Trump and his family are deeply financially involved with the Saudi government, and considering the fact that Trump is running for president yet again, it’s shocking that nobody seems to care.
that the subpoena also asked for the Trump Organization’s real estate licensing and development deals in China, France, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates and Oman since 2017, when Trump became president. Most of the D.C. punditocracy has dismissed this as nothing more than Smith “dotting his I’s and crossing his T’s” before he makes his case. Maybe they’re right.
It’s never been easy to separate Trump’s financial motivations from his massive ego. He’s excessively subject to flattery and that’s often enough to gain his support. But his relationship with the Saudis clearly has a major financial component, as does Jared Kushner’s, and all of that seems to be tied to their time in the White House.
If Trump were just retiring to his golf resorts and taking advantage of all the contacts he made while president, it might be reasonable just to let it go in the interest of never having to think about him again. But he’s the clear frontrunner for the 2024 Republican nomination and he’s openly helping the Saudi regime “sportswash” its human rights record while taking unknown millions from it.
Let’s hope that unlike Robert Mueller, who refused to exceed his mandate and look at Trump’s finances, Jack Smith sees this for the blatant corruption it is. Otherwise, we’re just accepting that it’s perfectly OK for presidents and presidential candidates to do big favors for autocratic foreign governments in exchange for money.

Fearing indictment is imminent in classified docs probe, Trump team requests meeting with DOJFormer President Donald Trump's legal team has formally requested a meeting with Attorney General Merrick Garland, amid fears from his attorneys that the coming weeks could bring a possible indictment of Trump regarding his alleged efforts to retain materials after leaving office and to obstruct the government's attempts to retrieve them. The letter, though thin on details, was sent so Trump's lawyers could present arguments that Trump should not be charged in the investigation related to his alleged mishandling of classified documents, sources familiar with the matter tell ABC News. The letter asks Garland for a meeting at his earliest convenience to discuss what the attorneys describe as the 'ongoing injustice that is being perpetrated' by special counsel Jack Smith and says that no president has been 'baselessly investigated' in such an 'unlawful fashion.'
