Jared Kushner didn’t disclose his business ties with George Soros, Peter Thiel, and Goldman Sachs, or that he owes $1 billion in loans, The Wall Street Journal reported on Tuesday.
The top White House adviser and son-in-law of Trump failed to identify his part ownership of Cadre, a real-estate startup he founded, which links him to the Goldman Sachs Group and the mega-investors George Soros and Peter Thiel, sources told The Journal.
Jamie Gorelick, an attorney for Kushner, told The Journal in a statement that Cadre was part of BFPS Ventures LLC, a company Kushner owns and identified in his government financial-disclosure forms.
Gorelick also said a revised version of Kushner’s form that includes Cadre would be made available once ethics officials have looked at it.
Kushner also failed to identify debt of more than $1 billion from 20 lenders and personal guarantees to pay more than $300 million of that, according to The Journal.

I am shocked, shocked, that a Trump official and relative has not adequately, properly and legally disclosed his conflicts of interest. And his lawyer, Jaime Gorelick? Wasn’t she part of the Bill Clinton Justice Department?
