Kushner shouldn't have a movie pass, let alone any security access. What took so long for them to act on this ?

And now we find out just how far Trump will take his nepotism. Does it extend to in laws.

Default Jared Kushner's clearance downgraded

Quote:
Interim security clearances for White House aides, including Jared Kushner, were downgraded last week after chief of staff John Kelly stipulated new changes to how officials access the nation’s secrets, according to sources familiar with the matter.

Aides who previously operated on “top secret” interim clearances saw their access changed to “secret,” a classification for less sensitive material.
apparently trump can still exempt him if he wants.

This has nothing to do with Kushner, it's just a new policy that affects all White House aides with interim clearances.

It really depends on how far up the chain, these previous security clearances went. But a general downgrade was still a good idea. I had quite a high clearance in the Navy and for the Department of Energy, but never worked on anything that really demanded it.

I tend to think this is showboating.

Simple. He's in the Trump family. Rules don't count for them...or most anyone involved with them. Rules are for regular people like you and I.

He never should have been in the Administration in any capacity anyway.

All he did was fly around on TAXPAYER MONEY, trying to solicit and sell policy and favor to get funding for his family business!!!

He should have been kicked out when they did a paper shuffle to try and allow his sister to SELL EB-5 Visa's to Chinese for the agreement to Invest in Kushner Properties. (They should have been ARRESTED) !!!!!

His paper work has been a trail of lies and aims to hide and cover up information, since he was first on the stage of this Administration. I would hope that Mueller's Final Disclosures, would land him and his family in Jail.... not for 6 months, but many years. With stiff fines and penalties.

Kelly to Kushner. "You need to be this high to go on the ride."

This is your take away from this.
