NEW- Kanye West met with Jared Kushner last weekend in CO, as West continues with an effort he has indicated is aimed to harm Biden.




President Trump’s son-in-law and senior adviser, Jared Kushner, met privately last weekend with Kanye West, the rapper who has filed petitions to get on the November ballots for president in several states.

The meeting took place in Colorado, where Mr. Kushner was traveling with his wife, Ivanka Trump, those familiar with the meeting said. Mr. West had been camping in Colorado with his family, and afterward flew to Telluride to meet with Mr. Kushner and Ms. Trump, but was not accompanied by his wife, Kim Kardashian West, those with knowledge of the meeting said.

After an inquiry, Mr. West tweeted Tuesday evening: “I’m willing to do a live interview with the New York Time about my meeting with Jared,” adding that they had discussed a book about Black empowerment called “PowerNomics.” He did not elaborate on his meeting with Mr. Kushner in a brief follow-up interview. He instead expressed anger about abortion rates among Black women and said he didn’t reflexively support Democrats.

A White House spokesman did not respond to an email seeking comment.

I need to go out and buy a tarp or two. There's bat shit falling everywhere and America is becoming Guano Country.

How a once respected artist could flush himself down the toilet like this - why.

My parents and I would go to Telluride every summer, off season. I've been back as an adult and was a little disappointed since they built Mountain Village (on the top of a mountain). Weird place up there.

When I went originally, it used to have only one road in, same road out and no airport too close by. You could really only drive in.
I knew some of the resident kids and a letter I wrote was printed in their paper over the passing of one of their residents, a friend of mine.

I'll probably visit at some point, maybe when Kushner and his girlfriend are behind bars.
