Abbe Lowell, Kushner’s attorney, challenged aspects of the account by the Democratic chairman of the House Oversight Committee.

By Tom Hamburger and Tom Hamburger Investigative reporter focused on the intersection of money and politics in Washington Email Bio Follow Josh Dawsey Josh Dawsey Reporter covering the White House Email Bio Follow March 21 at 4:34 PM House Oversight Committee Chairman Elijah E. Cummings said Thursday that an attorney for Jared Kushner told him in December that the president’s son-in-law uses the encrypted messaging application WhatsApp for official business, including with people overseas.

A White House spokesman acknowledge receiving Cummings’s letter Thursday and said the chairman’s requests would be reviewed.The use of messaging services such as WhatsApp could run afoul of White House policy and the Presidential Records Act, which prohibits White House officials from sending a record “using a nonofficial electronic message account” unless the messages are copied to an official account within 2o days.

According to Cummings’s letter, Lowell said during their December meeting that Kushner was in compliance with records preservations rules because he took screen shots of his communications and forwarded them to his official email or to National Security Council officials. In his letter Thursday, which was first reported by Politico, Cummings said Lowell also told him in their December meeting that Kushner’s wife, presidential adviser Ivanka Trump, was continuing to receive emails related to White House business on her private email account and did not always to forward them to her White House account.

Not professional at all....but.what exactly does he do for the american people?

Yes, but ONLY for selling top secret documents to Saudi Arabia.

This guy has balls, was taught by his ex jailed bird dad.

Doesn’t matter, above the law...

One word: hypocrite.

Bullshit article by anti Semitic Washington Post

Well, Donnie uses Twitter.........

That orange jumpsuit looks very good on him, right?

Do dead people got all this evidence against these assholes and you ain't doing shitt about it and they keep getting away with doing more more f*** this government

luuzenit LOCK HIM UP MAGA

Let's not forget BARRY SOTERO'S SEPARATE GMAIL ACCOUNT RENEGADE

But.... her emails

Buttery males?

He said two years ago that he had been using WhatsApp since the transition. Many have been trying to point this out. whereyoubeen

Lock him up?

“...But her emails...” 🙄

LockHimUp

Go to jail ...

Lock him up? Right?

ThatDudeMCFLY why couldn’t he use another app. Leave WhatsApp alone. We got barrels to send back home!

Good enough for the DOJ!

And Kushner was supposed to be the “smart” one. Trump family and associates sure love to hug the low bar.

What’s good for the goose is good for the gander

Two major differences between the HillaryClinton situation and this. 1. There is no evidence she was using email to conceal conversations with foreign leaders and more importantly 2. unlike Kushner, Hilllary was trusted by American intelligence enough to get a security clearance

jaredkushner & IvankaTrump are either braindead dumbfu¢ks or feel so entitled that common sense isn't even on their radar.

Shmuck

Yikes! Kushner

Clowns. White House is fulls of clowns.

“But, her emails...” “Lock (him) up.” Sound familiar?

LockHerUp ?

jfreewright

...but her emails.

jfreewright And HillaryClinton used an unsecured server which was hacked

jfreewright But, what about Hillary’s emails, and that time Bill Clinton spoke with Loretta Lynch on the tarmac, and and and ........? 🤦🏻‍♂️

jfreewright *crickets* from everyone who yelled about Hillary’s email server.

So? Who cares? Hillary used an unsecured orivate server in her basement & that was fine, right?

But her emails!

Wolf in sheep's clothing

Sounds like Cummings' got the goods. What else did he say?

Hey LindseyGrahamSC why don’t you worry about this instead of emails that have already been looked at by Federal Agencies. Oh, wait, you can’t you’re scared of crossing Trump.

LOCK HIM UP!

Of course he does.

RiskyLiberal butheremails

🤢🤢🤮🤮🤬🤬🤬🖕JK

Facebook security - what could go wrong?! 😂

Find the server & lock him up!

And they’re stilling moaning about Hilary’s emails.

Hello, Facebook? Yes, I'd like to complete a call!

Idiot! 🤬

Well if true then he's an idiot but the thing is Hillary apparently was allowed to use an Illegal server so they set the ball rolling that it's ok

I prefer Signal

WhatsApp app is mostly popular and in use out of the USA in countries like Russia, etc. Here we use Viber.

To all the moronic liberals who can’t see the difference between Clinton and Kushner: Clinton mishandled classified information, while Kushner HAS NOT. This is the same bogus story they tried to use on Ivanka’s gmail use. Liberals will fall for anything.

Hillary said this is okay..

I think we can safely say at this point that if anyone in Trump's family is doing something that is questionable, the absolute worst thing we can think they are doing it for is the right answer. Skip forward to subpoenaing this guy, because they're going to stall and stall.

OBSTRUCTION!

Lock him up! Lock him up! Lock him up!

That doesn’t surprise me.

I can’t even

How about we lock HIM up. They are not above the law Gowdy roasted Hillary time for Elijah to put Kushner on spit and skewer him until he squirms.

WhatsApp helped to put Bolsonaro in the presidency...be careful 🤭🤭🤭🤭

Sounds like abby Lowell is in need of a lawyer. Pretty bad when the criminals lawyer needs one.

On a private server? 🤣

....her email

To save money on phone calls.

So does MoMo

It's only illegal when Hillary does it.

but her emails!!

Where is jasoninthehouse and TGowdySC ... we need to investigate this

So? They don't have classified clearance like Hillary Clinton did....
