Rep. Meeks: ‘It’s Clear’ that Kushner Was ‘Trying to Get Some Money from Russia’

EXCERPT:

MEEKS: “Well, I’m implying that if you just start looking at the dots, this is why I’m glad we have an independent counselor and prosecutor that are now looking at the scenario to see if there are any connecting dots because it just seems to me that Russia has been in the mainstream of all of the Trump administrators and Trump individuals within his campaign. There seems to be some kind of connection, and Donald Trump does not want to show his income taxes to see whether or not there’s been any money there, and it’s clear that Kushner — Mr. Kushner has also had some dealings and was trying to get some money from Russia, so there’s just a lot of things that all just seems to — the air seems to be all around Russia. Why? We need this independent prosecutor to go do what he's doing as well as an independent commission so that we can figure out what’s going on. There’s no question that the Russians have played a role in our elections, this past election.”
