Editor’s note: Few in the White House have security clearances. Note that it was the issue of the handling of “classified” personal emails that the 5 year long $125 million dollar congressional GOP investigation of “Hillary for Prison” (now cited as a Russian troll “tag”) was about.
With Kusner, we strongly suggest that his history of accessing massive amounts of highly classified data that has no relationship to his job, nobody knows what that is, or his background as the wastrel son of a mob slumlord, is espionage.
We believe Kushner is selling American secrets to our enemies in exchange for financial deals. Is the FBI asleep again? This one could kill us all, not just 17 kids… Gordon.

Here’s what the changes to the security clearance process in the White House could mean for Jared Kushner, President Trump’s senior adviser and son-in-law. (The Washington Post)
White House Chief of Staff John F. Kelly announced Friday that beginning next week, the White House will no longer allow some employees with interim security clearances access to top-secret information — a move that could threaten the standing of Jared Kushner, President Trump’s son-in-law.
Kushner, a senior adviser to the president, has been able to see some of the nation’s most sensitive secrets even as his background investigation has dragged on for more than a year.
White House officials have privately discussed concerns that Kushner’s clearance faces obstacles, according to people familiar with internal conversations, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe private talks.
Among the potential problems: repeated amendments that he had to make to a form detailing his contacts with foreign officials. Two U.S. officials said they do not expect Kushner to receive a permanent security clearance in the near future, The Washington Post reported last week.
In the meantime, Kushner has maintained an interim clearance that gives him access to top-secret and sensitive compartmented information — a rare level of access to hold for a long period of time, experts said. His elite position has allowed him to meet with foreign officials around the world and read the classified intelligence prepared daily for the president.
Gordon Duff posted articles on VT from 2008 to 2022. He is a Marine combat veteran of the Vietnam War. A disabled veteran, he worked on veterans and POW issues for decades.
Gordon is an accredited diplomat and is generally accepted as one of the top global intelligence specialists. He manages the world’s largest private intelligence organization and regularly consults with governments challenged by security issues.
Duff has traveled extensively, is published around the world, and is a regular guest on TV and radio in more than “several” countries. He is also a trained chef, wine enthusiast, avid motorcyclist, and gunsmith specializing in historical weapons and restoration. Business experience and interests are in energy and defense technology.

Not so much squirming since the deep state v. Nixon, E. H. Hunt, Watergate, Mil. I C and the peace protests. Mix that with the internet algorithms and (anti) social media, fear porn/hope porn/hate porn marketing tools deployed today and we are really getting the business.
The key word in Kelly’s announcement is “some”. I’ll have some pie or, some thing smells fishy or, I’ll do some work today and, don’t forget to give me some. You may ask; some of what? Well, everything of course.
frog, I read the link, it’s all very dramatic and ends with ” America is no Gaza”. Well that depends on who you ask. If you ask Native Americans it is worse than Gaza, because it is Gaza after 500 years.
But , there are some good points, and tons of speculation. I think to get a populace to a place of discernment, drama must be minimized and work with very basic facts. While it is not irresponsible to explore every angle, it is irresponsible to craftily formulate conjecture and present as food for a hungry mob.
There is a correlation to the red hair, nobody knows. Time.
Not too worry. People always have an initial theories on these shootings. We have no problem adjusting ours as new info comes in. Some like to jump ahead of the story with an instant who dun it, and some of us like to wait until we have more information. There are a lot of kids out there like this guy. This one did stand out though. I am still waiting to here how he got the long gun in his backpack.
Lies of omission are not your friend during security clearance processes.
This creates very poor morale among the security people who do this clearance work. You can just imagine how aghast they are, knowing that if Kushner can get a permanent clearance then that lowers the bar as a precedent. This is so critical that I am surprised no one has dropped a dime on him to knock him out of the box. You can just imagine what all is in his deep background file. The Israelis backing him have to stay in the background to not make it obvious.
Yea, and what are Trumps chances of getting one, if he’s not the president. ??? I’d have to say NIL. OMG
Kushner is but the runt of the President’s RKM piglets rooting omnivorously at the US (S)ecrets (O)f (W)ashington. Haaretz wonders this week if Kushner’s mounting debts will affect his role as senior adviser to our resident President at the White House. (Well, whadd’ya know!) If Jarred Kushner surrenders secrets to Israel he will be merely taking coals to Newcastle as our Intel Agencies as our VT elders know already share the bulk, if not the entirety of US classified information with that Apartheid monstrosity, not to mention financing them to the hilt for arms and illegal settlements and many more yet to be built. If we don’t recognize American democracy – you know the democracy so many brave soldiers died for down the years, well how can we pretend to see it in Israel and contribute blindly towards that anything but fanciful illusion.
