Thomas Joseph Barrack Jr. is an American private equity real estate investor and the founder and executive chairman of Colony Capital, a publicly traded real estate investment trust (REIT). Barrack has for decades been a close friend of and fundraiser for former U.S. President Donald Trump, representing him in television news appearances. He was senior adviser to Trump's presidential campaign and served as the chairman of his Inaugural Committee. In July 2021, Barrack was briefly jailed under an indictment alleging that he worked as an unregistered foreign agent of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), obstructed justice, and lied to the FBI. The indictment was broadened in May 2022 to include allegations that Barrack sought hundreds of millions of dollars in investments from the UAE while illegally lobbying the Trump administration on its behalf.
