Kushner Returns for 'Peace Talks' After $2 Billion Saudi Gift
According to Al-Monitor, Jared Kushner, without any official White House role beyond 'son-in-law,' is back in the spotlight, tasked with weighty 'peace talks' in Gaza and Ukraine. This follows his significant post-White House 'deal-making,' notably securing a $2 billion investment from Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund for his private equity firm, Affinity Partners, just months after leaving
government. He'll also 'invest' in a Paramount bid for Warner Bros., potentially owning CNN. How convenient. One might wonder about the timing and ethical optics of someone freshly enriched by foreign governments, particularly those deeply entangled in regional conflicts, suddenly becoming a 'peace broker.' It appears the mainstream narrative neatly sidesteps the question of whether 'negotiating
peace' is easier when your personal bank account has been super-sized by kingdom cash from key players. Is this diplomacy, or simply monetizing past influence under a new, palatable label?
