Could Jared Kushner be forced to testify about the $2billion he got from Saudi Arabia when his father-in-law left office? Democrats demand a probe into Trump family's finances while GOP tries to impeach Biden

After Republicans' 'influence peddling' probe into the Bidens, Oversight Democrats are now demanding they subject Donald Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner to scrutiny over his foreign business deals. 

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

And now Democrats are working to extract revenge after months of focus on the Biden family. 

A new letter from top Democrat Jamie Raskin, D-Md., signals Democrats are likely to put Kushner in their crosshairs if they take back the House in the November election. 

'We write to urge you to convene a hearing regarding Jared Kushner's apparent influence peddling and quid pro quo deals involving investments in exchange for official actions and to examine the resulting threats to our national security,' Raskin and Rep. Robert Garcia, D-Calif., state in the letter to top Republican James Comer, R-Ky. 

Earlier this month the New York Times reported that Kushner is closing in on lucrative real estate deals in Albania and Serbia. 

The plans in the Balkans capitalize off relationships Kushner made during the Trump administration: they are being worked up with Ric Grenell, who served as acting director of national intelligence under Trump and as ambassador to Germany and special envoy to the Balkans.

Democrats allleged that Kushner and Grenell ' have been openly using their relationship with Edi Rama, the Prime Minister of Albania, whom then-President Trump received unconstitutional payments from while serving as Commander-in-Chief'

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

A Democratic report found that Rama, his advisors and the former minister of Infrastructure, Damian Gjiknuri, spent some $6,000 to stay at the Trump hotel in D.C., then owned by the former president. 

One of the proposed projects would reportedly be the development of an island off Albania into a luxury tourist destination known as Sazan. The island was used as a secretive 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 at the site of the former headquarters of the Yugoslav Army, which was destroyed in 1999 by NATO bombings, a of Parliament in Serbia and Kushner's company told the Times. 

Grenell worked on disputes between Serbia and Kosovo.

The projects involve land that is currently controlled by the governments, meaning they would need state sign-off on the projects. 

'This Committee cannot claim to be 'investigating foreign nationals' attempts to target and coerce high-ranking U.S. officials' family members by providing money or other benefits in exchange for certain actions' while continuing to ignore these matters,' the lawmakers wrote. 

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

Albania is becoming one of the fastest-growing tourism hotspots in Europe. 

Kushner told the Times the deals, through his investment firm Affinity Partners, are not finalized but they are 'pretty close.' 

Kushner's firm already took heat from Democrats for its $2 billion in funding from Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund. 

Kushner was closely involved in Trump's Middle East policy during his presidency and capitalized on relationships he developed during that time to close the deals, including a tight relationship with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, the de facto ruler of Saudi Arabia.

Grenell, meanwhile, is rumored to be after the secretary of state job in a potential second Trump administration. He's been unapologetic about his efforts to use government relationships to bring investments to Albania. 

'We are looking for opportunities to invest through foreign investment in the Balkans, but more specifically in Albania, and the Albanian coast is wonderful,' Grenell said in a past interview with a Balkan newspaper.

In a television interview in Albania last year he insisted there was nothing wrong with such deals now that he was a private citizen. 

Kushner and Grenell are interested in developing the island of Sazan

Once communist Albania's most secret military base, a "sentinel" of the Adriatic Sea, the Sazan island has opened to tourists its bunkers and tunnels amid wildness that authorities hope to turn into an attraction

'I'm working on projects, private equity projects, that I get to make money on,' he said. 'No one should ever apologize for wanting to make money.' 

Comer told CNN last year he would be taking a fine tooth comb to Kushner's deals in addition to the Bidens. 

'We're going to have some questions, for Trump, and some of his family members, including Jared Kushner,' he said. 'We want to know exactly what the terms of that [$2 billion Saudi] loan to Kushner were.'

Republicans have pushed back on comparisons between Hunter Biden and his business deals and Kushner, arguing Kushner the latter 'has a career as a business executive that predates Donald Trump's political career.' 

Last week during an impeachment hearing Raskin made a motion to subpoena Kushner for information related to his investment firm. 

Judiciary Chair Jim Jordan moved to table - or kill - the motion. 

Jordan argued that Kushner had had a positive impact on foreign policy, including helping to broker the Abraham Accords, or peace agreements between Israel and Arab countries brokered during the Trump administration.
