Jared Kushner made his first comments on the FBI search of former President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate over the weekend, saying the raid was a product of Trump's enemies"over pursuing" him.
Kushner, the 45th president's son-in-law who served as a senior White House adviser, offered his thoughts on the shocking raid of the Palm Beach, Fla., resort while appearing on Fox News' Life, Liberty & Levin to promote his new book, Breaking History. Host and conservative commentator Mark Levin asked Kushner to discuss the unprecedented incident, which has catapulted his father-in-law back into the headlines as he prepares to mount a 2024 presidential bid.
"His fiercest critics really accuse him of breaking norms," he continued."But what we're seeing here and what we've seen constantly over time, is that they do that exact thing. They break all the norms in order to try to get Trump.
The raid has unified many Republicans around the belief that there is a double standard in the FBI with regard to how it treats political figures of different parties. Attorney General Merrick Garland has faced specific criticism over his and the Justice Department's handling of the search in recent weeks, including from Trump foes.
