<THREAD> We're learning more about the bailout of Kushner's family business. @CREWcrew points to the involvement of a Qatari-backed company. 1/6 https://twitter.com/CREWcrew/status/1026800253880729600

Any ties between the bailout and geopolitics is purely circumstantial at this point, but it's worth noting a Qatari sheikh had previously backed out of providing a lifeline to Kushner's family business. We wrote about it here: 2/6 @traciemac_Bmore

Kushner is close to Saudi Crown Prince Mohamed who led a blockade against Qatar, with the UAE. Kushner & @realDonaldTrump backed the blockade when it began. 3/6 https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/872062159789985792

Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Russia appear to have coordinated the Qatari blockade. 4/6 https://narativ.org/2017/06/07/an-unholy-alliance/

The same three countries (Saudi, UAE and Russia) also played a role in Trump's election, under a global agreement negotiated by mercenary Erik Prince. 5/6 @traciemac_Bmore https://narativ.org/2017/11/23/billionaire-boys-club/4/

Will @realDonaldTrump and Kushner shift their stance on Qatar now that 666 Fifth Avenue is out of trouble? It's hard to distinguish private business from geopolitics in our new political reality. It's the very dynamic which propels 'strongman' politics. /END
