How can you "forget" to disclose your own foundation while lobbying for it at the U.N. during the transition?
"Jared Kushner failed to disclose his role as a co-director of the Charles and Seryl Kushner Foundation from 2006 to 2015...
The latest development follows reports on Friday indicating the White House senior adviser attempted to sway a United Nations Security Council vote against an anti-[Israeli] settlement resolution passed just before Donald Trump took office, which condemned the structure of West Bank settlements. The failure to disclose his role in the foundation—at a time when he was being tasked with serving as the president’s Middle East peace envoy—follows a pattern of egregious omissions that would bar any other official from continuing to serve in the West Wing, experts and officials told Newsweek."
File this under "lying by omission" along with "nepotism."
This thread once again proves that even the Right has admitted that Trump and Kushner are indefensible. They no longer even try to defend, they just pathetically try to deflect.
And Kushner is a grifter and criminal, just like his father and his wife and in-laws. None of this is forgetfulness, it's just continually trying to see just how much he can get away with.
Kushner is totally clueless and a definite weak link.
More importantly, the fact that Trump trusted Kushner enough to: run the campaign, negotiate peace in the Mideast, overhaul the entire governments cyber system, oversee Mexican and Chinese policy, fix the opioid crisis, overhaul veteran's care, and reform the criminal justice system makes one gigantic point.
That point being that Trump has horrendously bad judgment, does not have any idea how to appoint qualified people to positions, and that Trump's extremely bad judgment is the reason he and his associates are in so much trouble.
Trump, using his incredibly bad judgment and ignoring the rules of nepotism, appointed Kushner solely because he is Princess Ivanka's husband, and Ivanka is Trump's Achille's Heel. Sad!
Trump as president is strictly amateur hour.
^^^^^ 100% agree. Of all the con words Trump uttered, the most ridiculous was "I hire the very best and brightest people" (or words to that effect) He is HORRIBLE at choosing the right people, and his track record is about the worst ever. He goes through staff like I go through potato chips.
Kushner looks like a HS kid whose dad put him in charge of the company. He is even more over his head than his father in law, and is going to go down hard when these investigations get deeper into what went on. He has that deer in the headlights look, and I bet he wishes he had never gone into politics, especially on this particular team.
Doesn't matter if he is paid or not. Federal law requires high level officials to disclose their activities and investments. It's in the public interest to help guard against conflicts of interests and self-dealing.
Kushner has completely abused the disclosure process. He's had 78 omissions on forms and has had to refile several times. He's been fined for being late on disclosures and for his omissions. He failed to disclose $1 Bil in loans from various lenders. He's failed to disclose high level meetings with Russian officials.
What is he hiding?
What Federal law is that ? The one that is commonly ignored by everyone in Washington D.C.
The one that everyone gets to complete years later and be in compliance if they are found not to have disclosed it ?
Every last one of them - especially Kushner - are pathological liars. I'd like to see every last one of them including Trump, locked up for a few thousand years.

Out of curiosity, have you ever filled out these kinds of forms? I have.
And then undergone lie detector tests regarding them? I have. They are nothing to make light of or joke about.
