Apparently Jared Kushner has a voice, but he has about as much business addressing tech CEOs as my dog Shep.

Jared Kushner SPEAKS. After hearing his Kermit-like voice I understand why he's been so quiet. Pictured: #Kushner and wife #Ivanka pic.twitter.com/IDsxItnAR9

Stephen Bridges added he expected Jared Kushner’s voice to sound like Mickey Mouse, and his guess “wasn’t too far off.” For Monica Zeff, Kushner’s voice sounded like a 13-year-old going through puberty, while Kevia Seccia added, Kushner’s voice “sounds how Donald Trump looks.”
Private sector creativity unleashed
Nanax3 asked why Kushner’s voice is a big deal when there are more important matters to discuss, such as health care.
While netizens tweeted a torrent of mocking comments about the son-in-law’s vocal quality, Kushner, who used to head his family's real estate company, said in his address that the Trump administration will unleash the private sector’s creativity to provide citizen services in a way that has never happened before.
He also touched on their plan for the overhaul by the Departments of Defense and Veterans Affairs of the veteran medical records’ system, Time reported.
The publication noted that given his vast portfolio, it is strange that Kushner is seldom heard.
Restarting the Israel-Palestinian peace talk
As a senior adviser, Kushner’s tasks include crafting the criminal justice reform policy and brokering the Middle East peace. He and Jason Greenblatt, a top national security aide of Trump, are arriving this week in the region to restart the Israeli-Palestinian peace talk, Reuters reported.
This would be a follow-up to the discussions Trump held in May with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas. Kushner and Greenblatt will meet with Israeli and Palestinian leaders about in Jerusalem and Ramallah about their priorities and potential next steps
The two are working with State Secretary Rex Tillerson and White House National Security Adviser on the Middle East issue. Given Kushner’s address on Monday, netizens who believe the president’s son-in-law has a lot of explanation to give about the Russia interference, are interested to hear how he will tackle those issues also.
Sorry, Jared Kushner, but the only time I'm interested in hearing your voice is when you're confessing to the FBI.
