Governments should know this is coercion and it needs to be reported to authorities in the USA. There is always the FBI. The CIA can be a better agency to report such problems.
This is extortion. A journalist FINALLY has brought threats to the American conscience.
Jarad Kushner is using his security clearance to extort monies from other countries.
Countries cannot be fearful of such actions. This is completely outrageous and has to be dealt with. No government entity should have the power to coerce another country. All actions between countries should occur through proper diplomacy channels and in writing. The entire scenario is not American in any way, shape or form.
This is not the first time the Kushner family has used the powers of the USA for their own purposes. There was that entire episode early on in Trump's administration whereby Chinese oligarchs were romanced into visas that would directly benefit the Kushners. Don, Jr. was in Congress pounding the halls of Congress for the passage of an extension on those visas before the Kushner family meeting held in China. That administration had intimidated the majority Republican Congress into submission because of threats to primary them.
Things are different now. The US House has a majority Democratic leadership and the doors of justice are open again.
I realize Qatar has image problems within its Middle East neighborhood. That is a matter left up to the nations in the Middle East. But, coercion for personal wealth by any American of an entire government or it's leaders is deep trouble for that person or persons.
When Turkey realized a Washington Post journalist was murdered and his body disposed of it did not conceal "the shame" of it happening within it's borders. Turkey immediately began providing information to American journalists to expose the crime. Turkish intelligence did not hesitate and it's President did not stop their exposure of a murder.
Those are the extremes to which wrongdoing has to be exposed sometimes. There is absolutely no way Qatar leadership should be hiding such outrageous crimes. No country should feel that threatened by any one person of USA origin. This could have been stopped before it became a crime and moniey was transferred. Exposure of internaitonal crimes is vital to it's resolve. Democractic freedom of speech governs such exposure and it is a very important right any international authority should know is available to them.
If nothing else put it on a Facebook entry on an official website, as a cry for help. Do something. The idea alone that exposure of crime will be carried out will stop it before it starts.

While America’s attention has been focused primarily on the Mueller report, (click here) over the course of the last several weeks, a story that likely isn’t clearly captured in the Mueller report has been building steam. For well over a year now, there has been speculation about Jared Kushner’s security clearance, as well as his meetings and ties with various leaders within the Middle East. Now it appears as if this speculation is becoming a full-blown scandal.
Last week on KrassenCast we spoke to Vicky Ward, an investigative journalist and author of the new book Kushner Inc. Since then, Ward, who has been investigating ties that Kushner has had with the Saudis, Emiratis and Qataris, has come across new information that appears to imply that the president’s son-in-law may be extorting the nation of Qatar. HillReporter has also been in contact with several sources with ties to the Qatari government, which also help confirm some of the information that Ward has provided....
