Just put this on the stack with peace in the Middle East, liaison to the European Union and ambassador-without-portfolio to Asia.

Ambassadors have to have a fairly high security clearance.

Jared and his wife should get the hell out of D.C. He's gong to have several trials to prepare for.

You don't understand the unique greatness that is President Donald J. Trump and his ingenious genius for making America great again! See, all this time our country has gotten bogged down in security-clearance this, hope-nobody-blackmails-us that, and it's really hurt our standing in the world community of other, lesser nations. Didja see how eager to do business with the U.S. China and Israel were when all they had to do was check in with Jared to get whatever they wanted?
