France Summons Kushner Dad Over Gaza Drama & Antisemitism Clapback

Kushner claims French moves toward recognizing Palestine have 'emboldened extremists,' while Macron’s team fired back calling the letter 'unacceptable' interference that 'falls short of the transatlantic partnership.' Spoiler alert: This all escalates tensions amid delicate Gaza politics, with Netanyahu cheering Kushner on. Apparently, family business now includes eye-poking international diplomacy.
