Jared Kushner, after his tenure as a senior adviser in the Trump White House, has established Affinity Partners, an investment firm that has drawn significant scrutiny due to its heavy reliance on foreign investments. According to reports, 99% of the funding for Kushner's $3 billion fund comes from foreign sources, including substantial amounts from Gulf states such as Saudi Arabia ($2 billion), the UAE ($200M), and Qatar ($200M), as well as from Terry Gou, founder of Foxconn. These investments are notable not only for their size but also for the potential conflicts of interest they represent, especially as Donald Trump seeks re-election and aims to regain control over American foreign policy. The firm, which controls around $3 billion, has invested over $1.2 billion in various firms abroad, including deals in Israel, Dubai, Brazil, Germany, and the US, further intensifying the scrutiny. Critics argue that Kushner's actions may represent a conflict of interest, as he had previously worked closely with these foreign investors during his time in the White House, and there are concerns about the ethical implications of these financial relationships.

It’s not a ‘potential’ conflict—Kushner changed US policy to protect oil monarchs, then took billions from those same autocrats. That’s a conflict at the very least, and Comer’s protecting Kushner by blocking subpoenas despite admitting that Kushner’s profiteering is unethical. https://t.co/QJQYCnHJ9Q https://t.co/VoFiRGmgWV
