Report: Breitbart Staffers Told They Can’t Criticize Jared Kushner Anymore
Daily Caller ^ | 4/10/17 | Peter Hasson

Posted on 04/10/2017 5:54:26 PM PDT by markomalley

Senior editors at pro-Trump website Breitbart News have instructed staff members to stop writing critical stories of Jared Kushner, sources tell Business Insider.

Kushner, son-in-law and adviser to President Trump, has clashed recently with White House chief strategist Steve Bannon, the former CEO of Breitbart News.

The New York Times previously reported that “Kushner allies have also raised the issue with the president of the increasingly unflattering coverage that Mr. Kushner is receiving from Breitbart News.”

Trump reportedly told the populist Bannon and the more moderate Kushner to “work this out” after the pair’s feud was repeatedly dragged out into the press, according to the Times.

The New York Times previously reported that “Kushner allies have also raised the issue with the president of the increasingly unflattering coverage that Mr. Kushner is receiving from Breitbart News.”

Trump reportedly told the populist Bannon and the more moderate Kushner to “work this out” after the pair’s feud was repeatedly dragged out into the press, according to the Times.

Breitbart ran stories critical of Kushner before Trump reportedly ordered the ceasefire.

One Breitbart story suggested Kushner was leaking negative information about Bannon to the press, while another ran down a list of “delicate problems” Trump has trusted Kushner — who, the article accurately noted, “boasts a thin resume in diplomacy.”

Breitbart pushed back against the Business Insider report. “It is an absurd suggestion that Breitbart would muzzle critical coverage of any senior White House official,” a spokesman for the site said.

“Reportedly” “sources”

I think a LOT of the “tension” between Bannon & Kushner is the result of lower tier staff stirring the pot. Good for Bannon telling BB to knock it off. It only makes his job tougher.

Kushner, a hard left liberal has no business being anywhere close
to the White House, except for occasional visits.

I think the only “pot stirring” going on is in the fevered imaginations of the media both liberal & conservative.

Creepy Dude.

Third gen of NYC Real Estate tycoons. Not nearly enough seasoning on Foreign Affairs and likely NOT a student of the US Constitution.

Hmm Maybe. I mean if we don’t see any stories blasting the Prince l don’t think we can automatically assume Breitbart is spiking negative stories. It would take something more concrete then that. Now if Jared gives cause and no story then we’ll know. I just hope the Bannon is being tossed story is BS. He’s an important voice on the team.

Trump needs to remove the millennial Romper Room from the West Wing. The fact that Jared and Ivanka have Jamie Gorelick as a close advisor is all we really need to know about them. Gorelick is a Clinton bootlicker.

Well if he keeps on insisting on putting the body armor over his "Thurston Howell III" blazer then he deserves to be criticized.

Jared needs to stop playing pocket pool in front of the cameras.

Jared, Ivanka and Jamie these three having a official place in the White House is a bad break. It’s a lot of leftward pressure.

Kushner has “mama’s boy” and “buffoon” written all over him. He is the pictionary’s entry for the word “cuck”.

If the leftists in the news and entertainment industries don’t start to mercilessly mock this fool soon, we’ll know for sure that he’s a fellow traveler. Not that there’s really any doubt at this point though.

That ridiculous blue blazer in Iraq with the name tag body armor over it has gotta be good for at least 3 or 4 Saturday Night Live skits. And they’d even be funny for a change.

I thought that Kushner also had Kissinger as an advisor.
