> Affinity Partners, the private equity firm led by Jared Kushner, is part of Paramount's hostile takeover bid for Warner Bros Discovery, according to a regulatory filing

> Affinity Partners was not mentioned in Paramount's press release on Monday morning about its $108 billion bid, nor were participating sovereign wealth funds from Saudi Arabia, Abu Dhabi and Qatar.

> [...]

> WBD could be the second major takeover Kushner has been involved in this year, having previously played a key role in the take-private agreement for gaming giant Electronic Arts.

Oh!

electronic arts takeover https://www.google.com/search?q=electronic+arts+takeover& :

> Electronic Arts (EA) is being acquired in a $55 billion leveraged buyout by a consortium of investors, primarily Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund (PIF), along with Silver Lake and Jared Kushner's Affinity Partners. The deal, announced in September 2025, is structured to make the company private. While the consortium initially kept the ownership breakdown private, a recent filing indicates the PIF will hold a dominant 93.4% stake, with Silver Lake and Affinity Partners holding smaller percentages.

Why have you sold EA/Maxis/NFL Madden/PGA Tour (US) to immune for 9/11 SA?

Did they give you billions of dollars for free?

WBD (US) should not be sold to SA or to Paramount (Ellison, Kushner, SA,)

"Letter to DOJ on Kushner - FARA (Wyden - Raskin) final.pdf" (October 2024) https://oversightdemocrats.house.gov/sites/evo-subsites/demo... :

> Recent public reports and a Senate investigation have uncovered significant evidence that Mr. Kushner acted as an unregistered foreign agent of [SA]

Kushner - who was never credentialed by State Department, an ambassador, or registered as a foreign agent in the US or in any other country - has now, in 2025, helped sell Electronic Arts to SA and is trying to help sell Warner Brothers Discovery to SA, a foreign territory which does not support Freedom of Speech.

Trump wanted Ellison to purchase TikTok (from the owners in China that weren't offering to sell it) so that US data would remain in the US.

By comparison, why did Trump/Kushner help sell EA (NFL Madden, NBA Live, PGA Tour,) to foreign interests, and why is Trump/Kushner trying to help sell WBD to foreign interests?
