Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump have been named "the world's most influential Jews" on the Jerusalem Post's 2017 list.
The newspaper describes the daughter and son-in-law of President Donald Trump as "the ultimate Jewish power couple."
The pair made No. 1 on the list ahead of "Wonder Woman" actress Gal Gadot at No. 2 and Israeli President Benjamin Netanyahu at No. 3. Secretary of the Treasury Steve Mnuchin came in at No. 4.
Others on the top 50 list are Disney president Bob Iger at No. 9 and three Supreme Court justices — Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Stephen Breyer, and Elana Kagan — at No. 18.
"In their first six months as presidential advisers, Ivanka and Jared led a resistance within the West Wing against forces they considered too far right of the American political consensus — and won," according to the Jerusalem Post's profile of the pair.
"No matter the crisis that surrounds this president, Ivanka and Jared have made a choice to express their indignation and disapproval quietly, ensuring they maintain Trump's trust whilst pushing him toward their preferred path of moderation.
"It is Jared's tactic, as well, in the Middle East peace process, as he works to build trust amongst the parties and with Israeli and Palestinian leadership himself," according to the Post.
