After Donald Trump won the presidency in 2024, Jared Kushner, his son-in-law, dismissed concerns that his private equity firm would be a vehicle to buy foreign influence.
Kind of telling that a man who's been failing upward his whole life would consider investigative journalism and ethics expertise not to be real jobs. An insufferable egotist and liar like his father-in-law.
His assessment of his performance the first time around is also revealing. That he thinks the inability to source sufficient amounts of protective equipment and prematurely declaring containment during a pandemic is a pretty impeccable record, goes to show what passes for quality work in some family businesses.
This just in: Man who worked for his father then for his father in law before receiving billions from suspected murderer to become an "investor" determines that journalists don't have real jobs.
Judd just keeps putting the spotlight on these crooks while elected officials are more concerned about their reelection. It is truly a sad chapter in American history.
Accountability is long overdue!
Keep reporting Judd… justice is just around the corner.
Kushner has five days to comply. Hmmm. Maybe he and Steve will have successfully solved all the wars and conflicts by then and his special envoy volunteer real job will be done by then and the conflict and corruption will have resolved itself and he can go back to being the little shit son-in-law that doesn’t matter again.
It never stops..this Administration will bankrupt and continue to destroy the US and none of our elected officials even pretend to care about it. If we have free and fair elections in '26 and '28, me must re-write our constitution and put in real guardrails against future crooks and liars.
Clearly, the Republicans, who are in control of Congress, do not care. Democrats do care, but they do not control the agenda or what gets brought to the floor. The actions they do take do not get much attention in the corporate media, and some maneuvering also has to be done quietly.
When Biden was President, appointing Garland was a mistake and they dragged their feet and did not hold the first trump administration accountable. His DOJ was a huge disappointment. In my opinion I don’t think this group of Dems realize that they are up against republicans who don’t follow the established norms or how to deal with it.
You think anyone, any already compromised country is going to buy what Kushner is selling? He and Witkoff and their abject failure to "negotiate" a peace with Iran before the bombs dropped should prove to one and all that this slight man, in body, mind and spirit, has no place on the world stage. He's a dweeb with a famous wife, who, like his father-in-law went bust in New York real estate deals and had to use his corrupt connections made during Trump 1.0 to hammer out a deal with the Saudis. Do you really think they would have given him a dime if they didn't think they could leverage his Daddy? I hope he twists in the deal-making wind.
Believing ANYTHING coming from the mouths of thieves is bound to disappoint. They lie as they breathe. They have no morals, no ethics, no decency and their only means of survival are lies, broken promises, scams, cons, and moneygrubbing. They don't give one damn about the average person trying to get by as they blow up the world and send oil prices higher as they dis stabilize . foreig policy for their own psychotic needs. I hope dems have some spine soon and are able to hold these creeps, crooks, and cons accountable for their many crimes.
Trump, whitcoff and Kushner are traitor.s Why aren’r trump, whitcoff and kushner being held accountable for helping Russia, who is helping Iran target US personnel, US bases, and US allies. Isn't that the definition of treason? Corporate media ignores this coddling of enemies as US military members die putin must have loads of kompromat on the criminal in thief trump… U.S. Constitution (Article III, Section 3), consists only of levying war against the United States or adhering to their enemies by giving them aid and comfort.
If the Us, and indeed the world is ever going to come out of this disastrous phase, the ability of these crooks to continue to peruse acquiring obscene wealth has to be priority one. These greedy crooks are the reason we are here.
Kushner/Trump/ SCOTUS/ the Republican politicians and their ignorant followers are the symptoms of unbridled greed and the admiration of people who are destroying our country.
Democrats continue to fail to hold these white collar criminals accountable. Once they take back control of govt, if it hasn't been destroyed by trump, they need to have the trumpemberg trials and make sure this group of slimy, dirty, billionaires are punished financially and end up in one of trump's concentration camps for a few years...
First we have to reinstate antitrust laws and enact more laws to make what they have been doing actually illegal. The Founders did not contemplate the emergence of so many wholly immoral people,or a population stupid enough to elect them.
I completely agree. Antitrust need to crush the likes of musk, zuck, and google along with the other AI trash that get special treatment for the damage they inflict on society. Republicans like the dumbest of the dumb. As trump said, we love the poorly educated. When stupid people vote for the guy they want to have a beer with instead of the person most qualified to lead, we end up where we are now, and that is not a good place...
Who is going to stop the trump crime family? The DOJ? Congress? The Supreme Court? The voters in 2026 midterm election will be the last obstetrical to total oligarchy. The trump crime family is working to eliminate voting. Will enough people realize what is happening or even care?
Once a crook, always a crook.
Jared, "Sorry, but the money was just too good."
Kind of telling that a man who's been failing upward his whole life would consider investigative journalism and ethics expertise not to be real jobs. An insufferable egotist and liar like his father-in-law.
And father.

That long skinny skeleton body of his with his tiny head all twisted into a pretzel……
In Trumpworld, promises aren't worth the paper they're not written on.
And with total control of the DOJ, with judicial appointments and pardon power, there is zero concern they will ever be held to account.
Thanks voters who out the price of gas and eggs above concerns about Project 2025 and reelecting an insurrectionist.
Kush is a special envoy for graft.

corporate ag could do with a good dose of antitrust, too
Unbridled greed is certainly at the center, but I'd also put bigotry and misogyny central to the mix.
But tell me again about Hunter Biden’s laptop. 🙄

The next administration. lol @ eliminate voting.
Pure corruption ... like the rest of this administration.
How to get the wider public to care about epic corruption -- to see that this is a cause of their economic woes?
Why aren't we calling all of this out to the public? The public didn't like the mob bosses of the past. Have we developed a fond feeling for them now?
"I served in government, and I think my track record is pretty impeccable." says the arrogant chittering rodent about himself.
Very important to keep the focus up on this, great, nuanced reporting, as always
