Paul Manafort’s Daughter Changes Last Name: ‘I Am a Passionate Liberal’

The 36-year-old filmmaker and daughter of President Donald Trump‘s former campaign chairman, Paul Manafort, filed court papers in Manhattan last Friday to make it official, The New York Post reported. She’ll now go by the name Jesssica Anne Bond, according to the outlet.

For Bond, it’s a way to “to separate myself and my work from a public perception that has nothing to do with the person that I am,” she told the Post.

But the name isn’t new — she used it in July after wrapping up her new film Rosy, which was released under Jess Bond.

Explaining the decision to The Los Angeles Times that month, Bond said it was about standing by her views and being her own person.

“I am a passionate liberal and a registered Democrat and this has been difficult for me. Although I am ‘the daughter of,’ I am very much my own person and hopefully people can realize that,” she said.

She was married for a bit to Jeffrey Yohai, who may (or may not) be cooperating with Mr. Muller

Here’s the “Rosy” page from IMDB

Yeah, meanwhile, Ivanka needs more than a name change to separate herself from certain “public perceptions” of her, oh most definitely!!

Ivanka will keep her name as long as she thinks there’s money in it. She sure doesn’t go by Ivanka Kushner much, does she?

since I remembered that one of his daughters was married to a crook who worked with Manafort.

Seems to me that she is trying to distance herself by name. Good luck with that. Bernie Madoff's sons' fates come to mind.

ivanka isn't a "passionate liberal" who wants to distance herself from her criminal father. She's part and parcel of the crime famly entrerprise.

She's "Complicit" "She knows who she is and what she's doing"

In a series of texts reviewed by Business Insider that appear to have been sent by Andrea to her sister, Jessica, in March 2015, Andrea said their father had "no moral or legal compass."

"Don't fool yourself," Andrea wrote to her sister, according to the texts. "That money we have is blood money."

"You know he has killed people in Ukraine? Knowingly," she continued, according to the reviewed texts. "As a tactic to outrage the world and get focus on Ukraine. Remember when there were all those deaths taking place. A while back. About a year ago. Revolts and what not. Do you know whose strategy that was to cause that, to send those people out and get them slaughtered."

It will probably happen for Barron when he is placed in child services as his mom and dad go to prison for the rest of their lives.
