Additional source records
Jared Kushner served as a senior adviser in Donald Trump’s first administration, developed close relationships with Gulf leaders, and established Affinity Partners after leaving government. Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth fund committed $2 billion to his funds. During Trump’s second term, Kushner has returned to high-level negotiations while retaining his investment business. Congressional inquiries and a newly filed lawsuit focus on the overlap between diplomatic authority, foreign-backed investments and financial disclosure.3–4, 13, 29, 53–54, 59–60
