Jared Kushner, husband to Ivanka Trump, is allegedly soliciting $5 billion in funding for his private equity firm while serving as a diplomatic advisor to his father-in-law, President Donald Trump.
Kushner has been participating in peace negotiations worldwide, with Trump appointing Kushner to the unofficial position of the administrations special peace envoy in Feb. 2026.
Now, as one of the governments negotiators in the Middle East, Kushner is working to raise money for his private equity firm, Affinity Partners, from governments across the Middle East, according to The New York Times.
The outlet reportedly spoke to five people with knowledge of the business proceedings, all of whom confirmed that Kushner has been actively meeting with investors in his quest to raise at least $5 billion for his firm.

Gotta get in a few last licks, as they know Rapin Grampy is going down.
Pure speculation on my part, but do you think the Saudis will ever see that money back?

(41,329 posts)For a relatively young-ish man, he has stepped on so many toes along the way to massive wealth. The money in his bank account now is nothing he has earned at a steady job. I doubt whether he even knows how to do that. Does he even understand what the word "corruption" means? I doubt it.
