Kushner is in grave legal danger. Flynn's cooperation will likely hurt Kushner more than Trump. Kushner and Flynn were conducting a lot of unscrupulous activities during the Trump transition period. Flynn & Kislyak set Kushner up w/ Russian banker and FSB graduate Sergei Gorkov.

Kushner has met w the Mueller team at least twice, most recently in April for 7hrs.
Sergei Gorkov was appointed by Putin to run Kremlin-linked bank VEB; VEB has links to Russian spy activities. Kushner met Gorkov, w/out explanation, during Trump transition

Considering that Kushner failed to disclose his meetings w/ Russians on U.S. security clearance forms, it's plausible that he may have misled federal investigators about his activities. It has been reported that Kushner advised Trump to fire Comey.

Kushner was present w/ Manafort during Jr's meeting with Russians who promised election help, in June 2016.

In Dec 2016, Kushner, amidst accusations that Russia interfered in our election, met repeatedly with Russians, with Flynn... And never disclosed this to the U.S. govt.

The public initially learned of Kushner's meetings w Russians, not thru him or his representatives, but thru investigative news reports. Kushner's lack of transparency re: Russian meetings suggests something nefarious. His reps have never adequately explained his meeting w Gorkov

Here's something else: after meeting with Kushner in Dec 2016, during the transition period, Gorkov flew directly to where Putin was located. Coincidence? Maybe. Maybe not.

Mueller gave Flynn a plea deal bc he's likely trying to go after a bigger target.
