Jared Kushner's newspaper, the New York Observer, ran an op-ed last week that called for an FBI crackdown on the anti-Trump protests that have swept the nation, Alternet reports.
Kushner, who is Donald trump's son-in-law and married to Ivanka, bought the Observer in 2006.
Just last week, the paper was described as the "propaganda arm of the Trump administration" by Mediaite contributor Justin Bargona.
The Observor op-ed, written by Austin Bay - a former U.S. Army Reserve colonel and current adjunct professor at the University of Texas in Austin - calls on FBI Director james Comey to investigate "the violence and political thuggery that continue to mar the presidential election's aftermath."
This includes a crackdown on protests and a thorough investigation into whether protest efforts "have ties to organizations demanding vote recounts."
