๐บ๐ธThe ex-CEO of a $25B Alaska gas export project says Novatek, a Kremlin-tied Russian gas company, was secretly bankrolling it and directing operations.
๐ท๐บPutin brought the project up with Witkoff and Kushner during Ukraine talks. People familiar with the talks told the FT the idea was Novatek helps build in Alaska and Russia gets sanctions relief on its Siberian project. Meanwhile Trump waived most of the Russia sanctions law he signed a month ago, two days before it kicked in.
๐ Texts reviewed by the Times show Novatek execs discussing sending up to $15M to keep the deal moving, and the FT saw WhatsApp messages where a Russian Novatek board member tried to speed up the transfer.
There is an effort by the Russian energy giant to seek ownership of American gas production. In a statement to The Times, Russian Novatek said on Friday that it, in fact, was moving to acquire โminority shareholderโ status in the Polar LNG project.

Kushner appeared to have transferred significant amounts of money from the Dubai account to other individuals, including a warlord, a mercenary and a one-time hit man.
๐ณ๐ฑ๐ท๐บRussian military intelligence hacked Kushnerโs iPhone in 2017. Dutch intelligence then found screenshots of his phone on a Russian military intelligence server and reverse-engineered the hack. By early 2018 they were watching his screen in real time.
As they monitored Kushnerโs phone, they discovered he used it to log in to a UAE bank account. By the time the Dutch spies had visibility into the phone, the account had received hundreds of millions of dollars from a bank in Azerbaijan. Their initial assessment was that the bank account was affiliated with the government there.
๐ฆ๐ช๐ฆ๐ฟWhat they saw is Kushner accessing a UAE-linked account at First Abu Dhabi Bank that received around $750M, with money coming from a bank in Azerbaijan. It alleges he moved money to a warlord, a mercenary and a one-time hitman.
๐ฎ๐ฑA separate account in Israel with roughly $1B meant for his personal benefit.

๐บ๐ธTrump made $1.4B in crypto and was facing a tax bill over $500M. Then he donated development rights on a golf course he still owns, sued the IRS, and his own DOJ settled.
Facing one of the most significant tax bills of his life projected at more than $500 million, President Donald Trump set up a โcharitable deductionโ on a golf course he still owns that could let him write off roughly $825 million in income.
Trumpโs return to the White House brought $1.4 billion in cryptocurrency earnings in 2025, plus more than $200 million from real estate. His projected tax bill snowballed to over $500 million.
To shrink that bill, the Trump Organization turned to a tool called a conservation easement. The tax code lets landowners claim a charitable deduction for giving up the right to develop their land when that protects natural habitat, even if they keep the property.

Regarding the commentary you can hear in the video, the Houthis are describing the Sudanese as if they were animals in a National Geographic documentary.
They describe them as "a Sudanese specimen", "their giant heads are perfect targets for a sniper" and similar.
Interesting propaganda.
