Here are a bunch of photos of Jared Kushner just staring blankly into the middle distance

Jared, what do you know?

Jared Kushner has a lot going on. His father-in-law, President Donald J. Trump, has a bunch of quick tasks he'd like Jared, a White House senior advisor, to get right on.

These include:

That Kush, a 36-year-old real estate developer, has no experience in any of these areas is of no real importance to his father-in-law.

As Trump said on the campaign trail: "Jared is a great young man, went to Harvard, very smart, doing a fantastic job in business. He’s in the real estate business and has done an amazing job."

Still, the weight of these tasks, coupled with feigning respect for Steve Bannon when cameras are around, must weigh heavily on Kush's shoulders.

Perhaps that'd explain why he spends so much time blankly staring into the middle distance.

Jared, what do you know that we don't?
