Jared Kushner on the hot seat

by Jack Brummet


A new report by Vanity Fair:

"In a call Tuesday to former White House chief strategist Stephen Bannon, Trump put blame on Kushner for the part he took in choices to fire former national security adviser Michael Flynn and former FBI director James Comey, Vanity Fair reported.Roger Stone, a longtime Trump ally, also recently said Kushner wasn't giving Trump good advice — a sentiment which Trump reportedly agreed with, according to someone familiar with the conversation.

"Sam Nunberg, a former campaign aide to President Trump who was fired, echoed the statement. “Jared is the worst political adviser in the White House in modern history,” Nunberg said.
 "I’m only saying publicly what everyone says behind the scenes at Fox News, in conservative media, and the Senate and Congress."
On top of all this, he is being investigated for setting up a private email server by multiple congressional committees, as well as sketchy contacts (and maybe more) with The Russians. In addition, Kushner is being actively investigated by the Special Counsel Robert Mueller.
