I doubt he has even seen a close-up the pictures on that van! For all we know, there may be a package with his name on it in a mail facility somewhere. They are apparently still finding packages - this time from places further away from NY and D.C.

I wonder what happened to make him act so oddly and say such stupid things.

I have to admit, I used to have a big old crush on him. I think he's very handsome, but I'm starting to question his sanity.

… to be "fair and balanced" - always looking for the right-wing argument, even when the facts support one side. I wonder if he might not be more comfortable on another news network?

Anyone that haven't seen that by now have their heads up their asses. I am really shocked that President Obama made him famous.

What is wrong with him? I don't remember seeing him in the cross hairs of a leftist rifle.

27. Kushner Fan Boy

I did not like the way he conducted the Jared Kushner interview. He came across as too much of a fan boy. He seemed like a teenage girl interviewimg Tom Brady, or some other famous man. Van Jones was acting as if Kushner was some type of genius. Kushner is similar to Trump and that is what really got him where he is currently. He was born to a rich father, used the rich father's money to make himself even more money, and then was handed a serious of jobs he was not qualified for due to his closeness to a powerful person. There is not real need to fangirl over Jared Kushner. Considering his Kushner interview it is no surprise that he is also pushing bothsiderism.

A million "both sides do it" can sure add up to a lot of ad revenue from both sides!
