Kushner ‘Investment’ Fund Looks Like A Foreign Govt. Slush Fund
While Republicans have been obsessing over Hunter Biden’s completely-unconnected-to-his-father finances, they’ve given a complete pass to Ivanka Trump hubby and former White House adviser to his father-in-law Jared Kushner.
Yep, that’s the same Jared Kushner who, despite being a complete novice in the field, somehow pocketed billions from the Saudis and more from other foreign governments for his investment fund. The New York Times has the latest on what he’s been doing with all that foreign dough. The short answer? Making money for himself and not returning profits to investors.
From The Times:
The private equity firm run by Jared Kushner, the son-in-law of former President Donald J. Trump, has been paid at least $112 million in fees since 2021 by Saudi Arabia and other foreign investors, even though as of July it had not yet returned any profits to the governments largely bankrolling the firm.
Those are among the findings of a Senate Finance Committee inquiry into the operations of Affinity Partners, the Miami-based firm Mr. Kushner set up.
