H.R. McMaster, President Trump's national security adviser, learned that Kushner had contacts with foreign officials that he did not coordinate through the National Security Council or officially report. The issue of foreign officials talking about their meetings with Kushner and their perception of his vulnerabilities was a subject raised in McMaster's daily intelligence briefings, according to the current and former officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive matters.
Officials in the White House were concerned that Kushner was "naive and being tricked" in conversations with foreign officials, some of whom said they wanted to deal only with Kushner directly and not more experienced personnel, said one former White House official.
I mean it was the Russians who pushed for and backed him to make a serious run in the first place. Trump has been manipulated by Russia since well before the election.Like they haven't discussed manipulating the bitch made president.
UAE, China, Israel, and Mexico.
Throw the opening quote into the OP:
Officials in at least four countries have privately discussed ways they can manipulate Jared Kushner, the president's son-in-law and senior adviser, by taking advantage of his complex business arrangements, financial difficulties and lack of foreign policy experience, according to current and former U.S. officials familiar with intelligence reports on the matter.
Among those nations discussing ways to influence Kushner to their advantage were the United Arab Emirates, China, Israel and Mexico, the current and former officials said.
He can't get a proper clearance. Staying on an interim clearance wasn't a strategy but a necessity. It doesn't have any benefits.I mean...the claim here is ignorance. But don't you kind of have to go out of your way, with the help of many, to avoid security clearance for these WH positions that usually demand it?
To me it seems like the whole point of not getting proper clearance was to continue to do this kind of stuff
at least four. There are almost certainly more that haven't leaked.UAE, China, Israel, and Mexico.

Racism. And because their Fox News masters decreed that they support it.It's good thing Trump supporters love Nepotism, and hate having a secure country that isn't compromised by corrupt business practices, otherwise this might be upsetting to them. Fortunately, they want a weak American government that's bought out by other countries, so they should be very pleased with this news. I mean, they DO want this stuff, right? Otherwise why would they keep supporting it?
Remember when there was a huge amount of concern (not all of it partisan) over the fact that Obama's Secretary of State ran a private email server? Here's a guy who hadn't even passed a security clearance asking for the deepest secrets of the state and making unauthorized, unmonitored contacts with foreign agents with no briefing or debriefing.
It's not a good look. On the bright side, Kushner isn't likely to ever run for the Democratic Party's nomination.
Rolling up the organization.
"Either you give us Donald or we send you and your wife to prison, Jared. What's it gonna be?"
I really, REALLY hope we're seeing the buildup to a Kushner indictment soon.
Possibly. I don't know if Mueller is willing to move on Kushner until he has the whole thing wrapped up, but things are getting heated. Flynn's been spilling to Mueller for a while now.I really, REALLY hope we're seeing the buildup to a Kushner indictment soon.
ben carson?Serious question: is there anyone in this administration who is not greedy or compromised?
falls under greedyben carson?
The very little I know about him (other than being a doctor) is that he isn't a good person. That being said, I don't think he's a traitor. I could definitely be wrong though.
