Congratulations to President Trump on the overwhelming vote by the U.S. Senate to acquit him and reject the baseless impeachment charges against him.

My assumption is awareness ... with limited resources, one can't look at everything.
A better question is why didn't the FBI and State look into it.
Oh yeah, it was under Obama ...
... Nuff said!

If Joe is who you and your fellow consercuks say he is then why are you so worried about him being nominated?
I'm not worried.
He wouldn't be that bad a Prez especially if he chooses Amy as VP.
Still don't think he and Amy can win over Trump.
Check back with me in 9 months or so.

The SEC is investigating the Kushner family's company over its use of a controversial visa program

It is happening. I’m not sure your alleged standard of illegality is real. There’s no evidence what Hunter did was illegal but you still flip your lid about it.
Actually there is a law against using your office to enrich family members. Whether Hunter did anything illegal remains to be seen. His father setting him up for life is where laws were broken.

Trump Engaged in Suspect Tax Schemes as He Reaped Riches From His Father

The president has long sold himself as a self-made billionaire, but a Times investigation found that he received at least $413 million in today’s dollars from his father’s real estate empire, much of it through tax dodges in the 1990s.

President Trump participated in dubious tax schemes during the 1990s, including instances of outright fraud, that greatly increased the fortune he received from his parents, an investigation by The New York Times has found.

Mr. Trump won the presidency proclaiming himself a self-made billionaire, and he has long insisted that his father, the legendary New York City builder Fred C. Trump, provided almost no financial help.

But The Times’s investigation, based on a vast trove of confidential tax returns and financial records, reveals that Mr. Trump received the equivalent today of at least $413 million from his father’s real estate empire, starting when he was a toddler and continuing to this day.

Much of this money came to Mr. Trump because he helped his parents dodge taxes. He and his siblings set up a sham corporation to disguise millions of dollars in gifts from their parents, records and interviews show. Records indicate that Mr. Trump helped his father take improper tax deductions worth millions more. He also helped formulate a strategy to undervalue his parents’ real estate holdings by hundreds of millions of dollars on tax returns, sharply reducing the tax bill when those properties were transferred to him and his siblings.

These maneuvers met with little resistance from the Internal Revenue Service, The Times found. The president’s parents, Fred and Mary Trump, transferred well over $1 billion in wealth to their children, which could have produced a tax bill of at least $550 million under the 55 percent tax rate then imposed on gifts and inheritances.

The Trumps paid a total of $52.2 million, or about 5 percent, tax records show.”
