Ivanka's lawyer, a Democrat, defends herself[Jamie Gorelick]
Politico ^ | 24 March 2017 | Annie Karni

Jamie Gorelick, a veteran of President Bill Clinton's Justice Department and a Hillary Clinton supporter, explains why she's working for Trump's daughter now.

Attorney Jamie Gorelick had just finished vetting potential Cabinet secretaries for Hillary Clinton — and raising money for the failed 2016 Democratic nominee — when Jared Kushner called her last year, seeking legal counsel.

Gorelick, who served as deputy attorney general under President Bill Clinton and a former member of the 9/11 Commission, was recommended to Kushner by former News Corp. executive Joel Klein, who now serves as chief strategy officer at Oscar, the health insurance company co-founded by Kushner’s younger brother, Josh. Klein told Jared Kushner he needed a real lawyer to sort through nepotism and conflict-of-interest concerns that could bar him from working in the White House for his father-in-law, President Donald Trump.

Isn’t she the beotch that put up a communications ‘wall’ between the FBI & CIA possibly resulting in 9/11?

WTF would we even WANT her on our team? Yikes!

A very poisonous snake in the grass, and she will bite.

Ever since this info came out, I’ve been suspicious that this Gorelick is a leaker, because “it” has proved “it” has no scruples at all and is perfectly content to operate unethically.

Jamie “The Wall” was knee deep in the 911 Comission Whitewash.

Maybe Ivanka is not as smart as she is given credit for.

This is insane hiring Jamie “The Wall”

If Ivanka trusts Gorelick, the idiot who set up the infamous “wall of separation” between our intelligence agencies during Clinton’s administration which enabled the 9/11 terrorists to succeed, she is more gullible than we thought. It is very alarming to have a Clinton insider in the Trump inner circle.

Gorelick had her hands on restricting intelligence between Justice Department and FBI before 9/11.

Then they put her on 9/11 commission.

Then they put her on Freddie M board and she made a lot of money even though it collapsed.

Was on a list to be Obama’s first attorney general.

If you are blind you might conclude she only has very poor judgment.

Gorelick should be nowhere near the Trump administration.

“Jamie “The Wall” was knee deep in the 911 Comission Whitewash.”

That’s exactly what I remember about her on the 911 Commission.

As I recall, there is a picture of her laughing with a former Republican senator on the 9/11 commission. Made my blood boil.

Agreed.

Gullible is a distinct possibility. However, if Princess I turns out to be cut from the same cloth as JG, that is an outrage, and she should NOT have the President’s ear, much less his heart and mind.

Either way it does not bode well for us.
