Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump organized a private meeting in New York with Qatar's prime minister and a bipartisan group of mostly Jewish businessmen and billionaires. The meeting aimed to discuss the Gulf country's relations with Hamas. Kushner has been accused of leveraging his White House access to secure investments from Gulf autocrats, including $2B from the Saudis and $200MM from the Qataris for his private investment firm. Critics have raised concerns about potential conflicts of interest and misuse of government influence for personal gain.
The Saudis gave Jared $2B to manage with massive payouts to him. And he was in government 5 minutes before that. Dealing with Middle East policy. And Comer is talking about a $4,000 truck payment in 2018? For someone who was never in government. From someone who wasn’t then.

Jared Kushner does favors for Gulf autocrats while in the White House, then collects $2B from the Saudis and $200MM from the Qataris for his private investment firm when he leaves. Uses that access to show off for American billionaires and make more money. https://t.co/5qYkkw2h6L https://t.co/aSBLdnKd76
