Jared Kushner BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Jared Kushner has managed to stay on the periphery of major headlines in recent days, yet his broader orbit remains in the spotlight, mainly due to the controversy swirling around his father, Charles Kushner, who is the current U.S. ambassador to France. Major outlets like the Los Angeles Times, ABC News, and the Associated Press report that France’s foreign ministry formally summoned Charles Kushner on August 25, expressing outrage over a public letter he wrote to President Emmanuel Macron, accusing the French government of not doing enough to combat antisemitism. The diplomatic fracas took on additional significance given Charles’s familial tie to Jared since diplomatic dustups at this level inevitably draw scrutiny to the entire Kushner brand. French authorities labeled the ambassador’s allegations unacceptable, rejected all charges of inaction, and characterized the episode as a formal diplomatic protest unprecedented in recent Franco-American relations.
While Jared himself was not directly responsible for the letter, the fact that global coverage repeatedly connects him as the former White House adviser and Trump son-in-law, suggests the episode carries a long echo for his biographical profile—especially as U.S.-European ties continue to be tested on issues from Middle East policy to transatlantic security. At a moment when the Trump family’s business dealings and international influence are being reassessed yet again, this episode slots into a broader pattern scrutinizing the post-presidency activities of prominent Trump allies.
On the personal front, Jared and Ivanka Trump were recently spotted traveling to Israel for vacation, as reported by various entertainment news sources. The trip came on the heels of both appearing by video during the House January 6 hearings, underscoring how the couple remains relevant not only through business but also the ongoing legal and political drama still swirling around the final days of the Trump administration.
Meanwhile, Jared’s business activities are back under the microscope. A recent segment on Democracy Now referenced reporting by the New Yorker detailing how foreign sovereign wealth funds—especially from Saudi Arabia, UAE, and Qatar—have poured billions into his private equity firm since he left the White House. The $2 billion investment from Saudi Arabia's public investment fund remains a top talking point in both political and financial circles, highlighting Jared’s penchant for leveraging his government connections for personal enrichment, a theme frequently debated among policy experts.
With Jared avoiding direct comment on his father’s diplomatic predicament, there’s no major verified public statement from him regarding the Paris controversy. No new major business launches or speaking events have surfaced in the last several days. Social media chatter about Jared is picking up, primarily in the context of the ambassador scandal and ongoing speculation about his potential return to the political fray alongside Donald Trump as the 2028 campaign season lurks on the horizon, though nothing verified connects him to fresh campaign activity just yet. At the moment, the biggest headline for Jared Kushner is his proximity to controversy rather than direct instigation.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
