Khanna Probes UAE Investment In Trump Firm
Rep. Ro Khanna launched an investigation Thursday into a $500 million Aryam Investment 1 purchase of a 49% stake in World Liberty Financial, linked to UAE adviser Sheikh Tahnoon bin Zayed Al Nahyan. Khanna says the deal — which routed about $187 million to Trump-related entities — preceded a reversal of U.S. export controls that allowed the UAE access to tens of thousands of advanced AI chips, and he demands 16 categories of records by March 1 over national-security and conflict-of-interest concerns.
