Jared Kushner scores first major bipartisan deal for Trump in Congress
« on: May 11, 2018, 12:34:01 am »
An effort led by senior White House adviser Jared Kushner to both increase prison security and provide a pathway out for some 4,000 well-behaved prisoners has scored a major, and lopsided, victory, the first major bipartisan deal for the Trump White House.

The House Judiciary Committee voted 25-5 to back the “First Step Act,” a shocking turn after the media had earlier written off chances that it would pass.

“We see it as a big win,” said an administration official involved in the talks between House Republicans and Democrats.

I thought prison reform was an odd project for Kushner until I remembered his shady financial dealings and family history.

This is what he would do, make it easier to get out of prison since his dad was in one.

Just more evidence of how liberal the GOP has become.

AG William Barr: "I'm recused from that matter because one of the law firms that represented Epstein long ago was a firm that I subsequently joined for a period of time."

Alexander Acosta Labor Secretary resigned under pressure concerning his "sweetheart deal" with Jeffrey Epstein.  He was under consideration for AG after Sessions was removed, but was forced to resign instead.
