A Democratic congresswoman from Arizona has taken direct aim at Jared Kushner, President Donald Trump‘s son-in-law, accusing him of putting his own financial interests ahead of the United States while serving as a key figure in some of the most sensitive foreign policy negotiations of the current administration.
Rep. Yassamin Ansari, who represents Arizona’s 3rd Congressional District, delivered a pointed floor speech this week calling out what she described as open corruption at the highest levels of the Trump White House. Ansari is the first Iranian-American Democrat ever elected to Congress, which gives her remarks on the ongoing U.S. conflict with Iran a particular weight.
