Nobody elected Ivanka Trump. Nobody elected Jared Kushner. Nobody elected Rudy Giuliani.

Yet they have security clearances and travel the world on tax payer dime to "represent" the US government.

Give me a break about "unelected bureaucrats" you republican morons.

Sorry, I don't remember Chelsea Clinton as an official advisor to POTUS. I don't remember the Bush* twins having West Wing offices and tagging along with their dad to the G20.

NO, both parties don't do this.

his daughter works in the Treasury Department. Why don't the Democrats keep hammering the fact Bill Barr's name was brought up by trump on his call with Zelensky????

I also want to make sure Billy Barr and his family never work in government again.

And that ghoulish white supremacist is enacting policy that actively harms already at-risk communities. He's unelected, unaccountable, holds the levers of power, and has the President's ear.
