Trump son-in-law Kushner loses top security clearance

Donald Trump's son-in-law and senior aide Jared Kushner has lost his top-level security clearance, sources familiar with the matter said Tuesday, a decision with potentially profound implications for the US administration. Two sources, who could not speak on the record because the status of security clearances is classified, confirmed US media reports that the 37-year-old White House aide will no longer be able to access America's most closely guarded secrets. The White House -- up to and including the president himself -- refused to comment on the record, but officials insisted that the decision would not impact Kushner's role.
