The 38-year-old mother of three has positioned herself as an Oval Office confidante while spearheading initiatives that broadly back women’s empowerment. Her husband has become a top adviser on U.S. Mideast policy

Once the owner of an eponymous fashion line, Ivanka Trump has wielded her proximity to the president to promote policies affecting women and deliver speeches around the world about women’s economic empowerment. She meets with world leaders as a key White House official. Some of her efforts even have some bipartisan support in Washington, standing in sharp contrast to the level of controversy and political division surrounding her father’s presidency.

Trump made no mention, however, of legislative obstacles in the U.S. around paid family leave, which she and the U.S president support. Currently, just a few U.S. states offer paid leave. She said, though, more work needed to be done. She noted that across the region, women on average still have only half the legal rights of men.

The UAE and Saudi Arabia have worked to cultivate close ties with the Trump administration and were early supporters of the Women’s Empowerment Fund, a World Bank initiative to help female entrepreneurs that Ivanka Trump strongly backs. During the first trip abroad of her father’s presidency to Saudi Arabia, the two Gulf countries pledged $100 million to the fund.

Joke of the century

Waste of space.

Oh do you now. Do you also laud your father the way he uses women.

She hasn’t lived there has she?

Let her live there for a year.

She needs her head examined. What is she doing here anyway?

Waste of breathable air

Uh...

Justin Trudeau bows in front of Iranian leader. Next.

Of course we don’t see any thing wrong here AlexpiersonAMP. Sucking up to the despots.

After all the Saudis are her friends

Does anyone know who her father is?

She’s manipulative. This one. She’s saying the right things. This is the front for all weapons deals. It’s surprising nobody in all of America is questioning her presence or capacity for a trip there. The people of which state does she represent? These are the 9/11 players.

Yahooooooooooooooooooo time to act like Trump grab her P****

New Brunswick deputy premier Robert Gauvin quits governing Tories over health-care reformsGauvin told constituents in his riding of Shippagan-Lameque-Miscou he will sit as an Independent, dealing a blow to the minority government of Premier Blaine Higgs Healthcare is a privilege of economy. Never forget that. I'm sure he is doing what many who he represents want him to so, as a rep, he's doing his job. But that's not leadership. The nonsense about his conscience is a little embarrassing when he knows these changes are right and believed so up until the pushback. A non-leader. nbpoli
