@RepCummings @OversightDems IP3, the private company lobbying the WH to transfer US nuclear technology to Saudi Arabia, repeatedly sought $120 million investment from Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. It's unclear if the company received the investment

@RepCummings @OversightDems The timeline table of contents in the 50 pg report is like the Saudi nuclear deal discussion greatest hits:

Flynn, Barrack, Russians, Saudis, MBS, IP3, Westinghouse, Kushner, Trump

Discussions that started in 2015 and continued through 2019

@RepCummings @OversightDems Aug 1 2018: Brookfield completed acquisition of Westinghouse after Cmte on Foreign Investment in US/CFIUS (Mnuchin, Ross, Mattis, Pompeo, Perry) approved deal

Aug 3 2018: Brookfield announced 99-year lease of Kushner Cos 666 Fifth Ave bldg

@RepCummings @OversightDems @jedshug Brookfield acquisition of Westinghouse & discussions w/Tom Barrack about Saudi nuclear deal occurred at same time as Brookfield deal to bail out 666 Fifth Ave Kushner bldg

Tom Barrack was a creditor & had assumed $70mil in debt in Kushner's 666 Fifth bldg
@RepCummings @OversightDems @jedshug As Tom Barrack negotiated nuclear deal w/Saudis WH etc

- CFIUS (Mnuchin, Ross, Mattis, Pompeo, Perry) approved Brookfield acquisition of Westinghouse

- Barrack invited Brookfield to deal discussion

- Brookfield bailed out Kushner's 666 Fifth Ave bldg

@RepCummings @OversightDems @jedshug Brookfield info was in first report and I tweeted about this in February - but today's report adds new info - the coincidence(?) that CFIUS approved Brookfield acquisition of Westinghouse Aug 1 and two days later Aug 3 Brookfield announced Kushner bailout
@RepCummings @OversightDems @jedshug Great thread by @emptywheel with some highlights from the report documents
