What a catalogue of disgusting, malicious behavior. Imagine doing just one of the heinous acts that criminal has committed. How would one live with oneself? He is a sociopath. I hope he pays for his shamefulness one day.

I love writing like this, because it puts in one place the entire case against (here) Kushner. The Covid/blue state thing is the most noxious of it all. Why he hasn't been charged, and how Ds haven't been beating on this over and over and over are mysteries to me. It's the most basic element of patriotism -- someone decided it was cool for a pandemic to kill other Americans.

But stuff like this should be fair. It's not fair to say "certainly" there's no passion between Ivana and him. We don't know that. That's private. It's not really true that he turned "the tabloids" against Democrats. Rupert Murdoch's propaganda rag the Post has been anti-D for decades now. And it's not fair with charging him with failing to solve Israel-Palestine or the opioid crisis. What's legitimate is to criticize his appointment to those posts and Trump even floating the idea that he could succeed. There's *plenty* to make the case against him -- as you so aptly did -- without giving the traitors/critics nuggets on which to grab to say that the article is just a "hit job".

Why hasn't he been charged with felonies for his failure to disclose meetings in his security clearance applications? It seems like others in the Trump orbit have been charged with similar failures. Why does he skirt, Merrick? Even if you are utterly resistant to charging a former president (with which I completely disagree), he's not a president and people in prior administrations have been charged many, many times before. If you need some guidance, Merrick, give John Dean a call.

Great write-up or exposé more properly. My personal suspicion regarding Jared is that he's a low-key confidential informant -- a rat

Greg, you close with the $64M question - why hasn't Kushner been charged? Who is protecting him? My guess, his tabloid buddies have plenty of dirt on anyone in a position to charge him and they know he will use it. After all, the little snot is his father's son.

Excellent Greg, Thank you

Let's hope he gets more than 2 years

He may not be a psychopath like MBS, but he most certainly is a sociopath. He has many of the same characteristics as does his father-in-law, right down to the less than affectionate affect he shows for his wife and children in public. Maybe he doesn't believe in public displays of affection, but somehow, I doubt that's the issue.

One of the dreams I have resulting from the Trump maladministration is to be able to see Slenderman in a perp walk, and probably holding back sobs of outrage while he does. He really DOES seem to think that he's above all that. He thinks he's safe from consequences down there in Surfside, FL, where the NY and NJ rich retire while waiting for their mansions purchased with ill-gotten gains to be built. I hope that he's not. If he isn't brought to justice, former presidential advisor or not, then there really is no justice for anyone. If nothing happens to him, it will prove once and for all that justice is not blind -- that if you're rich, white, and/or well-connected, you can do whatever you want in the world.

Jared and passion.

My guess is that he is a grey appearing slithering shark that finds a more sexual frenzy appetite in power than women.

I continue to wonder about all that missing money. Is anyone on the trail?

I will spit on all of their graves on behalf of my deceased grandparents who were gassed at Chelmno and on behalf of both of my parents, victims of the Holocaust. I hope to remain alive to do so.

The history is so revolting and morally repulsive that I have to force myself to read it all the way through

This is an elegantly written piece about a group of absolutely treacherous creatures.

They need to have every asset seized, spend years in prison then flee to Saudi Arabia where so many other despicable people have lived out their remainder days.
