Jared Kushner returned to the Senate Intelligence Committee for a closed-door interview Thursday. The interview is part of the committee’s ongoing Russia investigation. Kushner, president Trump’s son-in-law, was spotted leaving by a CNN camera and the interview was confirmed by a senator on the committee. Kushner was first interviewed by committee staffers in 2017, but the panel has wanted to re-interview witnesses central to the investigation. Kushner’s Thursday appearance comes just days after Attorney General William Barr released a four-page summary of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia report. The report, according to Barr, “did not establish that members of the Trump Campaign conspired or coordinated with the Russian government in its election interference activities.” Barr said he is reviewing the report before sharing a version with Congress.
