    Here's the latest on Jared Kushner:

    Jared Kushner has been making headlines recently, particularly with his business dealings. On January 15, 2025, it was reported that Kushner is set to double his stake in a leading Israeli financial firm, a move approved by Israeli regulators just days before his father-in-law, Donald Trump, is expected to return to the White House[5].

    Kushner has also been under scrutiny for his private equity firm, Affinity Partners, which received a $2 billion investment from the Saudi Public Investment Fund controlled by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. Kushner defended his business dealings at a summit in Miami, stating he followed all laws and ethics rules[4].

    This investment has raised concerns about potential conflicts of interest and payback for Kushner's support of Saudi Arabia during his time in the White House. The House Oversight Committee has opened an investigation into whether Kushner traded on his government position to secure the deal[2].

    In other news, Kushner's wife, Ivanka Trump, recently testified before the House committee investigating the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. Kushner himself testified before the committee last year, appearing voluntarily in a virtual meeting[1].

    Kushner's business activities have been a subject of interest, particularly his real estate investments. His company, Kushner Companies, has been actively rebuilding its portfolio, including purchasing 5,500 units in August[3].

    Kushner's relationship with Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman has been a point of contention, especially given the prince's implication in the 2018 killing of Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi. Kushner has been criticized for his defense of the prince and his business dealings with the Saudi government[4].

    Overall, Jared Kushner's recent activities have been marked by significant business moves and continued scrutiny over his dealings with foreign governments, particularly Saudi Arabia. His increasing stake in an Israeli financial firm and his defense of his business practices have made headlines, highlighting the ongoing concerns about his ethics and potential conflicts of interest.
