President Donald Trump has lost the US Congress. Democrats hold both chambers. Republicans caught in 'blue tsunami'. After that, the opposition camp came down to increase the pressure on the US President. Trump's son Trump Jr., son-in-law Jared Kushner, including close relatives, they began to investigate.
Taking control of the US Congress will allow Democrats to block many of Trump's plans from legislation. Besides, they have also got powers to hold hearings, issue summons and conduct investigations. On Friday, Rep. Jamie Raskin, a Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee, and Rep. Robert Garcia, a Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, signaled that they would use their powers. Raskin said, “The Iran war has cost us billions of dollars. We've also cost a lot of money because of tariffs. Much, if not all, of this is rooted in corruption. According to Democrats, Trump's son-in-law Kushner has influence over the Middle East policy. Not only that, Kushner also played a key role in Trump's decision to withdraw from the Barack Obama-era Iran nuclear deal.
Kushner holds no position in the Trump administration. However, according to the Democrats, the US President's son-in-law has worked as 'Trump's ambassador' in the Middle East. “We want to look at how much investment Kushner received in his private equity firm from countries like Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates,” Raskin said. On the other hand, Trump's eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., has also been accused of several 'financial irregularities', which are reportedly being investigated by Democrats.
