Kim Kardashian Expected to Visit White House Today
The Kardashians continue to take on Washington! Like Kourtney Kardashian did in April, Kim Kardashian is expected to take on Washington D.C. today to discuss prison reform with white house officials, including senior adviser Jared Kushner, according to CNN and Vanity Fair.
It's unclear if Kim will meet with Donald Trump, like her husband, Kanye West, did, but she is prepared to ask officials to pardon Alice Marie Johnson, who is serving a life sentence for a single drug offense. So far, Alice has served 20 years in prison, but Kim hopes she can get her out.
While an important cause, people on Twitter are not happy about Kim going to the White House and possibly meeting with the president.

BREAKING: Kim Kardashian is headed to the White House today to discuss Prison reform with Jared Kushner.
No, I'm not making this up.
Call me crazy, but perhaps ex-prisoners and prison guards should be discussing this, and not a Reality TV star...- Brian Krassenstein (@krassenstein) May 30, 2018
Kim Kardashian is not in any way knowledgeable about prison reform, and inviting her to the White House shows how this regime doesn't take this issue seriously at all.
This is just about a photo-op so they can excuse doing nothing. She's enabling white supremacy.- Sasha Fox (@third_sasha) May 30, 2018

In case it wasn't clear before, America is officially a reality show.- Simran Jeet Singh (@SikhProf) May 30, 2018
Some even drew comparisons to how Beyoncé and Jay-Z were close to Barack Obama and Michelle Obama.
Honestly, I feel like Kanye and Kim Kardashian are riding Donald Trumps wave so hard only because The Obama’s loved Beyonce and Jay so much and they were at EVERY event. Kim and Ye want to be Jay and Bey so bad! It’s obvious

This isn't the first time Kim has spoken out about prison reform. Last year, Kim enlisted her legal team to help ease the sentencing of 30-year-old Cyntoia Brown. Brown was charged for murder as an adult when she was 16-years-old after she killed the man who allegedly used her as a sex slave.
