Jared Kushner reportedly held a private meeting with Hakeem Jeffries just weeks before midterms that could hand Democrats control of the House, while Speaker Mike Johnson apparently learned about it from Peter Doocy. The stated conversation covered housing, immigration, affordability, and bipartisan cooperation, but the timing raises obvious questions as Trump’s family faces the possibility of subpoenas, investigations, and a Democratic speaker next year. With conservative Judge Michael Luttig separately warning about potential fights over seating newly elected House members, this quiet meeting deserves far more scrutiny than a vague statement about finding common ground. Ring of Fire's Josh G. explains.
