Musk and Kushner spotted at World Cup final

Twitter CEO Elon Musk and former White House senior adviser Jared Kushner were spotted enjoying the 2022 FIFA World Cup final on Sunday at Lusail Stadium in Lusail, Qatar.

Musk live-tweeted the match between Argentina and France through text and video.

“Duel in the Desert,” he tweeted.

“Couldn’t ask for a better game,” he added, noting the “incredible play” of both teams.

The Twitter CEO also noted that there were 24,400 tweets per second for France’s first goal, which came after Argentina had scored two goals. He said it was the “highest ever for World Cup.”

Kushner was seen standing next to Musk at the game. The former White House adviser, who is married to former President Trump’s daughter Ivanka Trump, was seen at other World Cup matches as well, including the United States’ World Cup match against England with the Trump family.

Earlier this month, House Oversight and Reform Committee Chairwoman Carolyn Maloney (D-N.Y.) and Senate Finance Committee Chairman Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) asked the State and Defense departments for various records on Kushner’s family business. The lawmakers raised concerns about his financial interests as he influenced the Trump administration’s foreign policy in the Persian Gulf.
