Gee, if only there was a way to monetize inside information from the highest levels of government.
Oh, well. No worries. That family has shown themselves to be dedicated to nothing more than public service.
I am not trying to get “top level security clearance” for my children. This was a typically false news story.

Trump's ability to lie convincingly has begun to wane.Um, just how should we judge Trump’s credibility problem?
I believe that anti-nepotism law will prevent Kushner from taking a National Security advisory post. If he is an unpaid advisor, then there is no precedent for processing him for a clearance, since he would not have any formal role. I do believe Trump asked if he could have a clearance as an unpaid advisor and ran into the laws and rules so they are walking it back. So due to anti-nepotism law, none of his family can take any post in government under his presidency/leadership. If they take an informal role, they will not qualify as having a need to know in his administration and so therefore cannot obtain security clearance. Which, let me add, thank goodness!
Absolutely, he asked and was turned down.
Donnie is beginning to get an idea that being president does not allow you to do whatever you want. This is the first of many walls he is going to run into…
Oh, now I see the plan! Rump, spelled w/ a T will take off and … and his “kids” will run the U.S.A.
Trump: No security clearance for you, no problem. I’ll just tell you everything that was said in the briefing and then you can explain to me what it means. In fact, I’ll record it and no one will ever know.
Every article including a quote from Sean Spicer should include a disclaimer that he’s a soulless shell of a man lying for an orange bigot in the hopes of some cushy boardroom sinecure.
@mahniah Or he needs Jared to read the reports because he’s actually/functionally illiterate.
lol…of course it is true…because trump has NO intention of ever reading anything and must likely will find ways to avoid having to even BE at the briefings…this way he can just ask his son in law to summarize it all for him…
what a continuing horror …
Kushner Secretary of 'Esplainin Stuff.
“Style Alert!”
This is the trump spawn that well be advising trump in the White House.
Man…I feel so much better know that professional liar Sean Spicer has told me there is nothing to see here…
I’m waiting for the Donald to include top security info in a tweet. It’s gonna happen, he can’t help it.
Our country needs a president Trump decided it should be Kushner.
Donald Trump will leave most of his day-to-day decisions as president to his White House staff while he holds rallies and goofs off, according to his biographers.
Politico gathered a panel of four authors again to discuss Trump after his confounding election win, and they agreed that he simply lacked the attention span and management skills to run his own administration.
“He’s not going to — he’s going to want to talk about big issues, and there’s so many day-to-day decisions in a White House that have enormous impact that he’s not going to want to be bothered with,” said Wayne Barrett, who has written two biographies of Trump. “His management skills are extremely limited.”
Trump has already said he would delegate presidential responsibilities he found boring, which would leave much of those decisions to his chief of staff, and his biographers agreed he liked holding rallies too much to stop.
“I think when the advisors need him, they’re going to find him in the Rose Garden on a pogo stick, bouncing around, watching CNN on a flat panel,” said Tim O’Brien, author of “Trump Nation.”
I hate those spawn. What vile human beings to fly half way around the world to kill such a beautiful creature, and then smile about it. Soulless motherfuckers.
They’ll probably mine United States Fish and Wildlife Service data to ferret out the last pockets of endangered species in order to find primo trophies for their penthouses.
Selling is all that they think about. That, and exploiting people.
ETA: and for the manly men, dominating and killing.
I couldn’t agree with you more.
Trump has already said he would delegate presidential responsibilities he found boring,…
Too bad for us that the boring responsibilities are usually the most important. So, while he’s off agitating his feral trumpers to become completely unhinged, the country will just sort of quietly disintegrate from chaos.
