Jared Kushner's family development company is suing Jersey City, N.J., alleging that the city and its redevelopment agency broke a multimillion-dollar construction contract out of "political animus towards President Trump."

The lawsuit, filed in federal court in New Jersey on Wednesday, alleges that the city and the Jersey City Redevelopment Agency sought to delay the construction of the company's One Journal Square project, because of Kushner's ties to Trump.

Kushner serves as a senior adviser to the president and is married to his elder daughter, Ivanka, who is also a senior adviser in the White House.

"Defendants ultimately determined to place politics over principle, their obligations under the Redevelopment Agreement, and the law, by engaging in egregious actions to interfere with JSP’s ability to develop the Project, following the election of President Trump, Jared Kushner’s father-in-law, as president of the United States and following President Trump’s appointment of Jared Kushner as a senior advisor," the lawsuit says.

5. I accuse Kushner of anti-Palestinian animus. His peace efforts are going to go nowhere.

But perhaps that is the plan, to make the Netanyahu feel good.

8. Poor CONservative snowflakes.

First Sarah "Red Hen" Sanders, and now the Kushners. The world is just so unfair! And now, in true Trump form, SUE EVERYBODY!

I remember a time when CONservatives were against law suits. How times change.
