushner's business dealings

$2 billion from Saudi Arabia, US Democrats demand investigation into

After investigating Republicans' "use of influence" against Biden, House Democrats are now demanding that they subject Donald Trump's son-in-law, Jared Kushner, to scrutiny over his foreign business dealings.

Republicans have spent six months in the Biden impeachment inquiry digging into Joe's ties to Hunter Biden's dubious business deals and now appear unlikely to move forward with a House vote.

And now Democrats are working to retaliate after months of focusing on the Biden family.

Democrats alleged that Kushner and Grenell "openly used their relationship with Edi Rama, the Prime Minister of Albania, from whom then-President Trump received unconstitutional payments while serving as Commander-in-Chief."

A Democratic report revealed that Rama, his advisers and former Infrastructure Minister Damian Gjiknuri spent about $6,000 to stay at the Trump Hotel in D.C., then owned by the former president.

One of the proposed projects is said to be the development of an island off Albania into a luxury tourist destination known as Sazan. The island was used as a secret military base for submarines during the Cold War.

Another is a planned luxury hotel, 1,500 residential units and museum in Belgrade, Serbia. It would be on the site of the former headquarters of the Yugoslav Army, which was destroyed in 1999 by NATO bombing, one of Serbia's parliament and Kushner's company told the Times.

Grenell has worked on the disputes between Serbia and Kosovo.

The projects involve land currently controlled by governments, meaning they will need the state's signature on the projects.

"This Committee cannot claim to be ``investigating efforts by foreign nationals'' to target and coerce family members of senior U.S. officials by offering money or other benefits in exchange for certain actions," while continuing to ignore these issues," the lawmakers wrote.

A third project in Albania would build several hotels and hundreds of villas on the Zvernec peninsula, a coastal area in southern Albania, part of the tourist community known as Vlorë.
