Jared Kushner Hacked Phone Reveals Secret Negotiations, Millions in Transactions

Dutch Spies Hacked Jared Kushner's Phone and Found $700 Million Moving Through a Dubai Account

An exclusive excerpt from Matthew Cole's book Princes and Thieves describes how the Dutch government breached Jared Kushner's phone in 2020 and watched him access a Dubai bank account holding hundreds of millions of dollars, money that had arrived from a bank in Azerbaijan. Kushner, the president's son-in-law and former senior adviser, appeared to move large sums onward to individuals including a warlord, a mercenary, and a one-time hit man, tying the accounts to Israel, the UAE, and Saudi Arabia.

The story sounded preposterous, I told my source. And yet.

    You have to think the current administration is completely and totally owned by foreign interests at this point.

    The question is, what do you do as the new administration coming in? Presumably you assume every system and every person is compromised all the way down, like a compromised server - clean wipe and re-install.

    One would assume that, like any good hacker, the current set would be heavily focused on ensuring they can survive a reboot / wipe. The question is, what would they be doing to achieve that?

    Why bother with hacks when it's an open secret that the US gov is compromised?

    Everything lately makes me want to re-watch Peter Finch's monologue from Network.

    I am pretty darn jaded these days, but I find myself staggered.

    edit after reply:

    > What was odd, the source said, was that the money in the account—hundreds of millions of dollars—had come from a bank in Azerbaijan.

    Ahh, now the arrest of the former chief of Germany's BND, related to what seemed like a random country "Azerbaijan" is making a bit more sense?

    Do people actually think the next elections won't be rigged? It's going to be a rude awakening.

    I also feel people are missing the forest for the trees in that discussion in that Jared Kushner is a private citizen and the son in law of the president who somehow is negotiating with foreign heads of states despite having no mandate from the American people to do so. Forget a hacked phone, why is a nepo baby running around negotiating on behalf of a country without holding any office
