I feel like it's deja vu because we talk about the corruption all the time. But over the weekend, it was a new high in corruption show us the article the trump administration is poised to accept palace in the sky as a gift for trump from qatar sources the luxury jumbo jet is to be used

as air force one sources told abc news And so I want to tell you what Dan Goldman, who has been a guest of this IHIP News, has said about this. Dan Goldman says Trump plans to accept a $400 million jet as a gift from Qatar to serve as Air Force One. Unsurprisingly, AG Pam Bondi, a former registered Qatar foreign agent, signed off on the deal. Unconstitutional does not begin to describe this brazen corruption, let alone the national security threats. And here's what Bernie Sanders had to say about it. I thought this was, as always, right on point. I don't know who needs to hear this, but no, Donald Trump cannot accept a $400 million flying palace from the royal family of Qatar. Not only is this farcically corrupt, it is blatantly unconstitutional. Congress must not allow this over the top kleptocracy to proceed.

And I think what's really important to note on this is that it requires congressional approval for him to accept this. He's already said he's going to accept it. It requires Pam Bondi to say, yes, it's fine. He can accept it. And we know now, put this clip up, Pam Bondi, unearthed records show that AG Pam Bondi, who authorized Trump's luxury plane gift from Qatar, was previously a lobbyist for Qatar, receiving over $100,000 monthly. This is corruption at the highest order. It's unconstitutional.

He should be impeached. He should be impeached. She should be impeached. It is amazing to me that they are not even trying to hide the corruption. I mean, this does not surprise me one bit because Trump doesn't care about American allies. He is very, he falls prey easily to wealth and superficial charm. And these very wealthy Middle Eastern countries know exactly what they're doing. They know that Trump likes gaudy and trashy looking stuff. And this plane is as gaudy and trashy as you can imagine. Trump's been droning on for nine years now about how he thought Air Force One was a piece of shit. He thought the White House was a shithole

during his first term. So it doesn't surprise me one bit that a country can just roll out that makes trillions of dollars off oil, egregious human rights violators, fund terrorist organizations, can then trot out some trashy plane with all of the gold fixtures in it and have him hook, line, sinker. It surprises me zero that Pam Bondi would go along with it. It surprises me zero that Congress isn't going to

step up and do anything. This man is able to do what everybody else in the world is not able to do. And he does it with impunity and with the support of tens of millions of people. And so let's go to the Constitution and what the Constitution says about gifts from foreign states. I mean, it's in black and white in the Constitution, pro-MAGA Constitution people. Here's what it says, no person holding any office of profit or trust under them shall, without the consent of the Congress, accept of any present emolument office or title of any kind from a king, prince, or foreign state. Here's the deal. The only people that can stop Trump from doing this, because he's certainly not going to stop for moral or ethical reasons is congress and what do

you think the odds of this pathetic enabling congress stopping him zero republicans will vote straight down the line that trump can have a plane from qatar and i thought what about the national security threat that this i mean how do we know they're not going to you know bug it and they'll be able to see and hear everything going on for Air Force One? There is no way you can tell me that they are not going to get something out of this in terms of national security. So I would hope that Republicans in Congress who at least act like they give a shit about national security would step in and try to stop this. But as we all know, it is the biggest bunch of ass-kissing beta males in the history of the world. I mean, I haven't heard any outcry from Republicans on this.

Have you? The fact of the matter is that he is now proposing to send the plane that he claims is a gift from Qatar to the Pentagon. And the Pentagon is going to retrofit it to be Air Force One. So my thing is this, if I'm a MAGA person and I'm like, I want things built in America, I want things for America, I want it by Americans. Well, the new Air Force One was ordered under Trump's first term to Boeing. The order was placed via Boeing, which as everybody knows, it is an American company. Well, Trump has impulse control and all of these foreign countries have psychological profiles on Trump, just as we have psychological profiles on others. This is the most easy, easily manipulatable man on the planet. You put money in front of him, you put corruption in front

of him, you praise him with superficial charm and flattery, and that's all it takes. This is American weakness, American corruption. And this type of thing has cascading generational impacts on the American brand. If our president of the United States is for sale from foreign adversaries that fund a lot of things that are against American interests, a lot of organizations that are against American interests. And he doesn't have the courage or the democratic principles to stand up to this. We are in a very dangerous place. This has economic impacts. It has stability impacts for global peace and the global structure of the world. This man believes whoever is sitting in front of him, who is offering, offering him money and tells him he's great. That's how easy it is. That's how easy it is, which always brings me back to these tens of millions of morally

bankrupt, morally flawed Americans that still die on the hill that this man is somehow good for this country or should be in charge of anything. And it's just an absolute disgrace. It's an absolute disgrace. And more than anything, we have got to have agency over what we read, what we consume for news, because right now we are seeing so much disinformation and misinformation in our news. And that's why Jennifer and I absolutely could not live without ground news. Ground news allows you to view stories and they will tell you, is this factual? What is the concentration of facts? Who is producing this news?

They also have a feature called blind spot. And that tells you what the right is looking at and what the left isn't and what the left is looking at and the right isn't. It's so important to know what the right wing is thinking about when it comes to the news so you can combat it. Jennifer and I absolutely love ground news. Yes. Every morning I get on and it's really interesting because you can see what the crazy people that, you know, acquaintances that are full blown MAGA, you can see what they're reading about. And it's nothing about all of the corruption that Trump is doing. And it's all of this, like owning the lib style headlines. I cannot tell you guys enough how fabulous ground news is not only as a tool to help you be a good citizen in these very

challenging times, but it's also, I mean, you can really spend a lot of time educating yourself instead of playing some stupid game online.

check that out and take a look. Okay, Jennifer, I'm saving the best for last because as we have said repeatedly on this show, Laura Loomer is a nut. She is a conspiracy theorist nut. Nobody's arguing with that. However, she goes into the White House and national security officials are fired based on her recommendation. So we know that she has Trump's ear. So while congressional Republicans are, you know, tongues are tight lipped about this plane gift, Laura Loomer has gone full steam ahead on it. And here's what Laura Loomer says. I love President Trump.

I would take a bullet for him, but I have to call a spade a spade. We cannot accept a 400 million gift from jihadists in suits. The Qatarists fund the same Iranian proxies in Hamas and Hezbollah who have murdered U.S. service members. The same proxies that have worked with the Mexican cartels to get jihadists across our border.

This is really going to be such a stain on the administration if this is true. And I say that as someone who would take a bullet for Trump, I'm so disappointed. What do you think about the little moment of clarity for Laura Loomer? Well, she's had multiple and they all have multiple where, you know, they're talking about law and order or they're talking about transparency and they're talking about helping the working class or they're talking about national security. And then Trump's mismanagement and mishandling because he has picked these alcoholics, untreated drug addicts, misfits in his cabinet.

The problem with Laura Loomer is when she says this, in order to get credibility with the base, she has to frame the tweet with, I would take a bullet for him. Right. And that is at the, that is at the core of the cult. It is, I'm going to tell you something logical. And in order for me to have credibility in my takedown of the Qatari government, I am going to have to say that I would die for President Trump. And that's how they get credibility within the cult. Listen, I love Barack Obama. I voted for him twice. I helped campaign for him. I would not take a bullet for him. I intentionally didn't go into the Secret Service because I'm gun adverse. I wouldn't do that. And if you're if you were a Joe Biden supporter or a Kamala supporter or Obama supporter,

you would never have to frame as a means to get credibility any sort of valid point you're making about something very illegal and unconstitutional with. I want everyone to know I would take a bullet for him. And she starts the tweet with that and she ends the tweet with that. So she has to sandwich the facts between those two things. And that's really telling about what a cult this whole MAGA movement is. Right. I mean, we cannot let facts get in the way of worship of our dear leader. Well, then when Trump proudly accepts the plane, he got full-lumored. So let

me read you this. This is great. Not only will the President of the United States be flying around on a 400 million jet paid by Qatar, but don't forget our own U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi was once a registered foreign lobbyist on behalf of Qatar. Bondi was compensated $115,000 per month by Qatar. Qatar has given over $1.8 billion to Hamas over the years. That's an incredible amount of influence for Qatar, a country that harbors Islamic terrorists, to have with our most senior officials, especially given the fact that Islam is completely incompatible with Western civilization and the Judeo-Christian values in our U.S. Constitution. So she comes out swinging at Trump and Pam Bondi, which we know she has a bee in her bonnet about Pam Bondi.

But here's the thing, like you said, the MAGA faithful are going to look at this and say, well, it's a bad look, but he is the best president. He is our favorite. He deserves the best. the entire world to know how pathetic and how completely devoid of ethics and morals Donald Trump and his administration are. Well, he's going to say, I got this for free. I'm saving the American public a ton of money. And they buy into that. They buy into the fact that Elon Musk has probably cost America more money with Doge. It's been the most failed government experiment of any of our lifetimes. And there is just an inherent problem with a percentage of the American public

that continue to look the other way. And how all of this corruption has become normalized, so has the American psyche. You see the American psyche devolve into this morally flawed group of people. And it helps you understand, if you're a student of history, how a government can get corrupt and then the people can get behind it. And I want to remind a lot of our viewers, obviously there are tens of millions of people who are not behind this, but they normalize this stuff. Trump does a lot of this stuff with impunity. The mainstream media is not nearly as hard on him as they should be. We all know they have a very strong and powerful right-wing media echo chamber that dwarfs the

pro-democracy media movement. And so this is just really alarming. But here's the thing. Laura Loomer's had her panties in a wad 15 different times over the Trump stuff. She puts out a tweet and then he's going to move on and do something more corrupt and more corrupt and more corrupt. And considering she'll take a bullet for him, she's going to give him a pass on the airplane. You're probably right. And what the sad truth is, like you said, by Friday, this story will no longer be in the news because the level of corruption will have taken another step up as it does every day.
