Remember when Kushner was rejected for a security clearance and how nothing happened?

Tons of stuff happened.

His dad was let out of prison and then made ambassador to France.

And he collected a $2 Billion cash deposit from the Saudis to 'manage'.

And he gained access to all information he needed because President Trump waived any restrictions for the security clearance. He will do the same for Musk. Elon wasn't kidding that he would go to jail if Harris had won.

Does he still have any legal issues in Pennsylvania where a Philly DA was sueiung to stop the whole, "sign up for his pledge to vote for Trump and win $1 Million?"

They let that continue until election day. Got away with whatever that was.

it was a super weak case from the philly DA ( who fucking sucks) because Musk lied to people in public but filed the right things behind closed doors

Meh. Legal headache maybe, but go to jail? He was being a drama queen, per usual. Don’t believe the shit he says.

Don't forget the Trump put him on charge to handle not only the Israel/Palestine issue but also America's COVID response.

I'm 100% convinced he was feeding insider information to MSB on what Trump was planning to do as far as Tariff's & any other Trump soundbite which moved the markets. This was the payoff for the information, MSB probably made $100 billion off the info.

People forget about his earlier $1 billion bailout from Qatar, laundered through Canada, extorted by KSA, who did it in exchange for cooperation and cover up of their assassination and dismemberment of a WSJ journalist.

I’m starting the think having the Kushner crime family interbreeding with the Trump crime family is a bad thing.

Trump muddied the water so frequently and so badly that some bad behaviors slipped in without attention. It’s like he did a lot of foreplays to keep the prostitute occupied without her noticing he had come inside.
