Almost inhuman. Those dead eyes and that waxy face. I would put nothing past him. He is Damien all grown up.

That man, an American journalist, was brutally murdered and Kushner needs to pay for this crime as if he committed the murder. Damien indeed and funny how his debt at that 666 building suddenly disappeared. Money over a human life - unbelievable!

That’s what he appears to be.

I’m sure Turkey knows. Which means they own brillant bright boy Jared.

I will feel better about feeling angry about this after other media organizations confirm it.

I find only a Daily Mail story so far but it just quotes from the Spectator.

21. the headline is misleading
Mon Nov 4, 2019, 03:06 AM

the caveat "if true" is employed several times, including in the heading, of the Spectator article.
And the allegation against Kushner is that he may have "green lit" an arrest .. which in the twitter account becomes "brutal murder." Sexier headline .. but straying somewhat from the content of the reporting.

This is some incendiary stuff (leaving off the florid rhetoric) .. and I just kind of hope somebody hasn't gotten themselves way out over their skis. I'm waiting to see how much of this will actually be confirmed.

I don’t know if I can bear it. This is the kind of thing that can happen when you have a venal, craven individual like trump in a position where he is way, way out of his element.

to put SA in a tight spot, and then stopped dripping even while clearly indicating that he had more than he was revealing. It is also known that Jared buddied up to MBS and shared with him some things he learned from reading the intelligence reports he was requesting in such an unusual volume.
