So, Kushnerâs lawyer says thereâs nothing to worry about because Mueller is only interested in what Kushner witnessed, not what he did. Sure - but many of us are kind of interested in what Kushner witnessed, right?
He âanswered every question,â but did he answer them truthfully? I think that very unlikely.
Beat me to it.
I do not recallâŚ
âThey asked him questions. He answered every single one,â
In consideration of the need to save everyoneâs time, Jared generously recycled, âI donât recall.â
âAnd theyâre looking at this broad topic that they call, or the media calls, obstruction of justice.â
As if such a charge only exists in the fevered minds of malaria ridden copy writers.
Say what, another shot at problematizing the investigation? Did Abbe just decide to try to creatively elaborate on what heâs heard from the White House? âWhat charge? There is no such charge. Defending yerselfâs not against the law.â
âAsked whether Kushner was a witness, subject or target of Muellerâs probe, Lowell argued that the labels werenât useful.â
SoâŚâtargetâ it is.
Six hours of testimony, and Kushner gets security clearance by the Trump administration as if to sayâŚ
Anyway, Jared was never told he was just a witness to what happened in 2016, even though his lawyer claimed that today,
(watching Ari, of course)
Claimed is probably the wrong word. Implied or whatever it is lawyers of guilty people do.
Sure - but many of us are kind of interested in what Kushner witnessed, right?
I certainly am: misprision of treason and/or felonies is itself a crime.
The the first time Jared answered questions he got a lollipop, did he get a coloring book for the second time?
So why is this lawyer all the sudden talking to the press? Why is he out there at all? What happened, or could happen, that would make him feel now was the time to make some statement? I donât buy it. Sounds like some Jared fluffing going on.
Getting the security clearance today was certainly a major fluff.
âTheyâre looking to see whether there was collusion with Russia in the in the campaign, and whether or not anybody in the campaign was involved, and if that violated any law,â Lowell said. âAnd theyâre looking at this broad topic that they call, or the media calls, obstruction of justice.â
Lowell continued, âWe call it salad dressing.â
So was Jared the embedded spy in the campaign?
Kush is obviously the secret hidden spy. Look at this timing!!
Well, he did ask the Russian ambassador for a secure back channel for the Administration to communicate with the KremlinâŚso this sounds slightly like a bunch of self serving bullshit. I am also pretty sure that when Trump and Giuliani go ape shit it is in part because of reporters calling to ask for comment on pending stories and in part from the Trump Team debriefing of all the witnesses (via their attorneys probably) who the Mueller folks are talking to.
Embedded spy for whom?
You have give Jared a bit of credit, after all he did not hire Rudy when he had the chanceâŚ

Slightly off-topic and very disappointing: Most Americans donât realize Robert Muellerâs investigation has uncovered crimes
