Intelligence Dispute Centers on Kushner

“It was a discussion last year between two foreign nationals about Iran, not an unusual topic for American spies to study,” the New York Times reports.

“But an intercept of that communication, collected by a foreign spy service and given to the United States, has now become a flashpoint within the intelligence community and between the administration and Congress.”

“The reason is a single name that came up in the discussion: Jared Kushner, President Trump’s son-in-law.”

Wall Street Journal: “It couldn’t be determined which country the foreign nationals are from or what they discussed about Kushner. But the connection to Kushner sheds further light on the top-secret whistleblower complaint that bureaucratically stalled within Gabbard’s agency for eight months and was kept locked in a safe until it reached Congress in heavily redacted form last week.”
