The New York Times is hitting so far below the belt it should be shut down. It is running stories about Jared Kushner that imply he is using government for personal gain. There is no proof.
Kushner has known Joshua Harris since before White House days. Harris wanted a high level job in the Trump administration. So, Kushner met with him to discuss this possibility. Shortly after the meeting, Harris made a loan of $184 million to help one of Kushner's properties. It is a terrible injustice to imply those two events were related. The Times should be ashamed.
Then Kushner met the an old business friend, Michael Corbat, about another White House position. Corbat quickly loaned Kushner $325 million on another property.
Both running government and private business are about doing business with friends. To say there is some improper about one day talking government and on another day talking business is absurd--or even talking both at same time. It is just what old friends do.
Implying there is something shady in following time honored business practices is nothing but character assassination:
