Jared Kushner BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Jared Kushner has vaulted back into the spotlight these past few days, his influence renewed not just in political back channels but also the inner circles of Trumpworld and global finance. Most notably, on Monday in Miami, Kushner joined White House envoy Steve Witkoff for a high-level strategy session with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s senior adviser, Ron Dermer, Axios reports. The meeting was to thrash out the latest US proposal to end the war in Gaza—a plan that hinges on not only the release of all remaining hostages but also the withdrawal of Israeli forces, all subject to new Gaza governance being able to enforce security. Israel appears open to the proposal’s terms, but Hamas is bristling, calling the withdrawal clause a political trap. This places Kushner, who is officially back in the postwar planning game alongside former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair, at the heart of efforts to broker a deal that could fundamentally reshape the region. Donald Trump himself reportedly signed off on Kushner’s initial blueprint for postwar Gaza at a private meeting during the US Open tennis final, asking Kushner to flesh out a comprehensive roadmap.
There’s a family footnote that’s setting social channels abuzz: Arabella Kushner, Jared and Ivanka’s eldest, made her first major solo public appearance, confidently seated beside her grandfather and father at the men’s singles final of the US Open. Cameras lingered on her in a stylish mint-green dress, and her presence—with her mother notably absent—sparked online whispers about whether she might be the next Trump to enter public life or whether it was just a one-off tennis outing. Observers saw her mingling among heavyweights like Attorney General Pam Bondi and White House Special Envoy Steve Witkoff, making social media wonder if the 14-year-old could eventually play an active role in the family’s political dynasty.
On the business front, Kushner’s financial clout continues to mushroom, most visibly through his stake in the Trump family’s cryptocurrency endeavor, World Liberty Financial and its token WLFI, which made headlines after the family’s combined stake soared to more than $5 billion as soon as trading launched earlier this month, according to India Today and MarketMinute. The cryptocurrency’s swift ascent has sparked an ethical firestorm and reignited scrutiny about Kushner’s unique overlap of business and political interests, especially as family members also prepare to expand officially licensed Trump meme coins and fintech projects.
And the money doesn’t stop with crypto. Reports from the Quincy Institute highlight that Kushner’s private equity fund, Affinity Partners, was boosted by a surge of Gulf sovereign wealth in 2024, with Qatar and a UAE-based fund pouring more than $1.5 billion into his venture—a fact not lost on DC-watchers connecting Middle East policy with financial opportunity. With Kushner now back in the Trump policymaking orbit, his evolving business activities and geopolitical dealings suggest he’s positioned not just as a power broker but as a defining figure in both his father-in-law’s world and the global spotlight.
