Susie Wiles was Jared Kushner's choice, and I would wager he and/or Ivanka are behind this Uncle Joe Aug 13 #1

to decrease the spotlight on both.

In this video Michael Wolff states that Kushner is still "bigfoot" in the White House and that Susie Wiles was his choice for Chief of Staff beginning at about the 9:00 minute mark

It was also Kushner who first publicly stated that Gaza could be "a great investment" for the wealthy long before *rump threw a wrench into the ceasefire agreement at the beginning of his presidency.

Non stop echoing of lies. I fail to see the value. Those who work for him must know what they are doing by the non stop mendacity. And if they are doing the blitz Grieg of lies to cover up for Epstein stuff they are compounding those felonies. Yo trump whores, there are only so many jobs on Fox, post 47. Thx for posting My Friend. Always enjoy Seth.
