Hi everyone – I put down the Drano and bleach cocktail and decided to return for a bit.
First of all, a warm welcome back to the one and only Scout! Can Jude be far behind?
Second of all – I did kinda think that the Freeperati would at least wait until the coronation before falling on each others’ throats, but nope…
Donald Trump Requests Security Clearance for Son-in-Law Jared Kushner

Donald Trump has taken the unprecedented step of requesting his son-in-law, Jared Kushner, receive top-secret clearance to join him for his Presidential Daily Briefings, which began Tuesday.
Multiple sources tell NBC News Trump received his first briefing on Tuesday and designated both Kushner and Ret. Gen. Michael Flynn as his staff-level companions for the briefings going forward.
While Flynn has the necessary security clearance, Kushner does not, and it could take weeks — or even longer — for him to receive it.
Sounds reasonable.
Freepers?

How much do you want to bet they act like jerks and deny it or delay it until January 21?

Well, there is that….

I wonder why the President Elect wants to have family given security clearance.

This is a bad idea of his all around. The anti-nepotism laws aside, there is no reason his family members should know everything that is going on.

Maybe Jared is going to be America’s bankruptcy consultant?
To: CorporateStepsister
Yep. Very bad idea.

Of course, one criticizes The Darnold at one’s peril…

Trump is a master delegater(sic).
There’s too many available jokes here to pick just one.
And he values the advice from certain key people on this planet.
…as opposed to OFF-planet people that keep him up by talking to him at 3AM in voices only he can hear…
It’s been obvious, for some time now, that some of those people are related to him.
Only to people who can read.
But who wants advice from a trusted individual who doesn’t have all the facts???
So of course he’s asking for clearance. Nothing more to this story.

But for once, even the Freeperati are fed up :

I’m beginning to think that Trump has dreams of a dynasty.
This didn’t occur to you when he threw the corporate keys to Beavis and Butt-head?
No family member should have clearance mainly since it would create a situation where there would be more people that the Secret Service would have to protect and frankly I do not believe that anyone unelected or not part of the official staff should have access. If Jared runs around NY with classified papers, it would be a spy’s dream come true. Or worse, Jared gets kidnapped and ends up tortured into revealing everything.

I agree with you completely!And frankly, I don’t give a damn what Trump imagines that Jared knows that can “help” him; he’s damned dead wrong about that!

YEAH! Just WHO the fuck is this Jared guy anyway??
.

Sorry. Wrong Jared.

To: sargon
It’s a wrong and stupid move.
That’s because The Darnold is wrong-headed and stupid. What the fuck did you expect?
What is his expertise in regarding the national briefings?
Is he conservative?
Does he have vast experience in foreign and domestic affairs that he could offer so much to Trump?
Bad bad bad.
