BALDWIN: Just into CNN, the president's son-in-law, Jared Kushner, is punching back after former Vice President Joe Biden criticized his role at the White House. In an interview with "60 Minutes," Biden said it was not right for Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner to serve as White House officials. I Let's get more details. CNN White House Correspondent, Jeremy Diamond, is with me. It's rare to hear from Jared Kushner himself speaking publicly. So what did he say?</s>JEREMY DIAMOND, CNN WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT: You're right, Brooke. It is rare. During a visit to Israel meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his political rival, Benny Gantz, Kushner was asked in his interview with Israel's Channel 13 about the comments made by former Vice President Joe Biden, suggesting it was improper for Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump to have top White House positions and offices in the president's administration. Here is how Kushner responded. He said, "He's entitled to his opinion," speaking of Vice President Joe Biden. "But a lot of the work that the president's had me doing over the last three years has actually been cleaning up the messes that Vice President Biden left behind." Jared Kushner also went on to say the president is essentially entitled to pick his own team. But these are some rare, biting comments that we're seeing here from Kushner. Kushner also weighed in on impeachment, Brooke. He's did slam impeachment as silly games that the Democrats are playing and insisted the Trump administration will stay focused on the work its doing.
