What's going on at Charles Kushner house?

In Long Beach, New Jersey. Could be nothing, maybe just a burglar alarm or something. Two different neighbors reporting police cars, 3-4 black SUVs, road blocked with orange cones.
Nothing from media, NO CONFIRMATION of anything.

McCabe's new book: Trump acting like mob boss, unleashing insanity


The deputy attorney general, Rod Rosenstein, privately complained that he was ordered by president Donald Trump to write the notorious memo justifying the firing of the FBI director James Comey, according to Comey’s former deputy.

Andrew McCabe writes in a new book that Rosenstein, who has publicly defended the memo, lamented that the president had directed him to rationalise Comey’s dismissal, which is now the subject of inquiries into whether Trump obstructed justice.

George Washington's personal copy of Constitution sells for $9.8 million

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-billofrights-auction-idUSBRE85L1AQ20120622
NEW YORK (Reuters) - George Washington's personal copy of the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights sold for $9.8 million at auction on Friday, setting a record for any American book or historic document.

Bidders at Christie's New York salesroom and others on the telephone competed for the first U.S. president's signed, gold-embossed volume dating to 1789, which had a pre-sale estimate of up to $3 million.

The non-profit Mount Vernon Ladies Association of the Union, which maintains the historic Mount Vernon estate in Virginia that was Washington's home and is now open to the public, was the successful bidder.
