Jared Kushner to be named Trump senior adviser: media
U.S. President-elect Donald Trump will appoint his son-in-law, Jared Kushner, to the position of senior adviser to the president, media outlets reported on Monday, a potentially thorny choice in the face of anti-nepotism law.
The appointment of Kushner, first reported by NBC, had been anticipated but it had been unclear what his official role would be. The New York Times and ABC also reported the upcoming appointment. The Times reported that his title could be adjusted.
Like Trump, Kushner is a New York-based real estate developer with a wide net of business dealings that could pose potential conflicts of interest.
Kushner, who married Trump's eldest daughter, Ivanka, in 2009, helped guide Republican Trump to victory over Democrat Hillary Clinton in the Nov. 8 presidential election.
I don't see how this wouldn't go against the nepotism law.
 
Kushner is working with lawyers on how he would have to divest and distance himself from his family's business if he were to take a role in the Trump administration, the New York Times reported.
maybe get a divorce? lol

What specific nepotism statutes does this violate?
 
Do advisor positions land in the realm of "power positions"? As far as I've seen they just yap about whatever their focus is (like the department of the interior has a "senior advisor on Alaska" that I believe Ted rammed through sometime before I was born - and the only time you'll hear shit from the position is to relay Alaskan's thoughts on whatever [*cough*EPA*cough*] crap the Feds are trying to foist off on us.)

I was just thinking that!
All I know is he is a member fo the executive office. Maybe someone can clarify.

And I somewhat remember Hillary wanting bill in an "advisory position" :dunno:
 
So has the Donald appointed Kushner or is this speculation? The media seems to be speculating a great deal as of late, for what purpose one can only guess.
