sure they are.....they apologize for getting caught.
A company owned by Jared Kushner's family is apologizing for mentioning the White House adviser at an investment conference in China.
Kushner Companies said Monday that the name drop at the event in Beijing on Saturday was not intended to be an "attempt to lure investors" to one of its projects in New Jersey.
Nicole Kushner Meyer, the sister of White House adviser and President Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner, mentioned her brother's new role in the administration during a pitch for her family's property. The New Jersey building makes use of an EB-5 visa program to draw in international investors, including the Chinese.
"In 2008, my brother Jared Kushner joined the family company as CEO, and recently moved to Washington to join the administration," she said at the conference.

"He has the President's ear, you know. It's too bad you didn't go to Jared."

Let's label it correctly.
