Jarvanka using Camp David for their family + friends -- 10th anniversary!!

On whose dime?

On whose authority do WH staffers get to hold a private shindig at the facility?

Who is watching out for National Security interests while all these grifters and low-lifes roam the property?

Is MBS on the guest list?

Kushner will leave the festivities on Sunday and depart for Israel on a government plane with Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin; new Middle East peace envoy Avi Berkowitz, who is taking over for Jason Greenblatt when he exits his role on November 1; and Special Representative for Iran Brian Hook. They are expected to meet with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and, separately, Benny Gantz. Mnuchin and Kushner will have separate schedules and meetings, according to a person familiar with the trip. Kushner is planning to take the political temperature post-election in Israel, which failed to form a government and further delayed the release of the peace plan that Kushner has said for months is ready.

They will then travel together to Saudi Arabia to attend the annual investment forum known as “Davos in the Desert” for a few hours. Last year, in the wake of the kingdom’s role in the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi, no one from the administration attended the event. The intelligence community has since concluded that Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman was involved in the murder, though he continues to deny any personal knowledge. Kushner has repeatedly stressed the importance of the U.S. relationship with the Saudis and has privately met with MBS over the last year. There is no formal meeting set up between the two as of yet, according to the person familiar with the trip, but Kushner may speak on a panel and they could have informal discussions. After a few hours in Riyadh, Kushner will fly home commercially to be back in Washington in time for his wife’s 38th birthday.

this is worse.

No particular reason, just that anything Rump does is worse.

I have no idea who paid for the wedding, but you know damn well taxpayers will be paying for this shindig.

is the one type of event you could appropriately hold at a Trump property, right? Did Daddy refuse to give you the family discount?
