Trump Pretends Jared and Ivanka Didn’t Quit, He Fired Them

Since leaving the White House in January 2021, Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner have made it quite clear that they want nothing to do with Donald Trump’s political operation. Post-presidency, the former presidential advisers have rarely appeared with Trump at his Mar-a-Lago resort. The couple (seemingly) leaked a story to the New York Times claiming that they’d decided to leave Washington for good just hours after Trump prematurely declared victory on Election Night 2020. Rather than attending Trump’s 2024 campaign announcement with the rest of the family, Ivanka released a statement saying, “I do not plan to be involved in politics.” And Javanka kept their distance as Trump was indicted twice this spring. They skipped all of Trump’s post-arrest festivities, buried photos of him on Instagram, and offered only passive-aggressive Father’s Day wishes.


Not so sure that's true. And about the name change, not yet anyway.

"....But, the author has clarified at the beginning of the story dedicated to Trump’s daughter that she hasn’t changed her name, “but Ivanka Trump’s image has undergone a major makeover in recent years, as she has slowly separated herself from her father’s brand.”

Interestingly found this on IT Instagram page
