Jared Kushner may be up to his twig-thin neck in the Russia investigation, but that hasn’t stopped him or the other members of the Kushner Companies from turning the Trump White House into a shovel for digging up cash in other countries. In May, Kushner’s family was caught using his name as part of a program for selling U.S. visas at $500,000 a pop.

The potential investors were advised to invest sooner rather than later in case visa rules change under the Trump administration. “Invest early, and you will invest under the old rules,” one speaker said. The tagline on a brochure for the event: “Invest $500,000 and immigrate to the United States.”

The program for bringing investors into the U.S. already existed, but the Kushners were capitalizing on two things: Jared’s close connection to Trump, and the fear that the Trump campaign itself had generated. They didn’t stop short of spelling it out—Donald Trump may slam shut the gate, so if you want to be sure of getting in, then buy your way in through Kushner Companies.

Far from being shut down, the scheme is still going on, and Jared Kushner is more deeply involved than ever.

Jared Kushner's status as a top aide to President Donald Trump was used to lure Chinese investors to his family's New Jersey development, even after his family's company apologized for mentioning his name during a sales pitch in May, CNN has found.

Kushner is selling entry into the United States for people that invest in his buildings. And it’s working.
