Dem Rep.: I Think Kushner 'Intentionally Omitted' Meetings With Russians

Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY) said Friday that he believed the Presidents son-in-law and senior adviser Jared Kushner intentionally left off dozens of meetings with foreign officials on his application for a top secret security clearance.
The New York Times reported on April 6, citing unnamed people with direct knowledge of the omissions, that Kushner had left out dozens of contacts with foreign leaders on officials on the application form. Excluded from the form, the Times reported, were a December meeting with the Russian ambassador to the United States and another meeting the same month, arranged at the ambassadors behest, with the leader of a Russian state-owned bank.
Its hard to imagine that when you have a form that says you answer completely under penalty of perjury, you dont omit anything under penalty of perjury, that you omit dozens of meetings with foreign officials, when they specifically ask about that, Nadler told CNNs Kate Bolduan Friday.
Nadler was one of five signatories of a letter to the FBI and the National Background Investigations Bureau Thursday requesting that Kushners interim security clearance be revoked until the omissions were answered for.

For as long as there is no law enforcement against Kushner and the rest of the criminal lot, they will continue to think that they are above the law. We cannot expect the Trump people to voluntarily comply with laws that, in practice, don't apply to them.
