Investigators believe Kushner has significant information relevant to their inquiry, officials said. That does not mean they suspect him of a crime or intend to charge him. The FBI's scrutiny of Kushner places the bureau's sprawling counterintelligence and criminal investigation not only on the doorstep of the White House, but in the Trump family circle. The Washington Post first reported last week that a senior White House official close to Trump was a "person of interest," but did not name the person. The term "person of interest" has no legal meaning.[/quote] Not under investigation like Flynn and Manafort, but a 'person of interest' who they want to speak to
Oh I misread that as FBI security, dang
Considering the scope of the probe I'd actually be a lot more surprised if he wasn't flagged as a person of interest in the case.
The question now: how deep does the rabbit hole go?
WaPo says he is in fact being investigated [url]https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/jared-kushner-now-a-focus-in-russia-investigation/2017/05/25/f078db74-40c7-11e7-8c25-44d09ff5a4a8_story.html[/url]
Jared at the moment - "I DIDN'T SIGN UP FOR THIS SHIT"
[QUOTE=Uber22;52275347]Jared at the moment - "I DIDN'T SIGN UP FOR THIS SHIT"[/QUOTE] I'm sure he says that every time Trump delegates another task to him.

[QUOTE=unrezt;52275363]the real question is: does anyone actually expect anything to come from any of this?[/QUOTE] Yes.
The FBI thinks it's going to go somewhere and they don't like to waste their own time.
[QUOTE=Washington Post]The Post has not been told that Kushner is a target — or the central focus — of the investigation, and he has not been accused of any wrongdoing. “Target” is a word that generally refers to someone who is the main suspect of investigators’ attention, though prosecutors can and do bring charges against people who are not marked with that distinction.[/QUOTE]
