His brother, Joshua was supposed to be the real deal, smart, high tech entrepreneur, married to Karrie Kloss, but then, I guess, his DNA kicked in, from Wikipedia:
"Kushner owns 50% of JK2 (also known as Westminster Management), a real estate management company, his brother Jared owns the other 50%. In April 2021, a Judge ruled that JK2 was found to be have committed "widespread and numerous" violations Maryland's consumer protection laws at Baltimore-area properties by collecting debts without the required licenses, charging tenants improper fees, and misrepresenting the condition of rental units.[32][33][34]
Kushner's JK2 was also featured in an episode of Netflix's Dirty Money series titled "Slumlord Millionaire."[35] The episode was based on an expose from ProPublica accusing the company of abusing tenants rights, leaving homes in disrepair, humiliating late-paying renters and suing mostly poor immigrants to garnish their wages calling them a "tier-1 predator".[36]
During the COVID-19 pandemic, JK2 filed a significant number of lawsuits against tenants for debt collection and eviction, despite an eviction moratorium being in place.[37]"
So, lovely people the lot of them. Although I do like Karrie Kloss, she's doing great stuff with Kode With Klossy, can't figure out how these pieces fit together. Also, fun watching her tower over Bill Nye on some science special of his that she was in.
It must mean something, Ivanka had to convert to marry him.
He just seems so incredibly fucking stupid, like he doesn't understand what's mostly obvious to most people. He also comes off as nearly completely amoral, it's truly all about the Benjamins for him.
I believe I recall that Natalie Portman once said that she thought that he was the dumbest guy in their class at Harvard.
Ditto. My pediatrician chain smoked unfiltered cigarettes, probably I"m thinking the late 1950's, early 1960's.
My wife's mother smoked throughout 4 pregnancies. Two of the kids have had life long lung issues, cause and effect was never established, but still.

What you're doing is of a piece with election deniers, you can find something on the internet that supports any outlandish belief. In the old days Big Tobacco found doctors who claimed that smoking is good for you.
If everything is a conspiracy then nothing is a conspiracy. Charles Manson said, "total paranoia is total awareness" and that seems to be your mindset.
100%. Every gun owner should be tested and be required to have a license, like drivers are, every gun should be registered, like cars are, every one should have to re-register every 2 years, like cars are.
Guns should be permitted to people who need them, whether they're ranchers or people who live in rural areas or inner city businessmen who transport a lot of cash and that's it. Permits should be hard to get and the laws about them strictly enforced. Gun owners should have to have insurance and bullets should be extremely expensive.
Show the world you have a little dick someway else. Gun nuts are the real groomers of kids in our society. Why don't the cops in London routinely carry
guns? Huh?
If every idiot in America didn't own 2 guns, then police encounters wouldn't turn lethal so often, the police have to constantly worry about everyone they encounter being armed. Let's de-escalate the anger in our society and more guns isn't the way.
Oh, and everyone in a well regulated militia should be allowed to have guns, too, just like the 2nd Amendment states.
Well, go back to Copernicus, I think the Catholic Church back then can be accurately described as being on the right.
Then we have the Scopes trial, where they didn't want to believe in evolution and the cigarette smoking isn't bad crowd. Now the anti-vaxxers and climate change deniers and the people running around claiming the earth is 6000 years old..
Seems to be a pattern, no? Conservatives are, by their nature, afraid of change, afraid to think about things differently and with an open mind.
Or to understand anything, really.
I'm still trying to understand what the "left wing" is. You throw that term around a lot as some sort of signifier, but what does it signify? Are there boxes that can be checked off and when a certain number are checked, that's "left wing"?
If it's left wing to provide food stamps for families, say, are subsidies to large agricultural companies left wing, too? If it's left wing to want Medicare for all, is it left wing for the government to subsidize medical research and provide medical care for veterans, too?
If it's left wing to support DACA is it left wing for large farms to use illegals to harvest crops? I'd appreciate it if you could define this term or, maybe, stop using it as if everyone knows what it means.
If it's left wing to be a socialist was the $1T tax cut to corporations (primarily) left wing, too?
Well Trump has made several stabs at suspending or subverting the Constitution. Let's see, he wanted 2 more years added onto his term, tried to overturn an election and stop the transfer of power, ignored the emoluments clause. And Biden did what?
As far as confiscating personal property, why don't you ask the farmers in Texas whose land was taken to build the wall that Mexico was going to pay for. What land did the Biden administration confiscate?
And listen, asshole, one more time, every government that suspends a constitution and confiscates personal property is not Nazi, per se, that doesn't define Naziism. Nazis were a specific group that behaved a specific way, the term didn't exist before them. Since Hitler was elected you might as well claim that elections cause Naziism.
And, further, just to be clear, you're a miserable little shit who knows nothing, zippo, nada. Confine your fevered hallucinations to your mom's basement, please..
Did you actually read this? It seems unlikely - one mention of vaccinations, no definitive cause and effect cited. From Science magazine:
"So I've been getting questions about what this means for vaccination: if we're causing people to express Spike protein via mRNA or adenovirus vectors, are we damaging them just as if they'd been infected with coronavirus? Fortunately, the answer definitely seems to be "no" - in fact, the pseudovirus paper notes near the end that the antibody response generated by vaccination against the Spike protein will be beneficial in two ways, against infection and against the Spike-mediated endothelial damage as well. "
From Immunize BC:
"The mRNA vaccines work by teaching our cells how to make a harmless spike protein that triggers an immune response inside our bodies. The body then makes antibodies to help you fight infection if the COVID-19 virus enters your body."
https://www.factcheck.org/2021/07/scicheck-covid-19-vaccine-generated-spike-protein-is-safe-contrary-to-viral-claims/
Etc, etc. Listen, go through life believing whatever you'd like, it makes no difference to me. The thing that really is bothersome, though, is how your poorly reasoned stance might effect people who can get covid from you and other idiots.
You realize, I'm sure, that covid mutates in unvaccinated people, putting us all at further risk, continuously. And, hey, have you heard that vaccines cause autism? A lot of people are saying that's true!
Let me guess, you're a Gary Null fan.
What's a Nazi? Is that your word for someone whose ideas you don't like, similar to calling them a communist or socialist?
I haven't heard of Biden committing genocide, or throwing Jews out of their jobs and homes and rounding them up, but maybe you have some links that can credibly claim he is?
Because that's what Nazis do.
If you live your life only consuming media that enables bias confirmation, you'll never learn anything, although maybe that's your goal. Just cocooning in what you want to read and watch, so as not to have to think about anything or do any research:

I'm wondering if you know if there are any openings for membership in the Flat Earth Society, I'm guessing you might be on its Executive Committee.
If you post shit like this just to irk some libs, I get that, no problem. But if you actually believe this stuff, good luck in the real world, you're gonna need it.
Sure, I'll bet he's just been waiting to be asked all this time.
If not for big oil, we'd be taking trolleys and driving cars powered by steam, etc. Big oil was not a help with public mass transportation, either. Plus, we, the taxpayers, paid for highways and road repairs to aid their cause. Plus, plus, the MIddle East would be a lot different today.
As an aside, I checked with my contact at the NYC DOT (for real), who project managed the Times Square transformation that was pictured in the article you posted, and he has never heard of Andy Cohen, the author.
True and it's a tantalizing idea, too. What could go wrong?
Sorry, pretty much apples and oranges. Sure, driverless buses, driverless cabs, tests in mock towns.
I appreciate the effort but this in no way addresses the situation of big, densely populated cities dealing with driverless cars. With an infinite number of cars being driven into these large city centers for whatever reasons, every day
I mean, like Hong Kong or some such, not Arlington, Texas. Yes, it's possible it could work in cities with a population of about 500,000 in spread out geographic situations, but not a major inner city.
In his dreams
An impressive expression of stupidity. Congrats!
Wtf? Do your handlers know you're on a computer?
You'd have to come off as a lot smarter to be fairly considered an idiot.
CRT is a college level curriculum, if you can post one legit link that shows it being taught in elementary or high school, I apologize. Side bet that you've never read the 1619 Project or actually know what CRT is. I guess Tucker told you it's bad!
You insult all hard working public school teachers and administrators with this nonsense.
It's doubtful they've had some "come to honorable behavior" moment. They are dishonest hacks running a company that provides ordinary products in which the marketplace shows no interest..
If they were the types of people who would give up their salaries as a show of good faith, they would be the types of people who wouldn't have been lying to investors forever.
Ain't gonna happen, might as well ask Kay to cut us all checks for the amounts we've lost investing in this shite company.
In this instance, going against Gridlock Sam is going against expert opinion. I'd bet the writer of the article you posted, who is not a world famous traffic planner, will be proven wrong in time, instead.
You still don't address the issues of people "driving" into a city and what becomes of their cars once there, which was 1 of my 2 points. Taxis are irrelevant in these cases, hanging around or no.
The Andy Cohen who wrote the article you posted is apparently a NYC Council member. While his heart is in the right place, he's hardly an expert.
https://nyc.streetsblog.org/2017/05/26/council-member-andy-cohen-knows-broadway-wont-get-safer-if-it-stays-wide-and-fast/
This goes against the consensus opinions I've read, it's the opposite. I'll give you two examples that I've read about. (See anything by Sam Schwartz, aka Gridlock Sam, for more)
Right now if you drive into midtown Manhattan for an afternoon meeting, you're going to pay at least about $40 an hour for parking. But why park, if your driverless car can just keep circling the block until your meeting's over. Or you're done shopping or eating at a restaurant. This will clog the streets unimaginably, but not as bad as when you take the next part into account.
Driverless cars will most likely be equipped with sensors to make the car stop automatically when it detects pedestrians. Imagine, now, people crossing the streets willy nilly, with disregard for the traffic signals and the insane, continuous, stopping of cars that will follow.
The writer seems to be describing a super-Uber world where city dwellers won't need cars because they'll be chauffeured everywhere by robots. But ignores the large population of cars used by workers, commuters, shoppers, visitors, etc., people who need to drive into or around the city.
Yeah, I don't think so. But please, believe whatever you'd like and definitely don't post any links with fact things in them to support your claims..
I guess we're not the first people to go back and forth on this one:
https://www.truthorfiction.com/can-self-driving-cars-be-trapped-by-a-salt-circle/
The photo you posted was of an art project from 2017. I'm not saying the salt circle wouldn't still stop a car, but the technology has changed a bit since then.
Wait, so he just got up one morning and thought, hey, I'll surround a car with salt and see if that effects the auto-driving mechanism?
To me, it's more - or just as - likely the white stuff was photoshopped in and the rest written as a goof.
On the other hand, it was on the internets, so there's that. Plus, it could be a failure of my imagination.
We have a car with one of those lane departure pingers, too. I like it, it helps me re-focus on driving when, maybe, my attention has been diverted elsewhere.
Driverless cars will never be allowed in any larger cities, but I don't see why long haul trucking, for example, can't employ them.
It was a brilliant book and movie. How have we not "evolved" beyond this, though?
Cruz and Hawley and Stefanik and DeSantis are all also Harvard Law grads, too. Maybe it should rethink its admission standards?
No use letting professional, certified educators decide how to implement education, let's have the politicians and parents run the schools.
I remember reading, Inherit the Wind, maybe in middle school. Freakin' unbelievable that those same arguments are still being played out.
I think one of the goals of the conservative movement in this country, probably going back to the 1960's, is to defund public education. To return it to religious and family control, completely.
That's a big reason why we see continuous attacks on teachers, teachers' unions, and curriculums. The latest iteration is to attack non-existent CRT teaching and sex grooming.
Many of the people leading this charge are still burned up about de-segregation and the teaching of evolution instead of the Bible. They tend to live in places where funding for public schools is below national average and the illiteracy rate is above.
Climate change is fun!

And we believe this, why?
Is Adam@adamthealright a well known someone, who has real world credibility and regularly posts fun facts?
It seems like the actual idiot is the one who took the time to buy, transport and lay out a massive amount of salt.
Yes, that would be grand, although he seems to have no shame, like several of his sidekicks. You'd think normal-ish, rational people would be embarrassed by his antics, but I guess that's not the case.
I agree with you about Biden coddling China, this is one of the worse things he's done in that regard:
https://www.forbes.com/sites/tommybeer/2020/09/22/ivankas-trademark-requests-were-fast-tracked-in-china-after-trump-was-elected/?sh=73a7da2a1d60
This incoherent rambling of your s that goes on forever is a dialogue killer. Also, maybe, get an adult relative to help with your grammar and spelling.
And, ff you're so anti-China, stop wearing the MAGA hats that are made there and stop shopping at WalMart, where just about everything is made there.
Trying to imagine him as head of the Judiciary Committee is truly mind boggling.
But will he ever get called out? We've already seen former wrestlers state unequivocally that he knew about the problems and purposefully ignored them.
If you drive the getaway car for the bank robbers, you're guilty, too.
Technically, he wasn't a boy molester so much as an enabler of boy molesting. Does that make him a sleazy, dishonest, moron? 100%.
David Remnick is great, in general, but it's hard to see the point of this article, having been written 6 years ago. It just seems like more of the same, and the same.
Michael Moore is desperate to remain relevant. He had his day, he was important at one time, but it's past. He was never a particularly astute political analyst, his glory was about the environment and business.
Trump has zero chance of being re-elected. These endless articles and speculation about him are just clickbait and fill the need to provide content for the 24/7 news cycle.
Some people are saying that it's boring and we should get on to the next thing. And let the wheels of justice continue grinding.
Or, as the great philosopher (and convicted rapist), Mike Tyson, said, "everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth".
But I'm sure it's very cool with you that Grassley just got re-elected at age 89.
We can go back and forth about this forever, I think. My bottom line is that I believe overuse of a word, like Nazi, serves to diminish the impact of the history of the word and what it represents. If every evildoer is a Nazi, then who is a Nazi?
It's sort of like black people using the N word, but in reverse. They are partially de-stigmatizing something painful from the past by its use, and I don't want to see that happen with Nazi. The word, in my opinion, should continue to serve to represent a singular atrocity.
Maybe the people you describe can be called "psychopathic shit heads", I think that pretty well describes them. The KKK weren't Nazis and neither was Idi Amin or Mao, they were crazy, murderous, another word. Stalin was a fascist dictator who killed 3M Ukrainians but he fought the Nazis.
