Jared & Ivanka Made $82 Million in 2017 While WH Advisers

[Throttlehead]

Newly-released financial disclosure forms show that Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump made a killing in outside income over the course of their work as advisors to President Donald Trump.

Washington Post‘s review of the disclosure records has found that the couple brought in at least $82 million over the last year.

Mrs. Trump’s earnings include $3.9 in profits from the Trump International Hotel in Washington, more than $2 million in pay and severance from the Trump Organization, and $5 million from her personal brand.

As for her husband, Kushner has earned over $5 million in income from an apartment complex he acquired last year. Reports also indicate that the minimum value of Kushner’s assets rose from $137 million to at least $174 million since March of last year.

Between Kushner’s business loans, his family’s business ventures, and his failure to disclose his stakes in various companies, critics have expressed concern that his income is mixed up in ethical complications and potential conflicts of interest.

At this pace they might be able to catch the clintons one day

I wish I owned an apartment complex.

I suck

Public service takes its toll. Thank God there are noble people like the Kushner's willing to take a bullet and do the people's business on our behalf.

“While” as opposed to “as” is a big difference

How much money did the Clintons have when they left the WH?
Did any of the Clinton administration receive trademarks from China while in WH?
Did anyone in the Clinton WH promote their own product brand while in the WH?
Kushner received 500 million loan after meeting company heads in WH.
Ivanka received 100 million from Saudi Arabia, then there is the gem from Trump ...
Trump removes sanctions on ZTE (even though they were considered a national security threat), then receives 500 million for Trump Indonesia project.

On and on.

During the presidential election, Donald Trump was a frequent critic of the Clinton Foundation for accepting donations from Saudi Arabia and other countries with bad human rights records.

"Saudi Arabia and many of the countries that gave vast amounts of money to the Clinton Foundation want women as slaves and to kill gays. Hillary must return all money from such countries!" Trump wrote in a Facebook post on June 13, 2016.


These grifters have no shame.

Do they have actual jobs with the government or are they just "advising"?

 

[Steve-French]

So what?

Legit people give speeches, sell books and claim their income as a charity....the only problem is the charity is themselves

They have jobs, but hey, they said they would work for free....hahah

So I'm guessing you think the Clintons are corrupt, right? Does this comment mean you also think Kushner and Ivanka are corrupt?

Just for those not getting it: using a position that's supposed to be public service to enrich themselves with the leverage of being in a government and the notoriety that comes with it... is wrong.

But I'm sure all that money she made off the hotel had nothing to do with people paying higher prices specifically for access to the first family. That'd be unheard of!.... this week.

Trumps Administration net worth.

These all seem like common people that just want to serve their country

 

[M3t4tr0n]

Conflicts of interest doesn't exist in Drumpfland. Only exists for the Clintons, not cult leaders or their brain dead spawn.

The Senate has a spine!

Senate blocks ZTE deal in rebuke of Trump deal

WASHINGTON — In a major rebuke to President Donald Trump, the Senate has adopted a measure that would block the administration's deal with Chinese telecom giant ZTE, pitting the president against Congress on what many senators say is an issue of national security........

They have jobs, but hey, they said they would work for free....hahah

Do they though? If they don't actually work for the government then are any laws being broken?

 

[Throttlehead]

Do they though? If they don't actually work for the government then are any laws being broken?

So why do they have offices in the west wing, why do they have security clearances, why are they involved with making policy? Why is Ivanka sitting in at a G20 meeting? Jared is in charge of Middle East peace, Government reform/Opioid crisis management,Criminal justice reform,Liaison to Mexico, Liaison to China, Liaison to the Muslim community.

Do they though? If they don't actually work for the government then are any laws being broken?

LOL! I'm sure you'd be totally OK with "advisers" to the president getting $80M-plus for influence if they were in a different party. It's sickening the way Republicans have abandoned all standards to defend this administration.

this sounds like some sleazy shit the trumps or clintons would say to get out of something thats obviously unethical.
