Kushner breaks pledge, seeks $5 billion more from foreign governments

> After Donald Trump won the presidency in 2024, Jared Kushner, his son-in-law, dismissed concerns that his private equity firm would be a vehicle to buy foreign influence. In December 2024, Kushner said that he “preemptively” raised $1.5 billion earlier that year. The $1.5 billion came from Qatar’s sovereign wealth fund and Lunate, an investment fund linked to the UAE government. The influx of cash, Kushner said, would allow his firm “to avoid any conflicts” and ensure “we don’t have to raise capital for the next four years.” His claim that he would not raise additional money during Trump’s presidency to avoid conflicts turned out to be a lie. He has not disclosed how much money his company has earned from the genocide-for-hire and the US' assigned invasion and bombing of Iran & Lebanon at the behest of Tel Aviv and its #abrahamAccord war alliance, of which UAE & al-Saud are members.
