Trump says he did not know Kushner used WhatsApp for White House business

WASHINGTON - U.S. President Donald Trump on Friday said he knew nothing about son-in-law and White House adviser Jared Kushner's use of the WhatsApp encrypted messaging tool, a day after a top U.S. Democratic congressman questioned the unofficial communications.

In a letter to the White House, seen by Reuters, Cummings said Kushner's lawyer had told lawmakers about his WhatsApp use for official duties, a move that would violate current law prohibiting White House officials from using non-official electronic messaging accounts. "I know nothing about it. I've never heard that, I've never heard about it," the Republican president said.

Lowell, in a separate letter to Cummings, called the Democratic committee chairman's characterisation of earlier comments "not completely accurate."
