What happens when billions of dollars, powerful Gulf monarchies, and the inner circle of the American presidency intersect?

Princes and Thieves examines the controversial allegations surrounding Jared Kushner, Mohamed bin Zayed, and Mohammed bin Salman, exploring claims of foreign influence, secret financial arrangements, and efforts to reshape Middle East politics during Donald Trump’s first presidency.
