Who gives a shit what these old farts think, and why do they think that only they can determine "what is strict enough".They are living in La La land.

No, they are members of an unholy cult and their connection to Judaism is zero. Israeli racist Rabbis can P off and take a long walk on a short pier.

Jews deciding which Jews are Jewish enough should rather get a useful job that will pay their bills and offer something meaningful to the world.
Jews who exist to say they out-Jew other Jews actually aren't good Jews

What's more, I consider her MORE Jewish than the gaggle of 'orthodox' rabbis that have recently been convicted of criminal activity. It's time the 'religious ruling authorities' when home and left the people to practice their Judaism as they see fit.

The Kushners can come observe Shabbat at my home anytime.

the rabbinate wants all converts to be haredim.
the rabbinate wants to discourage those converts
who are not haredim.
ivanka was converted by a well known kosher orthodox
rabbi. he is worthy of his title, and it was a mitzvah to
convert this wonderful woman.

... she's too tall for me (5'-11") and she's already married. Jared is a lucky guy and together they've built a great Jewish family. Those "rabbis" who put her Jewish status into question are a disgrace to the tradition of welcoming the convert. We need to return to the traditional practice where rabbis respected the conversions of other rabbis.

Basically the Office of the Chief Rabbinate of the State of Israel is saying:
You have a padrino (godfather) or a macher (fixer) you pay the fee we will provide the accommodation along with making you up a nice "Kosher Jew" certificate.
This is exactly what former Chief Rabbi Yona Meltzer did, he asked for a bribe in order to provide an accommodation and a Kosher Certificate. The bribe was paid and the accommodation and Kosher Certification were granted. And now the former Chief Rabbi is going to jail!
So what does that say about what is going on here?
If Mr. Kushner were a Cohen and he wanted to marry a convert, how much would that cost by the office of the Chief Rabbinate of the State of Israel?

Religion is in the person's heart and in the mind. The rabbis can say whatever they want but it remains for the person to choose. People owe the rabbis no loyalty, owe them absolutely nothing.

Who cares, unless our foreign policy is based on Donald's being Jewish?

Do a country destiny depends on a conversion?

Not on politics, agreements, common interests, convergence of ideas and ideals, on preserving values ... but on some "family feeling"?

Barnea should worry more about the violence of the so called
Liberal Left just today in Berlin when Germany and Europe are remembering
the Holocaust the German Jew Josef Jofee publisher of Die Zeit
called for the murder of President Trump !! The Left is and always
has been the true enemy of the Jewish people they stir the pot and
the rest of the Jews suffer for the sins of these "Jews by Accident of Birth "
As far as fossils are concerned it is Barnea who is the fossil as the
leftist secular Jew is disappearing from the Jewish World just
as other fossils died out he is just one more Dinosaur

Then she's more Jewish than half the population of Israel and more Jewish than four fifths of the Jews of the USA. Don't these rabbis have anything more pressing to concern themselves with?
