If the Attorney General Pam Bondi has his way, we will not learn the amazing amount of dollars of taxpayers spent to transform the “donation” of the Qatari government from a jet to the flying bribes palace that President Donald Trump is considering until it is important. There is no non -negative explanation for her refusal Release the memo of the Ministry of Justice stating that it is “legally allowed” that the president in office accepts a gift of $ 400 million in foreign government in a timely manner. It is a refusal that required the freedom of the press foundation which filed a lawsuit on the law on freedom of information to try to shake this thing.
Pam, if you think the Emoluments clause I’m not shit, say it with your whole chest! Do not hide your acute legal analysis under a bushel! America would love to see how you, a former lobbyist For the Qatari government, I decided that it was not a conflict of interest for you to bless this arrangement. It would also be exciting to know how you decided that it was not only a bribes of $ 400 million whose non-corrupt president would have run by shouting.
May 15, a day after reports This signature of Bondi on a memo of legal advisor ceased what paved the way for a clearly obvious bridge pot, the freedom of the press foundation has filed an accelerated foia request for the memo. Then they waited. And expected. After following June 16, they obtained a Cauldron response It was a brush in equal parts and lie:
Please note that the search for your request is underway and accordingly, we have limited information to provide an estimated completion date. Until we finished our research and we know what treatments must be carried out (such as consultations with other offices whose information may exist in any material that we find), the best estimate that I can provide is the average processing time of requests for the accelerated track of this office which is 620 days as published in the annual report of the Tax Fiscal 2024. May 15, 2025 would be January 25, 2027. Do not forget that it is an estimate based on limited information and consequently subject to variation.
Guys: It’s a memo. A memo. That Bondi and Trump confirmed and boasted. There is no “search for your request” in progress, and the way you provide estimates of response foia is not to say simply: “Well, at the moment, everything takes 620 days, so it’s when you get it. Maybe.” Some foia requests can take an internal priority, certain foia requests can be bulky, certain foia requests can affect dozens of departments and certain Foia requests may require tons of complex writing. It is literally a request for a specific document that the government has revealed exists by boasting of the way it allowed Qatar to bring Trump. But according to the Doj, their best supposition as for the time they could find time to release it, it falls just after not only the mid-term elections, but also the seats of the new congress. Practical
It also seems to be a date chosen to spend beyond the time planned to rehabilitate the Qatari jet in the gold-plated monstrosity that the demand for Trump’s “taste” and make it viable to be used as Air Force One. Do you want to know how many of your dollars taxpayers go about it? You can’t. It’s a secret. No, really.

The administration has classified the information, but it seems that the funding flow comes from an existing project to modernize American nuclear missiles. 934 million dollars seem to have been transferred from this and in a classified nameless project, which, even the New York Times, called “almost certainly” the renovation of the Qatari jet.
It is estimated that the work will take a year or two, which means that the administration must run out of the clock to provide any information that could cause public outcry. Trump needs taxpayers without knowing how to grant him helping the Qatari government’s method to obtain favorable treatment on his part and not to stop his gold -plated dreams with nonsense as how illegal this is. Especially because the Americans are Not exactly wild About all of this.
But the more it remains in the dark, the more we will probably have paid most of what Trump wants before anyone is wiser. And remember, regardless of the quantity of your money spent for this thing, in the end, it personally benefits Trump, because it will be triggered with him in his possible brothel palace-his presidential library.
Yes, the jet will join the billions and billions Dollars extracted from bankrupt media companies wishing Curry’s favor of Trump. It would have been cheaper for media magnats just to buy him a jet or two, honestly.

The fight on this subject will end where all these fights on Trump’s corruption are making: the Supreme Court of the United States. You just know that Judge Clarence Thomas has already pre-written the majority opinion explaining how it is not a bridge pot when the president does. Oh, and in a small footnote below: it is not a bridge pot when judge Thomas leaves the billionaires with the business before the highest court takes his vacation tab, so stop disturbing him.
Corruption generates – and protects – corruption, and the rest of us literally pays the price.
