Jared Kushner BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Jared Kushner has re-emerged on the political stage in the past few days with several notable high-level appearances and developments that mark a significant shift from his recent low profile. The most attention-grabbing headline: Kushner joined former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair and President Donald Trump at the White House last Wednesday for a lengthy closed-door meeting focused on a post-war plan for Gaza, as reported by CNN and Axios. Sources indicate the talks centered on the future governance and reconstruction of Gaza after the end of Israel’s military campaign, with both the US and Israel insistent that Hamas will be excluded from any role. The White House has so far remained tight-lipped about the specific details of the proposed plan, but Steve Witkoff, Trump’s foreign envoy, previewed on Fox News that the discussions were comprehensive and reflected “President Trump’s humanitarian motives,” hinting at broad ambitions potentially extending beyond standard diplomatic efforts.

Kushner’s role in these talks is strictly unofficial; he does not currently hold any formal White House title. Yet, according to CNN, he has been quietly advising the administration since Trump’s return to office in January, especially on Middle East issues. Kushner’s deep personal connections with a range of regional leaders, especially Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, seem key to his continuing influence. The meeting was widely covered, with Caliber.Az describing it as a “large” gathering and noting that Blair, too, continues to play an active role in international policy, extending his own legacy from Number 10 Downing Street.

On the business front, there have been no recent reports of major new Kushner Companies deals in the past few days. Previous headlines focused on Kushner stepping away from day-to-day operations to prevent conflicts of interest upon joining Trump’s White House team, a move confirmed by the New York Times but not updated in the latest cycle. However, speculation persists regarding family financial interests: According to the Times of India, Kushner is believed to hold a stake in World Liberty Financial, which recently brokered a deal to help expand crypto development in Pakistan—an association causing controversy and raising questions about US foreign policy priorities under Trump, though direct Kushner involvement has not been confirmed by official sources.

Social media mention and tabloid attention have been less policy-focused and more personal. Ok Magazine recently called out the lavish post-White House lifestyle led by Kushner and Ivanka Trump, a reminder that the couple remain fodder for gossip columns and Instagram commentators. No significant public statements from Kushner himself or major social media posts have surfaced in recent days, and his communications remain behind closed doors. As always, speculation about the long-term significance of his informal advisory role and business entanglements continues, but the most consequential biographical development of late is Kushner’s influential presence at the highest levels of US Middle East policy discussions.

Cardiac Cowboys

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.
