Today excellent Washington Post National Columnist Philip Bump @pbump asks: Why aren't we talking more about Trump's business with the Saudis?

It's a great question. One that the incredible investigative journalist Wendy Siegelman @wendysiegelman has been TALKING ABOUT for a quite a while now:

https://newstracs.com/saudi-arabia-funding-to-trump-and-kushner/2022/09/28/

We are super fortunate Wendy showcases her work here. If you like in depth coverage of things some people would like to keep covered up, follow @wendysiegelman .
