A Vanity Fair excerpt from an upcoming book alleges that Russian military intelligence hacked former Trump White House senior adviser Jared Kushner's phone, exposing purported access to Middle Eastern bank accounts holding at least $2 billion.
The article, published Thursday, was an exclusive excerpt from a book written by Matthew Cole entitled "Princes and Thieves: Jared Kushner and Mohamed bin Zayed's Secret Plot to Remake the Middle East." (RELATED: The Deep State Is Leaking Trump's Most Sensitive Undercover Operations To The Washington Post)
The excerpt said that sometime between 2017 and 2018, Russian military intelligence was able to hack Kushner's phone.
After Dutch intelligence arranged for British authorities to apprehend a Russian military intelligence operative and offered him the choice of cooperating against the Russians or facing arrest, the operative gave the Dutch access to a Russian intelligence server containing screenshots of Kushner's iPhone. Dutch intelligence later developed its own method of monitoring Kushner's screen as he used his phone.
Cole alleged that Kushner had access to "Alpha" and "Beta" bank accounts connected to leaders of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Saudi Arabia.

The Biden administration's Department of Homeland Security (DHS) scheduled Pride Month events during government working hours, including a pansexual forum and LGBTQ educational videos at a federal law enforcement training center, according to records obtained exclusively by the Daily Caller News Foundation.
The 20-page June 2023 calendar details planned events at FEMA, the Secret Service, immigration agencies and other DHS components, according to documents obtained through a Freedom of Information Act request by the Center to Advance Security in America (CASA). President Donald Trump subsequently ordered federal agencies to dismantle diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programs, raising questions about whether the activities documented in the records continued under his administration.
The DCNF asked DHS whether it had discontinued the Biden-era Pride Month programming, whether similar events occurred in 2025 or 2026, and what policy changes the Trump administration implemented regarding DEI initiatives and employee activities. The White House referred to the DHS, which did not respond to a request for comment.

An animal rights group is asking the Hawaii Supreme Court to order the release of two elephants from the Honolulu Zoo in a case that could endanger hunting rights for gun owners.
The Nonhuman Rights Project (NhRP) and lawyers representing the city and county of Honolulu will deliver oral arguments before Hawaii's highest court on Nov. 9, the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) reported.

"If courts extend animal personhood theories to other species and contexts, anti-hunting activist litigants could seek to challenge established wildlife management decisions in the name of individual animal rights," Keane wrote. "That is a risk hunters and wildlife agencies cannot afford to dismiss."
