BREAKING: Kelly tells press Kushner's focus to shift from peace in Middle East to peace in Midwest

BREAKING...no link yet.



WASHINGTON DC: White House Chief of Staff John Kelly informed the press this morning that effective immediately, Jared Kushner's role in the Trump administration would be changing.

"Jared has made some outstanding contributions to this administration, and to every freedom-loving American," Kelly told reporters. "But due to the ever-changing nature of our world, as well as the bold, decisive, and innovative leadership of President Trump, we are beginning a new initiative with Jared fully at the helm...Peace In The Midwest."

Kushner will be in charge of restoring unity to Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, North and South Dakota, Nebraska, Ohio, and Wisconsin. His agenda includes a rigorous schedule of church suppers, yard sales, and open mic nights at local coffee houses.

When asked if Kushner's new assignment reflected the White House's reluctance to grant Kushner with full security clearance, Kelly scoffed at the notion. "Don't be ridiculous. Jared is both secure and clear. So clear that I can see right through him."

Ivanka Trump could not be reached for comment.

BTW I was taken in by this hoax.

Kushner will be in charge of restoring unity to Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, North and South Dakota, Nebraska, Ohio, and Wisconsin. His agenda includes a rigorous schedule of church suppers, yard sales, and open mic nights at local coffee houses.

He could try to establish peace in the WH and move up from there. Spending time taming criminals might prepare him for his future among convicts.

But then I remembered tRump’s favorite hideout is Mar-a-Lago. Is there no safe space from these people? At least where I live is often forgotten. Even map makers have left us off of Florida maps from time to time. Some locals refer to us as LA. Lower Alabama. I think Bama got screwed in that deal.

He may be qualified as a barista at one of the coffee houses, but that's debatable.

Well played, Miles!
