With mounting criticism from Congress over its record in the war on terror, Saudi Arabia is beefing up its forces–in D.C. NEWSWEEK has learned that to strengthen ties with the White House, the Saudis have retained the high-powered law firm of former Texas GOP congressman Tom Loeffler. Loeffler, whose firm will be paid about $720,000 a year, is one of President George W. Bush's top political moneymen. He headed up fund-raising for Bush's first gubernatorial campaign and served as finance cochair for his presidential race. Loeffler also is tight with Dick Cheney. "You couldn't find anybody closer to this White House," said one D.C. consultant. A Saudi official says Loeffler will be used mostly to lobby on trade issues, but will branch out to matters such as terrorism financing when needed. The retention of Loeffler comes on top of another move that critics charge is designed to influence the White House: a $500,000 gift by Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal to help fund the newly created George Herbert Walker Bush Scholarship Fund at Phillips Academy, Andover. Alwaleed's offer of $10 million to aid 9-11 victims was refused by Rudy Giuliani. But Andover says the elite school won't reject the prince's money. And a Bush spokesperson says the former president, like his son an Andover graduate, "felt it had been given in good faith."

Is Dick Cheney Jewish?
Over Christmas, Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner reportedly walked out of a viewing of “Vice,” the contentious Dick Cheney biopic.
The couple observed the Jewish custom of catching a movie on Christmas

Movie was too critical of Dick. Fucking Jews, go to see a movie produced by a Trump hating piece of shitbag.
"Perhaps the couple left the movie early after recalling Adam McKay’s scathing remarks about Ivanka’s father. The “Vice” director referred to President Trump as a “frothing maniac with a meat cleaver” on November 13th."
US Vice President Mike Pence visited the memorial site of Auschwitz on Friday along with the Polish president and Jared Kushner, the son-in-law of President Donald Trump, viewing a train car, crematoriums and the hair of victims that make it such a powerful testament to the evil that befell Europe in the last century.
