In January, it was revealed that Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner would be moving into a nearly 7,000-square-foot home in the Kalorama neighborhood of Washington, DC.

It turns out their landlord is Chilean billionaire Andrónico Luksic, according to a new report by the Wall Street Journal.

Luksic, who bought the home for $5.5 million through a shell company in December, is currently feuding with the US government through another company he owns, Antofagasta PLC, and its subsidiary, Twin Metals Minnesota LLC.

The company's wish to build a mine in Minnesota was blocked by Obama-era federal regulators because of environmental concerns. The mine, which would have brought up copper and nickle ore from one of the largest reserves of such metals in the world, would have been adjacent to a protected wilderness area.
