Did Ivanka and Jared distance themselves from Trump because of Saudi payment for secrets?

Ivanka and Jared were said to have began distancing themselves from Trump in February-to-March period of 2020

Did they realize how implicated they had become in selling secrets to the Saudis and get scared?

Just a question, of course, but if they did find themselves a conspirators (Mohammed bin Salman choosing Jared to invest two billion dollars despite his lack of qualification). I'm guessing they might crack.

I'll bet the FBI is already talking to them.

This could explode!

100 Brunhildes couldn't sing loud enough.



Seems that some scapegoats in SA were offed in a farcical response to the Khashoggi "investigation" by MBS.

Want to bet that they were agents outed by the leaked documents?

‘Oh what a tangled web we weave/When first we practice to deceive,’ is a very ‘Shakespearean’ phrase, however, it is not from Shakespeare. It comes from an early nineteenth century Scottish author, Sir Walter Scott, best selling writer of novels, plays, and poems.

In times marked by mass irrationality, or as Mister Bannon says: "Flood the area with $hit," it's nice to see some rationality and "due process" replace random acts of greed, malice and spite.

Some people just cannot tell the truth. It's pathological.

Seth Meyers Points Out Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner Are Always on Vacation When Trump 'Goes Haywire'

BY TUFAYEL AHMED ON 8/18/17 AT 6:43 AM EDT

In fact, Meyers pointed out that the couple have been taking a lot of vacations this year—which happen to coincide with fresh disarray in the White House.

"How often do these two go on vacation?" Meyers asked. "Every time something goes haywire in the Trump administration, it seems like they're nowhere to be found."

"When Don Jr.'s emails with the Russian lawyer surfaced in July, they were at a conference in Sun Valley, Idaho," Meyers said.

"When Trump was nearing the 100-day milestone with no accomplishments to showcase, they were in Whistler, Canada, for a Passover ski trip."

My typing fingers don't always follow my mind either and from my phone, I might was well try to write things in the "Original Klingon".

to pass away before taking action against TFG. The billions certainly help, but I can't help but wonder if she's been planning on either abandoning Daddy or turning him in for the way he treated her mother.
