I remember that Kushner was refused at least twice. The President is allowed to force certain security clearances, but it was definitely against the will of the security services. They knew Kushner was dirty enough to be extorted/bribed/etc. by an adversary and wouldn't approve a clearance themselves. Plus he concealed information (lied).
