“Quite the parallel between members of the decadent golf set cheating to get their kids into college and a decadent golf setter cheating to get his daughter and son-in-law clearances...' tweeted Walter Shaub, former director of the Office of Government Ethics. “Except for the national security

An ethics chief under former President Barack Obama on Thursday compared the college admissions scandal to President Donald Trump reportedly pressuring White House officials to grant top-secret security clearances to his daughter Ivanka Trump and son-in-law, Jared Kushner.

Shaub linked that controversy to the biggest college admissions bribery case ever prosecuted by the Department of Justice. On Tuesday, 50 people were charged in the case, including top financiers, CEOs, college sports coaches and Hollywood celebrities. The scandal resurfaced scrutiny over Kushner’s acceptance into Harvard University, given reports that he was admitted shortly after his father pledged $2.5 million to the Ivy League school.

“Nepotism displayed in the privileges given to President Donald Trump’s daughter Ivanka Trump and his son-in-law, Jared Kushner, constitutes a national security issue,” CREW tweeted, and linked to a Newsweek story that quotes its executive director, Noah Bookbinder.

What total BS by a Newsweek

Who you telling?

Any one check Chelsea Clinton?

White daddy will take care of it

It is the President’s prerogative to approve/assign clearances. Any PRESIDENT - past and present.

according fake news 🤣🤣🤣

I think we need to be investigating Ivanka's use of a private server that might have had classified e-mails. There is reasonable evidence her husband, and her father are compromised by foreign powers.

Exactly!

Because “they want it”, “they get anything they want”, “national security diesn’f matter”. “My Dad bought my way in life until he died. I am merely carrying the tradition.” Trump.

Oh please don’t stop MSM... 😂

No

I concur!!!

Really? That’s your Analogy? Your slip is showing!!

Except 1000% worse for everyone in the country. This comproises the country's security, potentially endangering millions of people. Not to mention illegal nepotism.

What are we teaching our children these days?

His dad took care of everything for him so why shouldn’t he break the rules for his kids. Since his dad did the wing thing at Wharton’s,did he do similar for his kids. Ivanka on the rowing team,Eric on the debate team, and Don Jr on football team.

🤮

Not it's not, it is so much worse.

Probly worse, though.

Narrator: it’s nothing like that

Jared Kushner is 'beating heart' of 'corrupt and deeply evil' Trump administration, says Harvard's Laurence Tribe“Jared Kushner of 666 Fifth Avenue is the beating heart of this unprecedentedly corrupt and deeply evil administration,” says Harvard's Laurence Tribe about the first son-in-law. Yeah love it, some Harvard goons interpretation of evil is just exactly what we needed, likely one of the best indicators that we are definitely on the right track. And as for the few of you whom find favor in his opinion, now you know what it was like during Obama era. waiting for the indictments to include Kushner and the Trump Crime family I read the article and didn’t find one scintilla of evidence or proof that supports these horrific accusations. Once again the left throws s—t on the wall to see what sticks.
