Jared Kushner spoke out this week and said he finds recent reports of migrant flights rather troubling.
He suggested that Republicans, including Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, are using migrants as political pawns.
“I personally watch what’s happening, and it’s very hard to see at the southern border,” 41-year-old Kushner said in an interview. “We have to remember that these are human beings, they’re people, so seeing them being used as political pawns one way or the other is very troubling to me.”
Kushner’s comments came a few days after DeSantis claimed responsibility for sending two planes of migrants to Martha’s Vineyard, Massachusetts.
DeSantis seemed to be following the footsteps of the Texas and Arizona governors, who have been sending busloads of migrants to Washington, D.C. in recent months.
Massachusetts state Sen. Julian Cyr told CNN that approximately 50 migrants traveling by plane landed in Martha’s Vineyard last Wednesday, and were then taken to Martha’s Vineyard Community Services.
According to Cyr, there was no advance notice given to anyone in Massachusetts.
“The island scrambled to respond,” he told the network. “They essentially set up shelters, the equivalent of a hurricane or Nor’easter. They set that up in a matter of hours and these families received a meal. They were Covid tested and are spending the night in shelters at several churches on the island.”
Kushner further explained, “The migrants being flown or bussed from Republican states to more liberal areas, often as a means to publicize the conservative stance on immigration, are fleeing dangerous situations and seeking a better life in America. People don’t talk enough about the fact that these people are lured into these journeys by the coyotes, they’re paying a lot of money. I think 80 percent of women are sexually assaulted along the way. They come into America, they don’t have papers, many of them are exploited. So it’s a very sad situation.”
Kushner also went on to criticize President Joe Biden’s border policies, saying that the current administration should not have reversed the policies of former President Donald Trump (Kushner’s father-in-law).
DeSantis’ shuttling of migrants to Martha’s Vineyard comes as other Republican governors have done the same: moving refugees out of their states and to Democrat-led areas.
Kushner is a RINO himself.
Not only is Kushner a liberal RINO, he is trouble for America and the republcan party. I have great respect for polititions that are honest and true to the laws and traditions of our forefathers. I don’t understand the competive words between republicans when another party will lie, cheat, steal and do it together as one body does. Maybe things could change for better if the rinos were out and better people put in thier place. My thanks and gratitude are offered to all good public servants, may God bless Americia and all that that live and let live.
Secure the border and we wouldn’t have this mess. It’s all on the Biden administration.
Kushner needs to wake up. Or shut up. WE ARE ALL POLITICAL PAWNS. Don’t turn. Or be treated accordingly as a….turncoat. He needs to be shut out.
Exactly correct. It’s very possible that HE was a primary leaker to undercut his own Father in Law (Trump). He should be excluded from any future Trump administration. It’s possible that he has aspirations in terms of any global world order. Maybe he’s being “handled” by Soros.
He needs for his wife to slap him. He is a backstabber anyway and anyone who follows that butt head needs to deport themselves with him strapped to the tail section of the goodyear blimp flying over in the middle of the devil’s triangle. Reminds many of a Soros Puppet.
They focus on DeSantis yet the IGNOR Biden’s plane after plane FULL of illegals that he flew in the late hours of the night in secret. WHY aren’t you talking about that KUSNER or YOY Yahoo, you leftist RAG . You focus on DeSantis and Abbott cause the deflect and want to make these two guys the boogie men , that’s why., HYPOCRITS
Jared Kushner has never been elected to any position by anyone. He married Trump’s beautiful daughter and thus he was given a voice? He is a nobody. hear me, a nobody, we dont care what Jared has to say. Gov Desantis is the man. second in the driver’s seat next to DJT. I am a devoted Trump fan, don’t get me wrong, but Jared is a major douche!
Fuck Jared Kushner – who gives a damn what he thinks. DeSantis is doing what every Governor of the once great country should do .
Just because he is Trumps son on law doesn’t give him any platform to criticize anybody .🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕
Kushner is not too smart. Tx, AZ, FL wrestle with 10,000 times more than 50 that DeSantis flew in to his buddies. He is an IDIOT! FLY AND BUS MORE!
Wow! It seem like these so called Republicans are acting like they actually care about human beings. Bs get y’all axs outta here. Republicans are nothing more than evil criminals!
Misleading title; he refers to what’s going on at the southern border being bad and he also states Biden should NEVER have reversed Trump’s border policy.
Nobody cares what you think Kushner!!!
My thanks and gratitude are offered to all good public servants, may God bless Americia and all that that live and let live.
Jared Kushner has what experience as a Governor or leader of anything. That’s right nothing, he should be quiet and let the adults talk and make decisions. Just because you married into a political position, doesn’t make you a credible expert.
Kushner is wrong.. It is he who is politicized this because he sees DeSantis a threat to Trump for president and doesn’t like it.
I approve of what DeSantis did, Kushner is wrong! I live in Texas how about you leave your cushy home and come live in Texas on the Border for a while, then move around to other areas. You speak about something you are not experienced at, this will not get your father-in-law re-elected if you are for immigrants crossing the border. Just my humble 75-year-old opinion.
Hello Judy ! Plain and simple ! I like it ! It’s like that saying about not judging someone until you have walked for miles in his/her shoes. The other thing that must stop is how MOST people, not all, think they know what the other person is thinking before they even open their mouths. It’s not a good way to live. Just be responsible for yourself and try not to pre-judge. This would decrease much hatred and anger. Just my humble 59 -year old opinion. 🙂
I think Kushner is a perfect example of why Trump lost his re-election, he’s a pussy. Trump surrounded himself with these smart but balless people, Kushner is a weak person, Trump showed he can’t help but surround himself with weak people, who betray him. He’s a RHINO, just nlike when Trump endorsed Romney and hired all these leakers in his staff, bad judgement. Kushner did some great things in the Middle East, but what concessions did we give up to get his deal, no one ever talks about it. He would sell our souls to help Israel, he obviosly has no loyalty to Trump of the US. He’s probably on the take for Israel. Nothing against the Israel people but their interest are not always ours. Now Ivanka looks kind of stupid.
