I can't seem to find tonight's #ABC #BreakingNews about financial revelations of pre-presidency #DonaldTrump regarding #UnitedArabEmirates online just yet, but further scrutiny of the #UAE is warranted with this item AND the item of news I heard via a #Dropsite reporter (Sharif Abdel Kouddous) and this #NewGaza investment/development that we all know Jared Kushner & Co. has his fingers into, deeply.

Both Dropsite and 927 Magazine are essential reading for keeping abreast of Gaza news.

Not sure if this is it or not, but this dropped a little while ago from the WSJ (link below) that CNBC reported:

Sheikh Tahnoon bin Zayed Al Nahyan of the United Arab Emirates purchased a secret 49% stake in the Trump family's World Liberty Financial, The Wall Street Journal reported late Saturday.

Tahnoon, known as the "Spy Sheikh," is a UAE royal and government official who serves as the country's national security adviser and manages its largest wealth fund.

World Liberty counts President Donald Trump and his special envoy Steve Witkoff as co-founders emeritus, and is run by members of the Trump and Witkoff families.

Months after Tahnoon purchased the $500 million stake, the U.S. agreed to give the UAE access to 500,000 of America's most advanced AI chips per year.

Yes, that's the one! ABC cited the WSJ and I'm just now hearing the same citation via MSNow. Thanks!

Edited to add links pertinent to my OP via Dropsite and other reporters, particularly Jonathan Wittal who reports how Iraq War's Petraeus is in on the profiteering off of the #newGaza project, and these links were aggregated by Tangents Radio, where I heard the interview with reporter Sharif Abdel Kouddous last night.

Petraeus' org, the KKR, is being mentioned in other financial news so be aware of that, especially in the crypto arena.
The following link is to a story about leaked "Board of Peace" documents regarding the exploitation of #NewGaza

I've given the link to Tangents Radio several times earlier; when you click on "playlists", the most recent one (yesterday's) comes up and you can find more links on this subject at the bottom of yesterday's entry.
