So what just happened re Kushner meeting with the Russians in December?

I only half heard. The MSNBC crowd is jumping up and down about the print press doing great reporting. I agree btw. This stuff is going great guns. No wonder he's trying to discredit them.

in December and took Kushner with him to the meeting. So Kushner becomes another person in the administration to meet with a Russian official.

And I haven't seen complete reporting but it is being insinuated that Kushner did not yet have the authority to have these types of contacts. They were still wrangling over his clearances and trying to determine if he could actually have a job in the WH because he is Trump's son-in-law.
