    Jared Kushner meeting with Vladimir Putin to discuss international conflict. Yet another entry in a miles long list of unqualified people performing some of our nations most important tasks. But clearly, DEI was the problem with our government’s competency, not nepotism and thinly veiled blatant corruption. Not to say that the latter haven’t always been problems.

      He’s a special envoy for peace. What qualifies him for that still alludes me (being married to the president’s daughter aside).

      Also I found it funny that one of the special envoy positions is named: Special Presidential Envoy for American Tourism, Exceptionalism, and Values

        He’s son of a rich criminal with long ties to the Likud Party who is a personal friend of Netanyahu. He’s probably Trump’s handler for the Israelis, or is at least attempting to be.
