💰✈️ Qatar, a Middle Eastern monarchy, gave Trump a plane and a golf course. Now he’s giving them a military base in Idaho. That’s not diplomacy. That’s bribery.

In 2017, Trump publicly accused Qatar of funding terrorism.

Today, the regime announced that Qatari pilots will train at a U.S base in Idaho.

I’m sure Bondi’s established and well-documented relationship with Qatari leaders & investors has nothing to do with this, or the plane. Total coincidence

Sending billions to Argentina while laying off Americans at home.

Letting Qatar build a base on US soil coz they bribed Trump with a plane and are investing billions in his personal business ventures.

Doesn’t seem like “America First”, does it?

Pete Hegseth announced an agreement today to build a Qatari Emiri Air Force facility at a U.S. Air Force Base in Idaho.

Reminder: Earlier this year, the Trump admin accepted a Boeing 747 jet as a gift from the Qatari royal family.

Don’t worry, the US military, under the direction of Pete Hegseth, will simply order service members to stop wearing their uniforms off-base.

Problem solved, no more service members seen at food banks.

Argentina gets $20 billion. Qatar gets an air base on US soil. Dipshit gets nearly $1 billion to retrofit his flying bribe. ICE gets $11.25 billion added to their annual detention budget.

But our enlisted personnel are currently hitting up food banks to fucking eat because they aren't getting paid.

Trump takes corruption to a new level—pocketing a $400M jet from Qatar, planning a $5.5B Trump-branded resort in Doha, and greenlighting a Qatari airbase in Idaho in return.

Peter Thiel and Musk have also taken large sums from Qatar.

Clearly, money matters more than this country.

If Republicans refuse to work with Democrats to protect the health care tax credits, his premiums will increase from $51 to $2,250 a MONTH.

Peter Thiel and #NaziElmo amply demonstrate the evils of oligarchy.

A man married to another man, Peter Thiel is forcing harsh Evangelical theocracy and intrusive spying on every US citizen, excepting his billionaire buddies.

Peter Thiel, AuntieChrist!
