    I did not know it was a typo. I was trying to make sense of it. Sorry. With numbers it is harder to determine if a typo. Your post says 18 presidents. I could only find 12. If you do not mind my asking who are the other 6?

No. There have been 45 administrations. 44 men have been President (Cleveland served nonconductive terms, he was the 22nd and 24th President)If you mean worldwide...I do not care. That is not the topic. Topic is US policy about legality of hiring family.
    In 1978, Congress passed HR 11003: “A bill to clarify the authority for employment of personnel in the White House Office and the Executive Residence,” which was signed into law by President Jimmy Carter.
    The law states, in part, that “the President is authorized to appoint and fix the pay of employees in the White House Office without regard to any other provision of law regulating the employment or compensation of persons in the Government service. Employees so appointed shall perform such official duties as the President may prescribe.”
    So Carter passed a law clarifying it was allowed and in 1993 a Fed judge ruled it as legal. And 12 of our 45 Presidents have hired family. (26 2/3%)   less

So yes, by Kushner refusing pay that law does not apply. In a1993 ruling, Judge Laurence Silberman of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit  ruled not to apply to the White House or Executive Office of the President.  (Also forgot to list Bill Clinton in my list above) (So more than 20% of US Presidents appointed family)
    Association of American Physicians and Surgeons, Inc. v. Clinton, Silberman wrote,
    “ Although defines agency as 'an executive agency,' we doubt that Congress intended to include the White House or the Executive Office of the President. So, for example, a President would be barred from appointing his brother as Attorney General, but perhaps not as a White House special assistant.  less

Reforming of taxes is about keeping jobs here in the US and so are the tariffs.  It is about time someone stands up for the American worker.  Crazy that countries charge us a tariff or are subsided by their gov but we do not return the favor. And then these people have the nerve to call it "Free Trade". Trump found that "magic wand" for jobs Obama was talking about.
    Blue-collar jobs are growing at their fastest rate in more than 30 years, helping fuel a hiring boom in many small towns and rural areas that are strong supporters of President Trump ahead of November's midterm elections.
    Jobs in goods-producing industries — mining, construction and manufacturing — grew 3.3 percent in the year preceding July, the best rate since 1984, according to a Washington Post analysis.https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2018/09/09/under-trump-jobs-boom-has-finally-reac...    less

The gov decides the value of their money (instead of the market) making their money cheaper. They also put taxes on our products to them. They do not allow all of our products in either. If they know our product is better they will come up with a reason to not allow it to be sold (unsafe etc). They also steal roughly $600B of intellectual property from us every year. Commonly by not allowing access to their market unless a company reveals how they make their product(s). Then they give that information to one of their companies. They ignore copyrights and patents. Every President has known they do this but been afraid to challenge China over it.  less

Because of this you can reach a maximum North and maximum South, meaning if you are at the South pole, no matter where you turn you can only go North, not more South, thus making it one of the poles. On the other hand, if you head East you can keep going East (or West) for as long as you want and you'll just circle the Earth without ever reaching a point where you can't go East. Thus, East and West have no poles.Reference https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/why-is-there-no-west-pole-and-east-pole.825430/#js-post-5182882  less

Recalling the “caging of kids” at the U.S.-Mexico border and the “droning of countries around the world” on Obama’s watch, she argues that the Democratic president operated within the same fundamentally broken framework as his Republican successor.
    “We can’t be only upset with Trump. … His policies are bad, but many of the people who came before him also had really bad policies. They just were more polished than he was,” Omar says. “And that’s not what we should be looking for anymore. We don’t want anybody to get away with murder because they are polished. We want to recognize the actual policies that are behind the pretty face and the smile.”  less

Employees so appointed shall perform such official duties as the President may prescribe.”

The gov decides the value of their money (instead of the market) making their money cheaper. They also put taxes on our products to them. They do not allow all of our products in either. If they know our product is better they will come up with a reason to not allow it to be sold (unsafe etc). They also steal roughly $600B of intellectual property from us every year. Commonly by not allowing access to their market unless a company reveals how they make their product(s). Then they give that information to one of their companies. They ignore copyrights and patents. Every President has known they do this but been afraid to challenge China over it.  less

Because of this you can reach a maximum North and maximum South, meaning if you are at the South pole, no matter where you turn you can only go North, not more South, thus making it one of the poles. On the other hand, if you head East you can keep going East (or West) for as long as you want and you'll just circle the Earth without ever reaching a point where you can't go East. Thus, East and West have no poles.Reference https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/why-is-there-no-west-pole-and-east-pole.825430/#js-post-5182882  less

    I just wanted to say "thank you" for all you do here to help make this a place that runs smoothly. Helping us all to find a bit of balance between the completely ridiculous and inappropriate, and that which inspires and uplifts. You and I don't cross paths very often but I am continually inspired by your bold stance on matters of personal faith. I share a deep belief with you that Jesus is the foundation of all things good and only those things will remain. All else falls away. Now if I could just learn how to behave myself. LOL! You are appreciated, my2cents, and you are prayed for. Hope you have a wonderful day filled with the light of truth and peace. Today and everyday.
