Jared Kushner, Mr. Trump’s son-in-law and now a senior adviser, also participated in the meeting at Trump Tower with Mr. Flynn and Sergey I. Kislyak, the Russian ambassador. But among Mr. Trump’s inner circle, it is Mr. Flynn who appears to have been the main interlocutor with the Russian envoy — the two were in contact during the campaign and the transition, Mr. Kislyak and current and former American officials have said.
But the extent and frequency of their contacts remains unclear, and the disclosure of the meeting at Trump Tower adds to the emerging picture of how the relationship between Mr. Trump’s incoming team and Moscow was evolving to include some of the president-elect’s most trusted advisers.
Guess they decided to reveal this before it also leaked?
Wish I could be a fly on the wall when Kushner and his brother discuss Jared's role in getting rid of the ACA and his brother's company who makes money selling ACA subsidized health insurance. Thanksgiving should be fun.
oh gee, a meeting in december with the russians. corect me if ai am wrong but that was AFTER the election, and not unusual for incoming president staffers to meet with foreign dignitaries. thread fail.
Just a couple of old friends getting together for a beer or two. Nothing to see here. move along.
Hell, everybody in the Trump organization has been massaging the bear's underbelly since 2015. Except Donald Trump. Who's never spoken to a Russian in his life. Never gave or spent a ruble to a Russian and for damn sure didn't have sex with that woman.

Trump didn't withold defensive missles promised to Poland just to please Putin
Trump didn't whisper a message to putin that he'd have more flexibility after the elction , before he won the election
Trump did not defend putin in a debate
Trump did not let russia have their way hacking government datdabse for years and when elections rolled around and Obama thought it might be useful to deligitimize trump, he bodly stood up to the russian bear and proclaimed, 'knock it off!'
If a russian connection with te us government needs to be investigtaed, the place to start is crystal clear!

Screw the fact that Trump is president! What Trump does now and what got him here doesn't matter. What only matters is what Obama did in 2011 or 2013 or when the last time he had a movement.
This whole Trump, Ivanka, Kushner power troika is really really annoying. Someone needs to tell this president that this is not, in fact, a monarchy or Trump Enterprises.
Apparently Kushner meets with all kinds of officials. Huh? He is a freaking realtor, and now Trump has given him like VP duties? Just wait--he's going to ease Eric and little Donny Jr. in, and it is going to be The Apprentice, Oval Office Version.
If Obama's family had been meeting with all kinds of officials, there would have been a banshee cry from the right like we've never heard.
Trump nepotism may be the most obnoxious part of the admin. Strictly amateur hour.
I think at this point the Trump administration would be better off listing who did not meet with the Russians the last several months.
