Here's a little something that may not be common knowledge outside of New Jersey:
Jared Kushner, Ivanka's husband, is the son of a prominent New Jersey real estate magnate named Charles Kushner. He was a powerful financial supporter of Democrats in New Jersey, including the former governor Jim McGreevey who competes with Anthony Weiner for the title of the most f#%&ed-up political figure in the nation over the last decade.
Charles Kushner was prosecuted and convicted for various crimes including illegal campaign contributions, tax evasion and witness tampering. He spent a year in prison and was disbarred from the practice of law.
The Federal prosecutor in the case was the U.S. Attorney for the District New Jersey at the time -- a fellow named Chris Christie.
Thank you for the info.
