Y’all, He Was Just Applying for an ATM Card

I know everybody is all Honey,-have-you-heard! about Jared Kushner meeting with officials representing a Russian bank while it was under sanctions.

He was simply applying for an ATM card.  You know, in case the sanctions were lifted, because he had heard from pillow talk that may happen under a Trump administration.

U.S. officials said that after meeting with Russian Kislyak at Trump Tower last December, a meeting also attended by Flynn, Kushner met later in December with Sergei Gorkov, chairman of Vnesheconombank.

White House spokeswoman Hope Hicks confirmed the meetings, saying nothing of consequence was discussed.

Gorkov was appointed head of VEB in early 2016 by Russian President Vladimir Putin. He graduated from the Federal Security Service, or FSB, Russia’s internal security agency. He was awarded the Medal of the Order of Merit for Services to the Fatherland, according to the bank’s website.

“Nothing of consequence.”  Oh sure, we believe that. Just some guys sitting around talking about the Super Bowl.

(As an aside, there is a White House spokeswoman named Hope Hicks?  The Hicks part caught my eye and my funny bone this morning.  So, I looked her up.  She’s a lovely young woman who is one of Ivanka’s models.  I am completely serious.)
