Jared Kushner Claims John Kelly ‘Shoved’ Ivanka Trump in White House

Jared Kushner has claimed that his wife Ivanka Trump was “shoved” by President Donald Trump’s former White House Chief of Staff John Kelly.

Kushner makes the allegation in his new book, “Breaking History: A White House Memoir.”

The book is due to be published on August 23 and a few excerpts have been given to the media ahead of its release.

In the book, Kushner takes a few swipes at Kellyanne Conway, Steve Bannon, and others, accusing them of leaking to the media.

However, he saves his harshest criticism for Kelly.

“One day he had just marched out of a contentious meeting in the Oval Office,” Kushner writes.

“Ivanka was walking down the main hallway of the West Wing when she passed him.

“Unaware of his heated state of mind, she said, ‘Hello, chief.’

“Kelly shoved her out of the way and stormed by.

“She wasn’t hurt and didn’t make a big deal about the altercation, but in his rage, Kelly had shown his true character.

“Then the four-star general would call her staff to his office and berate and intimidate them over trivial procedural issues that his rigid system often created.

“He would frequently refer to her initiatives like paid family leave and the child tax credit as ‘Ivanka’s pet projects.’”

Kushner says that Kelly did come and offer a weak apology for the shoving incident which was accepted by Ivanka.

Kelly denies Kushner’s claim, however, telling the New York Post:

“It is inconceivable that I would ever shove a woman.

“Inconceivable,” he asserted.

“Never happen,” he said.

“Would never intentionally do something like that.

“Also, don’t remember ever apologizing to her for something I didn’t do.

“I’d remember that.”

Kushner also reveals that he had thyroid cancer while serving in the administration.
