Trump family-linked firm seeking to sell drone interceptors to Gulf states amid war

A drone company backed by Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr, sons of  US President Donald Trump, is seeking to sell equipment to Gulf countries reliant on US military support during the US-Israeli war on Iran.

Powerus co-founder Brett Velicovich told the Associated Press the firm is holding demonstrations across the region, showcasing drone interceptors designed to counter Iranian attacks.

“These countries are under enormous pressure to buy from the sons of the president so he will do what they want,” Richard Painter, a former chief White House ethics lawyer, said. “This is going to be the first family of a president to make a lot of money off war - a war he didn’t get the consent of Congress for.”
