HE IS LITERALLY ON THE PAYROLL OF ANOTHER NATION
What is Jared Kushner's job in the administration?
I’d rather question why is Kushner there and why is he laying out a vision? We did not vote him into any gov position nor the senate we voted for has approved his candidacy.
This isn’t a grey zone anymore, it’s 50 shades of grey.

Would the Supreme Court rule that taking a bribe for a pardon was an "official act" by the president and immune from prosecution? I'm serious. If Trump announced he was selling pardons for $1M a pop, could anyone do anything about it, short of impeachment? (Which carries no prison sentence.)

Iowa City made buses free in August 2023 with a goal of lowering emissions and encouraging people to take public transit.
Now ridership is up, traffic is down, and the program is extremely popular.
So popular that the City Council has voted to extend it for another year.

MARKWAYNE MULLIN: We know the Navy or Coast Guard picked up survivors and sent them back to their countries. So now we're saying that they did it once and they didn't do it again?
BASH: Could that be because a lawyer in the Pentagon said you can't do that again?
