WATCH: ABC Host Asks GOP Chair Of Oversight Committee If He’ll Also Investigate Jared Kushner

The chairman of the House Oversight Committee, Rep. James Comer (R-KY) got more than he bargained for when he showed up for an interview with “This Week” host  George Stephanopoulos on Sunday.

Noting that the Oversight Committee has announced it will be investigating President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter, Stephanopoulos asked:

“It’s clear that you’re going to be looking at Hunter Biden. I want to put up a front-page story from the Washington Post detailing Jared Kushner’s ties to the Saudis.

“We know that former President Trump has also received funds related to the Saudis’ golf tour. Will you be investigating that as well?”

Comer:

“I think everything is on the table. Look, we’re investigating Joe Biden. We know that Joe Biden said during the presidential campaign that he had no knowledge of his son’s business interests.”

The congressman also suggested that there was no reason to investigate Trump or Kushner because neither is currently in office, adding:

“The difference between Jared Kushner and Hunter Biden is that Jared Kushner actually sat down and was interviewed. So, he’s already been investigated.”

Comer then said, “Hopefully, the Biden family will be as cooperative as Jared Kushner — with our investigation — as they were with the Jan. 6 investigation and all the other investigations of the Trump administration.”

Cooperative? Just because Kushner sat for questions from the January 6 House Select Committee doesn’t address his ties to Saudi Arabia and how that connection may have directly influenced foreign policy in the Trump administration.

Congressman Comer needs to just admit that his goal is to try and slag Hunter Biden in the hopes it will damage President Biden. That’s the only thing he’s interested in accomplishing.

Trump Family Insiders Say Jared And Ivanka’s Marriage Is ‘Falling Apart’

The marriage of Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump is said to be “falling apart” according to insiders who are familiar with the situation.

Radar Online reports the marriage is filled with “animosity” between the two.

Trump family political outcast Jared Kushner’s marriage to the former president’s daughter Ivanka is coming apart at the seams, RadarOnline.com has learned, with insiders revealing the two are constantly at each other’s throats.

“It’s all falling apart. They’re always fighting and can barely contain their growing animosity for each other even when they appear in public.”

Jared and Ivanka’s reported marital problems began shortly after Vanky’s father, one-term, twice-impeached former president Donald Trump, lost the 2020 election to President Joe Biden.

“It’s a toxic situation right now,” said the source. The once rock-solid 13-year union allegedly began to crumble after Ivanka’s father, Donald, lost the 2020 presidential election triggering the Jan. 6 Capitol insurrection.

“Jared recognized Donald had become radioactive, and he pushed Ivanka to abandon her father for the sake of their own reputations and the future of their children,” said the source. “They still have grand ambitions and consider themselves card-carrying power brokers. But Jared knew if Ivanka continued to stand by her dad, all of his big business connections would go out the window!”

Shortly after her father announced he would be running for president in 2024, Ivanka made a public statement saying she wouldn’t play any role in helping with the campaign. That was not well received by others in the Trump family.

“The result is Ivanka has been declared persona non grata by all the other Trumps. And she’s begun to have regrets. She didn’t sign up to be a pariah in her own family!”

Ivanka’s willingness to testify under oath to the House Select Committee investigating the January 6m 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol has also caused a strain in her relationship with her father.

“Donald was furious with Ivanka. He and her brothers Donnie and Eric considered her testimony a betrayal,. They believe she and Jared have chosen sides — and it aint’ with them. It’s with all their glittery, gala-going friends who don’t happen to like Donald all that much.”

This latest report of troubles between Jared and Ivanka would seem to confirm what Page Six noted a couple of weeks ago:

Miami spies say that the usually rosy couple seemed a little “cold” with each other at a recent yacht party on Miami’s Bay of Biscayne.

A seagoing source was surprised to notice the frosty vibe, telling us, “I never saw them interact. They stood in the same group, but almost as acquaintances.”

They added, “As they moseyed around the party, they kept their distance [from each other] — never too close; never too far apart.”

Elon Musk Jared Kushner Social Media WTF?!

Jared And Elon Set Off A Wave Of Online Chatter By Attending The World Cup Final Together

In what many are calling the greatest World Cup Final in history, Argentina defeated France today on penalty kicks.

The Athletic reports:

Lionel Messi has led Argentina to World Cup glory after the most thrilling final in the 92-year history of the tournament.

Argentina took the lead through Messi and Angel Di Maria, only for Kylian Mbappe to score a late brace. Messi restored Argentina’s lead in extra time, but Mbappe again hit back for France, completing his hat-trick and taking the game to a penalty shootout.

Argentina won the shootout 4-2, to claim the World Cup and victory in one of the sport’s all-time great games.

Shortly after the game was over, a photo began circulating online showing Twitter CEO Elon Musk and former Trump administration senior adviser Jared Kushner standing together in a private box at the stadium in Qatar, which led this posting:

What in the hell is going on there? Is Jared trying to line up another couple of billion bucks from Qatar, much the same as he did with the Saudis right after the Trump administration ended?

And why is Musk at the World Cup? Granted, he’s a billionaire and can attend any sporting event on the planet, but is he really there to try and shore up his Twitter investment? After all, a report from the Wall Street Journal suggests that Musk is desperate to sell more shares in the social media platform because he no longer has the cash on hand he needs to pay the bills for rent on office space and vendors who supply the company.

Since neither Kushner or Musk was kind enough to explain the reason for the simultaneous appearance at the World Cup, it seems only fair to let social media figure it out.

Jared and Elon make a nice couple, especially when they’re on the hunt for blood money.

Mary Trump Explains Why Jared And Ivanka Are Distancing From The Donald

Even though he announced in November that he plans to seek the 2024 GOP presidential nomination yet again, two of ex-president Donald Trump’s closest advisers and confidants, Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump, made it clear they won’t be part of the next campaign.

What exactly changed for Jared and Ivanka? Their cousin, Mary Trump, thinks she knows exactly why the two are backing away from the failed, one-term, twice-impeached former president.

Speaking with Ali Velshi of MSNBC, Mary Trump noted that the two can sense that Donald is “losing value.”

“Donald is definitely losing value in terms of the party and in terms of politics generally, and Ivanka and Jared are legitimately wealthy people apart from whatever Donald’s doing, so they don’t need him to the same degree they might have.”

She added, “It’s the same with most of Donald’s inner circle — there is always a transactional calculation being made and a lot of people are making the calculation that it just isn’t worth it for them anymore.”

In other words, it has always been a sort of quid pro quo. Jared and Ivanka wanted to enrich themselves, so they took jobs in the Trump administration because they knew it would give them the perfect opportunity to make a mint. If you doubt that, consider the massive deal Jared made with Saudi Arabia after his father-in-law lost the 2020 election.

PBS reported on the Kushner deal with the Saudis back in April.

A $2 billion investment that President Trump — former President Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner secured last summer from a fund led by the crown prince of Saudi Arabia has raised questions about the ethics of post-White House business dealings.

Kushner’s private equity firm secured the investment after Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman overruled a host of objections from the sovereign wealth fund’s advisers. The New York Times reported some of the group’s concerns. The private equity firm was found to be — quote — “unsatisfactory in all aspects.” The kingdom would be taking on the bulk of the investment and the risk.

Ivanka, on the other hand, got new trademark approvals from China while her old man was still president, CNBC noted in 2018.

President Donald Trump’s daughter and senior advisor, Ivanka Trump, last month won initial approval from the Chinese government for 16 new trademarks, covering a wide range of products that include “voting machines.”

The approval for Ivanka Trump’s trademarks — which comes three months after she said her personal clothing brand was shutting down — occurred “while her father continues to wage a trade war with China,” noted the public interest group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, which first reported the approval.

Jared and Ivanka have lined their nest and now they’re kicking Donald to the curb.

Jared Kushner Is Asked If He’d ‘Work For Trump Again’ – His Response Is Incredibly Revealing

You’ve probably heard or read that former Trump administration senior adviser Jared Kushner (a.k.a) Mr. Ivanka Trump has a “memoir” out about all of the great things (ha!) he accomplished while serving in the White House.

In order to sell more copies of his book, Jared showed up on Fox News for an interview with Bill Hemmer and Dana Perino and was posed this question:

“Would you work for Trump again?”

If you think you’ve heard non-responsive replies before, you ain’t heard nothing until you get a load of the word salad that came from Jared:

“Working for him was an honor. I write in the book about how it was a different experience. I’m very proud of the things I got done. It is a big toll, working in Washington…I don’t want people who are from the private sector to be scared to go to Washington. I think that that’s what our founders wanted. They wanted people to leave their farm, go and serve, then go back to their farm. It takes a big toll, but you can get a lot of things done…”

What?! Even Bill Hemmer couldn’t resist reminding Kushner:

“That is not an answer.”

And that led to even more bullshit from Jared, who opined on the matter with this:

“We need not the career political class who have been doing it for 30 years. We need people with different perspectives, outsider approaches, people with real life business experience coming to Washington. That’s what President Trump did. He brought a lot of people like him, but now he’s got a lot of very qualified people with him who I think could help him do things in ways he didn’t have in the beginning of his first term. So for me right now, I’m enjoying my life in the private sector and loving the time with my kids.”

Even Perino seemed tired of the back-and-forth at that point, remarking:

“I’m taking it as a no.”

About the only work Jared, Ivanka, or any of the other Trump family members will likely be for the old man in the future is making sure he has some money in his commissary account so he can buy Little Debbies and ramen soup kits at whatever federal prison he’s shipped to.
