.@FBI does not grant or adjudicate security clearances. Decision to give Jared Kushner a clearance was made solely by the White House.— Ted Lieu (@tedlieu) May 23, 2018
Kushner omitted his Trump Tower meeting not once, but TWICE on his SF-86s. If he wasn't the son-in-law of @POTUS, he would not have a clearance https://t.co/6FNcMZJAQn
Many of us know former colleagues who lost their security clearance because they fell behind on student loans--or ran into other seemingly minor issues. It's hard to square this decision with that reality unless there was a lower bar for Kushner. https://t.co/LeNJezqtbz— Ned Price (@nedprice) May 23, 2018
