Jan. 6 committee member: Jared Kushner interview 'really valuable'

Source: The Hill

Rep. Elaine Luria (D-Va.), a member of the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot, said on Thursday that former President Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner’s interview was “really valuable” to the committee.

In an interview with MSNBC, Luria confirmed that Kushner had met with the panel, saying he is “voluntarily providing information to the committee.”

MSNBC anchor Nicolle Wallace read a passage from “Peril” by journalists Bob Woodward and Robert Costa, which touched on Nov. 7, 2020, when news outlets called Joe Biden’s win in the 2020 election. At the time Trump was playing golf, and Kushner, then-White House adviser Hope Hicks and other campaign advisors were figuring out who should break the news to the former president, according to the book.

“Can you characterize whether Jared Kushner ever had any question about the results of the 2020 presidential election?” Wallace asked Luria.

“You know, what I’ll say is that, you know, we were able to ask for his impression about these third party accounts of the events that happened that day and around that day. So he was able to voluntarily provide information to us, to verify, substantiate, provide his own, you know, take on this different reporting. So it was really valuable for us to have the opportunity to speak to him,” the Jan. 6 committee member answered.

She's been putting up with his shit for 40 years. Having her father tossed in the stockade for the rest of his miserable life would pay him back for everything he put her through.

Maybe Senator Lofgren is trying to make other people nervous in order to make them consider cooperating in order to get a deal…

that his interview with the J6 Committee was very valuable.

Think about it.

How much trouble do you think it would cause for the Tr**p family and TFG.

Immediately - amongst themselves - Ivanka, Don Jr & Eric would be at each others throats - thinking that Jared betrayed and outed them and their Daddy.

I believe that TFG would become a raging maniac if he thought Jared turned on him.
'
So whatever Jared did say in today's interview with the J6 Committee - I'd put it out there that his answers and his contribution to the committee - was very valuable and helpful.

I'd say that just to cause trouble in the Tr**p family and raise their blood pressures.

Jared probably said nothing off any import, but let the rest of the family think otherwise.

Not much wiggle room when Congress asks questions. All the coup plotters know this too, no wonder they are no shows.

But what's the deal with this word salad?

“You know, what I’ll say is that, you know, we were able to ask for his impression about these third party accounts of the events that happened that day and around that day. So he was able to voluntarily provide information to us, to verify, substantiate, provide his own, you know, take on this different reporting.

Like the other members of Clan Trump he made millions before, during, and presumably after TLG's maddest hours. He's got a lot of profiteering yet to answer for and they were "only" asking about Jan 6.
