Land of the free-for-all as Hunter, Kushner, Trump drama envelops political world
Land of the free-for-all
After five years schlepping after Hunter Biden, eyes now blink on Jared Kushner.
The nearsighted House Oversight Committee chairman said inhaling a $2 billion Saudi investment six months after leaving the White House “crossed the line of ethics.”
More. Albany’s Dem Super Majority wants courts to stop evictions. Wants NYC to house homeless. Wants to care for — not incarcerate — the mentally ill. Wants to rebuild Rikers, wants to house asylum seekers, wants to add a partridge in a pear tree, etc. — but wants to provide no funds to do it.
More: Trump will possess grand jury minutes in the Jan. 6 case. Names, testimony, grocery lists of “friends” who testified against him. Plus those expected to. Reaching them in any way he’s obstructing justice. Contempt of court.
They’ve already subpoenaed his valet. And friends. Next up — who? Donald’s chiropodist?
All this while Hunter is smoking and coking and Joe is banking and tanking.
A story sent me by legal eagles: A while back there was a problem with a Rochester, NY, construction magnate. This guy then called a pal and asked him to “just give one of the witnesses my regards.” Everything blew up after that.
The contractor guy got nailed. Then his pal was bounced a year later.
Wait. More. Biden’s from Delaware. Appointed special counsel to sniff the Biden investigation aroma?
Former prosecutor David Weiss. Who’s from where? Delaware. The whole state — which is only one political party — is smaller than a toilet. And everywhere is a Biden footprint and behind print. And Someone Who Knows.
Beware hardware, malware, silverware, menswear, software, tableware, the aroma from Delaware makes Secaucus sniff like Chanel.
Going ‘Big’ for third wed
“MY Big Fat Greek Wedding” was a long back big fat hit. Now comes a third edition. Nia Vardalos directs. Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson again produce. Not Greek to them because it’s the original cast and all filmed in Greece.
Wilson: “We had no idea ‘My Big Fat Greek Wedding’ would go anywhere but we thought it’s funny and people found it and agreed. It’s now full circle. Story revolves around reunion.”
Cast is Vardalos, John Corbett, Joey Fatone, Lainie Kazan, Andrea Martin who says: “My wig’s my same wig from 20 years ago. Who knows how they kept it!”
“My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3” opens Sept. 8. Bring souvlaki. And Kleenex.
Moving images
WHY nobody’s in theaters? Look at this new film. “Landscape With Invisible Hand.” Tiffany Haddish. It’s about alien ET kids looking for love. It’s like we care. They take over. They put people out of work. And it smells like the Progressives. The thing lands here Friday.
Steak claimed
IF your lady friend needs a hit man just to beat the eggs, hark: Empire Steak House restaurants are three brothers. Empire Steak House & Grill on East 50th, Empire Steak House on West 54th, and next to the Eugene O’Neill Theater the empire’s newie, Empire Steak House on West 49th. Just letting you know.
BESIDES movies, how about what’s with education. I know a kid, 9 years old. He goes to a very progressive school. He now dates his teachers.
Only in New York, kids, only in New York.
