The DOJ Just Spent The Last Five Years Investigating Hunter Biden. When In The Hell Are They Going To Investigate Jared And Ivanka?

1. According to American Oversight, “Jared Kushner received approval from the Office of Government Ethics (in January of 2017), which allowed him to work in the White House, and it was initially reported that Ivanka Trump would not take a formal role in the administration. After it was announced in late March 2017 that she would officially become a federal employee in the White House, American Oversight submitted FOIA requests seeking communications between Ivanka Trump and several federal agencies, eventually filing a lawsuit against the agencies for failure to respond”


2. Sometime, around July 14, 2017, Kushner updated a federal disclosure form needed to obtain a security clearance three times and added more than 100 names of foreign contacts through the updates after initially providing none at all.”

3. ”For more than a year, Kushner only had a temporary security clearance, but he was allowed to access sensitive national security information that very few people had access to. He attended classified briefings, and read Trump’s daily briefings.” Kushner evidently asked for more top secret material than anyone else.

4. “In September 2017, documents released by American Oversight as well as independent news reports confirmed that both Kushner and Ivanka Trump had been using personal, private email accounts during their time working in the White House. Reports also surfaced that they had set up a private server, ijkfamily.com, in December 2016 in preparation for Kushner to join the White House.”

4. On February 23, 2018, after the Rob Porter scandal (He was Trump’s top aide who had frequent access to him, and had to resign because he had beaten two of his ex-wives), Chief of Staff John Kelly reviewed the security clearance operation. At that time, Kelly downgraded Jared Kushner's security clearance "Interim Top Secret" to "Interim Secret," and downgraded the clearances of other White House staff members as well.

When asked by reporters about this, Trump said Kelly was given the responsibility to do this, and yet Trump kept on pushing Kelly to find out when Kushner would receive his permanent security clearance.

5. In May of 2018, “According to four officials who spoke with the NYT, then-White House counsel Don McGahn recommended to the president that his son-in-law not receive the top security clearance, after an FBI background check determined that foreign officials could possibly maintain some sort of sway over Kushner, due to his business holdings. The next day, President Trump ordered then-Chief of Staff Kelly to override concerns and grant Kushner the high-level clearance. The action was such a concern to McGahn and Kelly — who both left the White House in 2018 — that each wrote up an internal memo outlining the precedent-breaking action.”

As we all know, this is just the tip of the iceberg. First, one has to question why the Government Department of Ethics allowed Trump to hire Jared and Ivanka, which “undoubtedly violated the intended purpose of the anti-nepotism statute.”

According to Citizens for for Ethics, “Overturning decades of precedent, however, the [Jeff Sessions’] Department of Justice’s Office of Legal Counsel released an opinion shortly after Mr. Kushner’s appointment concluding that, based on another statute, the president is exempt from the anti-nepotism statute when hiring White House employees.”

As early as September of 2017, the [Sessions’] DOJ was aware that Ivanka and Jared were using their personal email accounts to conduct government business, and there were no legal repercussions for that. DOJ set a precedent that they continued to follow under William Barr, and throughout the Trump Administration, which is that Trump and his daughter and son-in-law could do whatever the hell they wanted to. The obvious question is whether Jeff Sessions, William Barr, Don McGahn, and General John Kelly have been investigated for their roles in this and other issues. And, why the hell didn’t McGahn and Kelly say or do anything about this at the time?

And, yet, the DOJ investigation of Hunter Biden, which began under Bill Barr in 2018, and continued under Merrick Garland, never investigated (to our knowledge) Ivanka’s and Jared’s behavior when Trump was president, or since—despite Jared receiving two billion dollars from the Saudis. Why is that?

Garland is scared that it would look political
