Oh, and if it your contention that you have evidence that contrary to broad reporting Kushner wasn’t a longtime Democrat coming into this election—why don’t you break the story, provide us with the evidence, and turn all the Trump intrigue stories around on a dime?
BTW, here is evidence that Kushner was donating heavily to liberal Democrats in the 2014 news cycle:

You want to keep digging a hole on this?
FWIW, rodguy, I listened to Breitbart this morning and Alex Marlow denied that a “directive” had gone out to Breitbart reporters to back off Kushner. They were also pretty tough in their reporting on how Trump has let down border patrol, for example, by naming Obama’s guy to be in charge of them; how Betsy DeVos seemed to come out pro-illegal immigrant instate tuition this week, saying she and Jeb B. still speak regularly and have the same heart on the issues; and Alex himself talked with concern about the Trump WH seeming to be veer away from campaign promises and in the direction of the Dems in the admin. But Jared himself wasn’t at all a target on the show this AM.
So my reading between the lines of this is that indeed some sort of request has been made and is being honored, but not as a firm order to the reporters, and Breitbart if anything is doubling down on the issues, just not calling Kushner out on his influence and role in hijacking them.
In case you want the entire story of how Jared Kushner evolved from not caring a bit about politics until his father in law enlisted his support it’s all here. This piece explains any questions anyone might have of how he went from making what to him are small donations to dems to being a huge part of Trumps win.
Anyway its all below with a clip below as well/

It’s been one week since Donald Trump pulled off the biggest upset in modern political history, and his headquarters at Trump Tower in New York City is a 58-story, onyx-glassed lightning rod. Barricades, TV trucks and protesters frame a fortified Fifth Avenue. Armies of journalists and selfie-seeking tourists stalk Trump Tower’s pink marble lobby, hoping to snap the next political power player who steps into view. Twenty-six floors up, in the same building where washed-up celebrities once battled for Trump’s blessing on The Apprentice, the president-elect is choosing his Cabinet, and this contest contains all the twists and turns of his old reality show.
Winners will emerge shortly. But today’s focus is on the biggest loser: New Jersey governor Chris Christie, who has just been fired from his role leading the transition, along with most of the people associated with him. The episode is being characterized as a “knife fight” that ends in a “Stalinesque purge.”
The most compelling figure in this intrigue, however, wasn’t in Trump Tower. Jared Kushner was three blocks south, high up in his own skyscraper, at 666 Fifth Avenue, where he oversees his family’s Kushner Companies real estate empire. Trump’s son-in-law, dressed in an impeccably tailored gray suit, sitting on a brown leather couch in his impeccably neat office, displays the impeccably polite manners that won the 35-year-old a dizzying number of influential friends even before he had gained the ear, and trust, of the new leader of the free world.

Sorry if Trump is letting down the Border Patrol now that hes been in office for 3 1/2 years,OH hell, not that long is it? Less than 100 days. Perhaps he can’t do everything you would like immediately.
That was the preposturous puff piece clearly written for the Kushner/Ivanka camp that attributed Jared with Herculean powers making him as good as solely responsible for Trump’s election.
Certainly he has money and connections, and as much as Jared has made something of a hash of the Kushner RE business, his brother has been a big success in the tech VC world. So yeah, he had people who could get him to the right hires in the tech world.
I have no doubt that Jared and Ivanka have been trying their best to help their dad get elected and now govern. And they have presumably done some useful things. But their politics are those of liberal Democrats and they have brought in a slew of liberal Democrats and uniparty operatives such that the Trump admin has got far off the course he campaign and was elected on. In that sense, the Democrats in the WH are far more dangerous than the Democrats in Congress.
Still dodging. Issue is not voting history. It is that YOU claim BB story w unnamed sources is not fake news.
Waiting on your source for that.
No more dodges. What is your evidence?

My claim is that YOU claim the NON-SOURCED story us true. Therefore you are obliged to source it. What’s your source that you have inside access to a feud?
Waiting.
I read somewhere that Jared’s brother supported Hillary and is in daily contact with Jared.
You are right that BB needs to focus on the Demonrats.
I actually didn’t. What I pointed out was the irony in your saying that instead of targeting Kushner, they should target the Democrats. All I pointed out is that Kushner himself is a long-time Democrat.
You’re just needlessly bullying me for what I didn’t say, rather than responding to the simple point I made.
seems you are somewhat of a mind reader....
I read somewhere that the moon is made of green cheese....
Nope. the issue was and remains, do you or do you not have evidence that the Kushner story is legit.
Because if you do, you would have sources I don’t have. So please reveal and cease dodging.
I appreciate, understand, and even to a degree sympathize with criticisms of Syrian attack, but I wish the critics spent half as much energy attacking the OBAMA policies that got us here in the first place.
NORKs & Iran shouldn’t be within light years of nukes. Assad shouldn’t be even close to being SUSPECTED of having a chem weapon.
But it’s “Trump’s fault.”
I didn’t make any claim that it was, Larry—you’re getting clownish here.
Here was my original post to you on this thread:
“I think you are downplaying the real policy differences between Bannon and Kushner and between Bannon and the people Kushner and Ivanka have got into the administration.”
I think you might settle down a bit and stop trying to bigfoot it here because of your contacts.
I said it was fake news. I said if you have different sources-—that it is NOT fake news-—put up.
You apparently can’t. I’m done.
What a jerk—I never said anything about the article being “fake” or not. You just started bullying me.
Aren’t you tough, “Put up or shut up” or something I never claimed. Double jerk.
I will just resist responding to your posts in the future, whether they are good or bad.
A welcome relief.
Resist my posts as well since you wont get any. You are the idiot.
Done.
