    EXCLUSIVE: Steve Bannon was target of bribery plot by top Qatari who invested in Ice Cube's basketball league to get to Trump's strategist and boasted 'Mike Flynn took our money', rapper claims in court
    • Rapper Ice Cube claims that he and his basketball league BIG3 were targeted by Qatari investors who wanted to use it to reach Steve Bannon
    • He and his co-CEO Jeff Kwatinetz claim that Qatari Ahmed al Rumaihi agreed to invest $20.5 million but only paid $7.5 m
    • Kwatinetz has made a legal statement saying that the Qatari plans were 'more about perceived influence in America' because he and Bannon were friends
    • The Qatari investor repeatedly asked about meeting Bannon before he was fired from his job as Donald Trump's chief strategist in the White House
    • And this year when Bannon left Breitbart and lost his backing from hedge fund billionaire Robert Mercer, the Qatari offered to underwrite his political efforts
    • Kwatinetz says Qatari investor wanted to meet Bannon to tell him the government of Qatar wanted to underwrite all his campaigning
    • Kwatinetz turned him down but investor accused him of being naive and said: 'Do you think Flynn turned down our money?'
    • Qatari investor Ahmed al Rumaihi claims to be acting on his own but is actually a member of the royal family who said the 'emir was like his brother', claims suit
