Trump Nominates Charles Kushner as Ambassador to France

News summary

President-elect Donald Trump has nominated Charles Kushner, the father of his son-in-law Jared Kushner, to be the U.S. ambassador to France. Charles Kushner is known as the founder of Kushner Companies and was pardoned by Trump in December 2020 after serving time for tax evasion and illegal campaign donations. His criminal history includes a scheme to intimidate a cooperating witness, involving hiring a prostitute and recording the encounter to send to his brother-in-law’s wife. Trump praised Kushner as a 'tremendous business leader' and expressed confidence in strengthening ties with France. The nomination requires Senate confirmation, although such nominations typically receive deference from senators. This nomination is part of Trump's broader effort to fill key Cabinet positions ahead of his administration.
