Publisher's summary

This program includes a foreword read by the author.

The first explosive audiobook about Javanka and their infamous rise to power.

Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump are the self-styled prince and princess of America. Their swift, gilded rise to extraordinary power in Donald Trump’s White House is unprecedented, unconstitutional, and dangerous. In Kushner, Inc., investigative journalist Vicky Ward digs beneath the myth the couple has created that depicts themselves as the voices of reason in an otherwise crazy presidency and reveals that Jared and Ivanka are not just the president’s chief enablers, they are, like him, disdainful of rules, of laws, and of ethics. They are entitled inheritors of the worst kind; their combination of ignorance, arrogance, and an insatiable lust for power has caused havoc all over the world and threatens the democracy of the United States.

Ward follows their trajectory from New Jersey and New York City to the White House, where the couple’s many forays into policy making and national security have mocked long-standing US policy and protocol. They have pursued a personal agenda that is making them very rich while their actions have mostly gone unchecked. In Kushner, Inc., Ward holds Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump accountable: She unveils the couple’s secret self-serving transactional motivations and how those have propelled them into the highest levels of the US government where no one, the president included, has been able to stop them.

A sickening look inside our corrupt government!

It is very disappointing to find out we have no clue what is really going on inside our government! We are sold out nearly every day! Books like this one by Vicky Ward are A clarion call to us to save ourselves before it is too late Instead of drifting off asleep thinking of what to buy shopping tomorrow!! Mother Mary please watch over us we are at a evil and dangerous place!!

extraordinary story of strange business family

narrator excellent. story mesmerizing. highly recommend. stories I hadn't heard. a family that should be banned forever from public life

Monsters

The entitled of our country absolutely have no clue. The sooner this grifter family is gone from the White House, the sooner we will be able to get to work rebuilding.

Audio is terrible

The reading sounds like it’s spliced together or dubbed or something. This particularly noticeable around names of people mentioned in the book. Really ruined the experience

Mob Ethics and Moral Vacancy

Perhaps the strangest story of the Trump era. Remember how Italian and Irish mobsters appeared so pious and devoted to their families? Here is the Jewish version. While the Kushners appear devout to the public eye, off-camera they are cheating investors, tenants, and the public, Once their father is no longer in the White House, they may well face multiple indictments for mail fraud and money laundering. Ivanka Trump emerges in these pages as a prettier, verbally polished replica of her father, complete with an empty space where her moral center should be. Let us hope the Kushner/Trump alliance is not a dynasty. It would be as if Eva Peron had married Al Capone.

very interesting!

very interesting book. this is a new author for me. I will read more of her books. these people are not what they seem from what she says

Not much new information. Terrible narration

I've been an audible listener for 15 years and this is the first time I've been moved to comment. The only new information I gleaned was some of the deep background on the Kushner family history. Otherwise, this was pretty much in the public domain.
However, the narrator was terrible. Perhaps chosen for her British accent (not sure why), but after that wore off on me, I couldn't get past how poor the pronunciation was. Who was the editor?

I'll ask for a refund.

Relevant

Interesting data dump. Obviously no story arc possible. Effective reader: american accent used to highlight quotes.

so much corruption so little time

these two are vile. entitled, corrupt, manipulative. selfish. we deserve better and I hope they get their comeuppance

As fascinating as it is frightening

A must read on the ever growing Trump & Family books. A clear and factual accounting of some of the vilest and venal of American plutocrats and their narccasisim, voracious greed and twisted self-aggrandizing mendacity. Ms.Ward should be awarded a Pulitzer.
