I don’t think I could sleep at night if these wonderful judges/lawyers weren’t out there throwing sand into the trump ILLEGAL AF actions!!

Ffs! Just impeach the Toxic Peach!

Michele Price's avatar

Yup, it is almost as if folks are stuck "observing" instead of taking action.

Trump wants brownie points for backing off of the chaos he created in everything. In trump 1.0..putting kids in cages was horrendous...but when he released them via the courts, daughter Ivanka says, "thank you daddy!" ..talk about wanting to throw up....One does not get brownie points for reversing shit they create.

Why is everyone discussing the cost of retrofitting the plane, etc.? Why is no one saying that he cannot accept the plane because it states so in the Constitution. It should be "No Mr. President! You are not getting this gift of the plane because it is illegal". Again it looks like we are normalizing something that he is doing. So tired of all this BS and him getting away with so much. Thank God for the Meidas Touch!

The DOJ already approved it.

Michael Stayton's avatar

Their approval is meaningless and BS. What Pam Bloni means is that the DOJ will not indict, try or convict him for taking possession of the Palace Jet.

Article I, Section 9, Clause 8:

No Title of Nobility shall be granted by the United States: And 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 whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State.

Summary: No President shall, without the Consent of CONGRESS, accept any $400M JET from any EMIR or PRINCE from QATAR.

That's what I understood, too, but the way that Bondi said it , it sounded like it was a done deal and when Johnson was asked about it, he said it wasn't his job.

Michael Stayton's avatar

She is acting as Trump's lawyer. Not the People's lawyer.

Johnson is a spineless sickophant. 'Not my job': But that is ok in this mess. Congress has to act to give its consent. Congress not acting should mean it does not give consent.

Meidas, anyone know when he'll be held accountable going for his clearly violation of many executive orders including the constitution.

Curious when they probably convict and imprison Trump does the country get restitution for his ill-gotten gains?

Is there a transcript of this for those of us who cannot hear?

Angela White's avatar

You should be able to get closed captions (CC) on your video? I'm watching it with subtitles now.

Barbara Blundell's avatar

Responding to another comment, I also would very much appreciate it if transcripts were made available to all video/audio posts. Hearing impaired people would really appreciate it. Don't want to miss any of Meidas content! Keep up the good work!!!!

Bottom line - the United States is being looted by Russian invaders squatting in their WH….

Looting won’t stop until someone physically yanks them out… the sooner the better.

I cannot wait until we GET him.

Why are the American's paying for it (His trips for personal gain). tRump has two loves in life. To get as rich as he possibly can and golf. I would love to see him golf, in a match, with one of the true golfers and not be able to cheat. He would go balistic because he lost. I suspect, that he wants to be the world's richest man and that is his goal. He didn't become president, to represent our country and do government business. He became president to use his position to rip off the American people and gain money from corruption. I hope he rots in hell.

Strip the plane down to the frame and leave it. Just walk away. Let the Airforce do with it whatever they want. Cargo plane.

Here is my alternative use of the Qatar 747-8:

If it stays with the government, then here is what to do with it:

1. Boeing is fitting two 747-8 to replace the current AF1s. Ready in 2027. Contract was signed for these two by Trump in his first term(one of his deals).

2. This Qatar 747-8 is flown to the Arizona Airplane Boneyard.

3. Inspected for espionage devices.

4. Use it for spare parts for the Boeing 747-8 AF1s.

5. Add it the boneyard tours. It would make for a great attraction.

Gitmo is a US Naval Base. Not a foreign country. The US leased it after the Spanish American War in 1903. It is a strategic advantage for the U.S. Navy, particularly for defending the Panama Canal and the southern U.S. coast. Since it is considered an American territory probably not the best example of a prison overseas.
