(StraightShooterNews.com) – Amid a high-stakes presidential campaign, Donald Trump Jr. slammed Kellyanne Conway after she recently disclosed her new job.
Watch the video below.
After years working in the Trump administration, Conway has taken on a new role as a lobbyist for Ukrainian businessman Victor Pinchuk’s philanthropic organization.
Although he admitted to liking Conway, Trump Jr. shared that he could not understand how she could work for foreign interests directly tied to the conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
Conway recently registered a $50,000-a-month contract with the Victor Pinchuk Foundation with the Justice Department, following the guidelines of the Foreign Agents Registration Act.
This agreement started on July 25 and will end shortly after the upcoming November election.
In her new position, Conway will “engage U.S. lawmakers, and experts, and opinion makers, to explain the importance of Ukraine to the rules-based order and the protection of democratic principles.”
According to the contract details, she will also highlight the Ukrainian people’s struggle for freedom against “the Russian illegal war of aggression.”
Additionally, she aims to boost attendance at the annual Yalta European Strategy conference scheduled for September 13-14 in Kyiv, Ukraine.
Victor Pinchuk, the man behind the foundation, has diverse business interests, including investing in media holdings and manufacturing in pipes, wheels and steel.
He is known for his connections to former President Donald Trump, including a $150,000 donation to the Donald J. Trump Foundation in 2015, the year Trump appeared via video in the Yalta conference.
Previously an aide to Trump during his campaign and White House tenure, Conway recently refuted claims that she was behind negative press about Senator J.D. Vance (R-OH), Trump’s choice for vice president.
Addressing concerns about Vance’s selection, Conway mentioned to the Bulwark, “When it comes to concerned people questioning the vetting or selection of J.D. Vance, the calls are coming in, not going out.”
“I’m not calling them and saying this is bad. People are asking me. They’re not just asking me. They’re asking lots of people,” she explained.
Aligning with Trump’s “America First” foreign policy philosophy, Vance stated at the Republican National Convention, “We will make sure our allies share in the burden of securing world peace.”
“No more free rides for nations that betray the generosity of the American taxpayer,” he declared.
NEW: Donald Trump Jr. calls out Kellyanne Conway for reportedly registering as a lobbyist for a Ukrainian billionaire.
“You know, if you're working for Ukraine, I can't imagine you actually working for peace.”
