The Kushners have been busy.

Just a massive, totally random coincidence:

  • Mark Walter (the new Lakers owner) gets hit with an SEC investigation
  • 3 weeks ago, he visits the White House and gifts Trump a championship ring
  • Now, his marquee NBA franchise is magically being sold to a member of Trump’s family

Seems like it may end up being a deal to get the tax charges dropped.
