BREAKING: US Senators Just put Trump’s Son-in-Law Jared Kushner under Investigation for getting Billions From Middle East While Shaping U.S. Foreign Policy

Democratic lawmakers Ron Wyden and Robert Garcia have launched a formal inquiry into Jared Kushner’s fundraising activities for his private equity firm, Affinity Partners, citing concerns over billions of dollars received from Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Qatar while he serves as a Middle East envoy in President Donald Trump’s administration.

The development was highlighted in a post by @politvidchannel on X, accompanied by images of the US Senate chamber and a portrait of Kushner, as well as a link to a March 2026 New York Times report detailing his fundraising efforts.

According to the thread, Kushner has solicited more than $5 billion from Gulf states for Affinity Partners, a firm that reportedly manages nearly $5 billion in assets, most of it from foreign investors.

The New York Times article cited in the post outlines how the majority of the capital backing the firm comes from sovereign wealth funds and state-linked entities in the Middle East.

Wyden and Garcia have sent official letters to the White House and to Affinity Partners seeking clarification on what safeguards are in place to separate Kushner’s diplomatic responsibilities from his private business interests.

The lawmakers expressed concern that Kushner’s dual roles could create potential conflicts of interest, particularly as he engages in negotiations and policy discussions involving the same countries that are major investors in his firm.

In their letter, the lawmakers requested detailed information about ethics agreements, recusal policies, and any firewalls designed to prevent overlap between government decision-making and private financial dealings.

They also asked whether Kushner has disclosed all relevant financial relationships and whether the administration has conducted any internal review of the arrangement.

“Americans deserve transparency and assurance that foreign funds are not influencing US foreign policy decisions,” the lawmakers wrote, according to excerpts shared in the report.

They emphasized the need for clear boundaries between public service and private gain, particularly when foreign governments are involved.

Kushner, who previously served as a senior adviser during Trump’s first term, returned to a diplomatic role in the administration’s second term as a special envoy focused on Middle East affairs. His supporters argue that his longstanding relationships in the region make him well-suited for the position.

They maintain that his business dealings are separate from his official duties and comply with legal requirements.

Critics, however, argue that the scale of foreign investment into Affinity Partners raises ethical questions, especially given Kushner’s influence in shaping US policy in the Gulf. Some analysts note that even the perception of a conflict could undermine public trust in diplomatic processes….See More
