NEW: Trump names Jared Kushners father Charles Kushner, as the next US ambassador to France. Jared is of course Trumps son-in-law.
Trump already pardoned Charles in the dying days of his first presidency for charges including illegal campaign contributions, tax evasion, and witness tampering.

For people who didn't know much about Kushner Sr., his confirmation hearings will hopefully make it widely known.

Wondering if, as with background checks, they will dispense of confirmation hearings.

He was a Democrat until 2015. The charges stemmed from illegal contributions to Democratic

How quaint and archaic. Why not take the dictator's word that his appointees are all honorable and qualified?

(9,560 posts)12. He was a Democrat until 2015. The charges stemmed from illegal contributions to Democratic
candidates. It seems that he donated the max amounts from all of his different companies. Thanks to SCOTUS he can now give as much as he wants, and do so anonymously.
