The future of EA has looked, well, uncertain since it got picked up in the biggest leveraged buyout in private equity history. For one thing, it's now on the hook for $20 billion in debt.

LGBT people and women more generally face repression in Saudi Arabia, while Kushner, of course, has strong ties to a Trump administration which has made attacking LGBT rights a cornerstone of its platform.
