Daily News | Jared Kushner’s uncle and aunt have maxed out in presidential donations — to Chris Christie
Clout this week was perusing a list of political donors who have already given the maximum allowed under federal law to presidential candidates for next year’s primaries. One couple from Livingston, N.J. — Murray and Lee Kushner — stood out.
They are the uncle and aunt of Jared Kushner, Trump’s son-in-law and former senior adviser. The couple maxed out — $3,300 each — to former N.J. Gov. Chris Christie, as they also did in 2015 when Christie first ran for president. Christie, when he was a U.S. attorney, successfully prosecuted Jared’s dad, Charles Kushner, for a scandalous scheme that grew from a fight about spending in the family’s real estate business.
Charles Kushner pleaded guilty in 2004 to tax fraud charges and to retaliating against a witness in the case — his sister. He admitted to hiring a sex worker to seduce his brother-in-law and sending a video tape of the encounter to his sister.
