4. ;-{) Affinity Partner.....

"Affinity Partners is an American investment firm based in Miami, Florida. It was formed in 2021 by Jared Kushner, Donald Trump's son-in-law, who also served as a senior advisor during Trump's first presidency. The firm has a focus on investing in American and Israeli companies. Its sources of funding are overwhelmingly from the Saudi Arabian government.

Kushner's firm received commitments of more than $3 billion by the end of 2021 to invest in American and Israeli companies that are expanding in India, Africa, the Middle East and other parts of Asia. The largest investor by some margin is the Saudi government's sovereign wealth fund, the Public Investment Fund, which has allocated $2 billion to the firm. Officials who headed the Public Investment Fund objected to investing in Kushner's firm, but Saudi ruler Mohammed bin Salman overruled those officials.[3]

The firm is fully owned by Jared Kushner and has a staff of approximately 20 people.[2][4] By 2024, the firm had returned no profits to its investors."....

15. Yes, he is effectively an employee of the Saudi royal family, and he's there to see them right

and keep Trump's favourite daughter in the riches she feels entitled to.

[Omnipresent]

5. I don't know.

Why is it crickets that no one in the media ask why Barron Trump isn’t joining one of our military services to serve his country?

[Doodley]

6. He's always there to make money out of other people's suffering. What other possible reason could there be?

[Autumn]

7. Ivanka's boy toy is the bag man.

[leftstreet]

25. +1 and his dad Charles is Bibi's bestie n/t

8. "No one elected HIM."

WH staff and advisors aren’t required to be elected or confirmed by the Senate.

In theory the people ‘elect’ WH staff and advisors when they vote for president.

The problem is an incompetent, corrupt, and criminal president such as Trump will appoint staff and advisors who are just as incompetent and corrupt.

[Emile]

9. Follow the money.

[LR3]

10. Because grift

end of story

[Irish_Dem]

11. He is the one who goes personally to get cash, land, other assets.

It is all for the Trump Crime family personally.

This cannot be done by anyone else but him.

[dalton99a]

13. +1

[doc03]

12. Why is Malania addressing the UN.

[jls4561]

28. Because the only way they could get the "numbers" up for her flopumentary is to give each security counsel

member $50.00 and a popcorn bucket to sit there while they screen the film in the background.

Trump is saying that this counts towards the US UN dues he hasn’t paid.

14. Jared Kushner Wasn't Just Involved in Trump's Push to Overturn 2020. He Helped Start It

Jared Kushner Wasn’t Just Involved in Trump’s Push to Overturn 2020. He Helped Start It
“Jared helped create what then morphed into the Rudy clown show,” one source tells Rolling Stone

Jared Kushner knew his father-in-law and boss Donald Trump had lost to Joe Biden. But that didn’t stop Kushner from trying to help his wife’s dad cling to power.

According to four people familiar with the matter, in the week following Election Day in early November of that year, Kushner took charge in overseeing the development of plans to keep Trump in office — Kushner just wasn’t publicly ostentatious about it in the way Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani and others were. During that first week, Kushner repeatedly met with Trump and other high-ranking aides to the then-president to discuss and map out possible strategies for multi-pronged legal battles and a scorched-earth messaging war against the victorious Biden campaign, the knowledgeable sources tell Rolling Stone.

Despite all the strong evidence to the contrary, Kushner told Trump that there could still be a path for the then-president in a number of critical states, including Arizona, that had already been called for Biden. In those early days of the scheme to overturn the election, two of the sources say, Kushner also personally encouraged Trump to fight on and ignore people who were saying it was over, and to stick to the burgeoning plans and court challenges spearheaded by the 2020 campaign attorneys and senior staff. Kushner was, of course, in the room with these fellow Trump lieutenants when the plans were first being crafted. (Axios reported this at the time as the trusted son-in-law urging Trump to explore and pursue “legal remedies” to the election results.)

Earlier this week, The New York Times published an article titled, “How Jared Kushner Washed His Hands of Donald Trump Before Jan. 6” — renewing questions of just how complicit Kushner was in his father-in-law’s months-long attempted coup d’état.

“Jared was directly involved,” one of these sources, a former senior Trump aide who worked on the effort to nullify the election outcome, said. “There was a [brief] window…when it seemed like he was positioning himself to be the Jim Baker of this fight … It didn’t last long. He backed away from it, but he was there and got his hands dirty like everyone else did.” (Baker, a towering figure in the Republican Party, helmed the legal team for George W. Bush during the chaotic Florida recount that ultimately handed Bush the presidency.)

19. Because he is bibs godson. That is it.

[Martin Eden]

20. GRIFT

Nearly everything with Trump is transactional. Saidis and other wealthy Arab states have funneled hundreds of millions if not $billions to the Trump family and their financial schemes.

These Shiite states hate Iran, so that could be a reason for the war Trump started. It was part of the deal.

[raccoon]

21. Wasn't there some problem with him getting a security clearance? But Dotard smoothed it over.

[twodogsbarking]

22. I blame Tom Brady

[PCB66]

23. Trump is obsessed with doing Israel's bidding

Kushner is just his front man to make sure Israel gets whatever it's little heart desires.

[Initech]

24. And why is Sean Hannity mingling with Benjamin Netanyahu at Mar-A-Lago?

[HighFired49]

26. He had to be there

He's Dump's business manager, investment manager, and overall grift manager for the Middle East. Who else could advise him and manage all of the Trump interests there?????!!!
