Trump demanded Jared Kushner get top-secret security clearance despite officials' concerns, The New York Times reports

Trump's command to Kelly came last May, the day after the White House Counsel's Office urged him not to grant Kushner the clearance, the Times reported. The directive prompted two internal memos -- one from Kelly on being"ordered" to grant Kushner the clearance, and another from then-White House counsel Don McGahn listing the issues raised against Kushner, including from the CIA, and advising that he not receive the clearance, according to the paper.

NBC reported last month that Kushner's application had been rejected by two White House security specialists before they were overruled by their supervisor Carl Kline, prompting House Democrats to call for acting chief of staff Mick Mulvaney to revoke Kushner's access.Kline, according to veteran White House security official Tricia Newbold, repeatedly overruled her team's determinations that a person should not receive a security clearance.
