Jared Kushner, President Donald Trump's 36-year-old son-in-law, is a senior adviser in the Trump administration. Though Kushner, who is married to Ivanka Trump, did not have an official role during Trump's campaign, he was nevertheless seen as a " de facto campaign manager ," and he later served as a member of Trump's transition team.
On June 15, the Washington Post reported that special counsel Robert Mueller, who was appointed to oversee the FBI investigation into possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia, was looking into Kushner's business dealings.
Until February 2018, Kushner had access to top-secret intelligence, including the president's daily brief, but in the wake of the scandal in which former staff secretary Rob Porter resigned amid allegations of domestic abuse, it was revealed that dozens of White House aides, including Kushner, did not have permanent clearance because they hadn't yet passed their FBI background checks. Trump said he would let chief of staff John Kelly decide whether Kushner could keep his full clearance, but on February 2018, Politico reported that a memo – not signed by Kelly – informed all White House aides working on the highest-level interim clearances that their clearances were being downgraded.

In July 2017, the New York Times reported that Rob Goldstone, a publicist and former British tabloid reporter , reached out to Donald Trump Jr. in June 2016 to try to set up a meeting with a “Russian government attorney” who had, he said, information that “would incriminate Hillary and her dealings with Russia and would be very useful to your father.” He also said, “This is obviously very high level and sensitive information but is part of Russia and its government’s support for Mr. Trump.” Trump Jr. agreed to the meeting and asked to include Kushner as well as then-campaign manager Paul Manafort. In a statement to the Times, he said: “I was asked to have a meeting by an acquaintance I knew from the 2013 Miss Universe pageant with an individual who I was told might have information helpful to the campaign. I was not told her name prior to the meeting. I asked Jared and Paul to attend, but told them nothing of the substance.” Trump Jr. posted his email chain with Goldstone on Twitter. The Russian lawyer, Natalia Veselnitskaya, said in a statement that “nothing at all about the presidential campaign” was discussed at the meeting and she “never acted on behalf of the Russian government.” Kushner's lawyer confirmed that he "briefly attended" the meeting.
