Newly empowered House Democrats are eyeing Ivanka Trump as a potential witness in their expanded Russia probe and may force the president's daughter to testify.
Although no final decisions are made, House investigators have flagged press reports about her involvement in a project to explore a Trump tower project in Moscow through at least the summer of 2016 campaign. Longtime Trump lawyer Michael Cohen pleaded guilty to lying to the House Intelligence Committee about aspects of the project.
'Obviously there are a number of public reports about her involvement in the Trump Tower Moscow deal, and she may very well have relevant information,' a House Democrat said at a roundtable with reporters, Axios reported.
House Democrats could call Ivanka Trump to testify about her involvement in a Trump Moscow tower project that extended well into 2016, as prosecutors revealed
Ivanka Trump told ABC she knew 'literally almost nothing' about the Moscow project, following a report that she and Donald Trump Jr. were involved as far back as 2013.
Ivanka Trump, Donald Trump Jr., and Eric Trump all visited Moscow and appear to have scoped out potential locations in 2015. Leaked emails obtained by Buzzfeed reveal Russia-born former Trump associate Felix Sater touting his own sway in getting Ivanka access during her Moscow visit.
In a Nov. 3, 2015 email, Sater wrote Cohen: 'Michael I arranged for Ivanka to sit in Putins private chair at his desk and office in the Kremlin I will get Putin on this program and we will get Donald elected.'

Lawmakers are signaling caution when it comes to the president's daughter, who was on Capitol Hill Wednesday to discuss family leave legislation, with an eye toward getting their ducks in a row before calling her.
They plan to 'sequence the interviews that we do with an eye towards knowing as much as we can before we bring in potential witnesses,' said the lawmaker, who apparently sought anonymity to map out the probes.
House Intelligence chair Rep. Adam Schiff of California has already stated that his panel will extend beyond the search for evidence of collusion between Trump officials and Russia.
"The issue of potential Gulf money is the second-largest area of concern after Russia, said the lawmaker. '[T]hey may be distinct but overlapping when it comes to, for example, funding the inauguration. There may have been efforts to illegally funnel Russian money as well as Gulf money."

Earlier this month, it was revealed that federal prosecutors in New York have subpoenaed Trump's inaugural committee – which smashed records by raising $100 million – for lists of donors and vendors as well as financial records.
The Trump inaugural chair, Tom Barrack, took heat this week following comments that backed up the regime in Saudi Arabia despite the murder of Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi.
Barrack, who has ties to Middle Eastern leaders, apologized after making comments that are at odds with lawmakers who are demanding accountability from Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman.
“So whatever happened in Saudi Arabia,” Barrack said, “the atrocities in America are equal or worse to the atrocities in Saudi Arabia. The atrocities in any autocratic country are dictated by the rule of law, so for us to dictate what we think is the moral code there, when we have a young man and a regime that is trying to push themselves into 2030, I think, is a mistake,' he said.
Trump son-in-law Jared Kushner reportedly supported a blockade of Qatar supported by Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. Qatar is reexamining its investment policies following reports it was caught off guard to learn it had been part of a deal to bail Kushner's family firm out of a costly real estate situation.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
