THE SPECIAL TREATMENT OF IVANKA TRUMP AND JARED KUSHNER IS A NATIONAL SECURITY ISSUE
Newsweek ^ | 3-13-19 | CALLUM PATON

Posted on 03/13/2019 10:20:18 AM PDT by McQ444

Nepotism displayed in the privileges given to President Donald Trump’s daughter Ivanka Trump and son-in-law, Jared Kushner, constituted a national security issue, a prominent former federal prosecutor and ethics campaigner said. “White House advisers Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner show why nepotism laws exist: This is not only an ethics [issue] but a national security issue. They have received special treatment, including security clearance, and apparently can’t be fired,” Noah Bookbinder, a former federal corruption prosecutor and the executive director of Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, tweeted. Bookbinder was responding to a The New York Times report that the president had sought to force his daughter and her husband to resign from their White House roles shortly after hiring John Kelly as chief of staff.

Ivanka and Mr Ivanka should be shipped back to NY postage due. We didn’t vote for them and their free the criminals effort and their obvious support for globalism over Americanism.

Yep, the biggest security risk since FDR’s Cabinet walked right into the seats of power and the FBI-CIA ignored it.

Dimwit author.

National Security is what the President says it is. He is Commander in Chief.

“National Security” simply does not exist independent of that fact, and there are no overriding, superior concepts or policies above it.

ESPECIALLY as espoused by traitors, and their lackeys in the media.

I personally think that those 2 settled down and are being used in programs where they have the skills and creativity to make progress
Ivanka in business development, Jared in back channel international negotiations
Trump can trust their honest loyalty like no others
And that’s why the left hates them

I trust those two over ANYONE from the previous Kenyan administration and inexplicably, a plethora of Obunghole holdovers and disloyal appointees are still within the administration. THAT is the security issue.

Trolling for attention yet again I see...

If it were not so obvious it might pass muster, but I guess Never Trumpers are trying to chip away throwing all the rap they have while hiding behind a facade of security and claims they are insiders for the deep state...

By your words shall you be known, and what you are saying in default is Trump is out to lunch and blind to his children and is willingly leaving the door for the opposition to walk in.

The Farce is strong in this post

The Chairman of Bookbinder’s organization, Citizens for Responsibility adn Ethics in Washington, is none other than David Brock, and it was co-founded by Obama’s diplomat appointee and “ethics” guru Noah Eisen. So I’m pretty sure Bookbinder and pals don’t have a political agenda. /sarc
