1. Senior Advisor to the President
2. Director of the Office of American Innovation within the White House Office (position created specially for him). The office exists only to make recommendations the President.
When he meddles with the CDC or the US foreign policy, he is not bearing any legal responsibility. He is grey eminence operating in unofficial capacity. He can't legally make anyone to do anything, but everyone knows that he is just phone call away from the real power.
- musicale 6y agoAmazingly I actually remember the Logan Act from US History, and even thought of it before I heard it mentioned in the news.
- Nokinside 6y agoLogan Act applies to Flynn when he was working as transition team member for Trump when Obama was president. It applies to Jared when he was transition team member and talked to Saudis and Israel. President-elect is not the president. Logan act does not apply to Kushner when he is acting on behalf of the president as he is doing today. Kushner has authorization to do what he does. He even has senior position in the WH. What he does not have is executive power or position on his own.
