So REAL people asking questions embarrassing to Hegseth, like why did you cancel the rebuild of our nuclear missile silos which are in really bad shape and the budget had set up ONE BILLION dollars or close to for that infrastructure project that is a REAL national security issue.

So total incompetent sycophants take over, here is one of them, SERIOUSLY:
the PILLOW DUDE. You can tell Trump only hires the BEST.
I used to work at the Pentagon and reporters were treated with respect but Hegseth HATES the idea of reporters getting to write papers about issues Hegseth WILL cover up. ZERO new stories now, only Putin like sycophants following Putin around commenting on how HANDSOME Putin is, GREAT SUIT and the like, ask a question about Ukraine, in fact even calling it a war can get you thrown in jail.
But that is exactly what Trump wants to do with OUR country.

So meanwhile the plane given to Trump gets its billion dollar rebuild money from guess what, DIRECTLY out of the missile silo rebuilds.

"Recent news reports from mid-2025 indicate the U.S. Air Force transferred $934 million from the budget for the Sentinel nuclear missile program to fund the renovation of a Boeing 747-8 jet, which was a gift to Donald Trump from Qatar for use as a future Air Force One. This move has generated significant controversy, with critics arguing that essential nuclear weapons maintenance is being defunded for the refurbishment of a luxury presidential plane that Trump reportedly plans to keep as personal property after leaving office.
Details of the Situation
Fund Transfer: The Pentagon, under Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, transferred $934 million originally allocated to the Sentinel project.
Source of Funds: The Sentinel project is a massive, multi-billion dollar initiative to modernize the U.S.'s aging ground-based intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) and their silos, a program already facing significant cost overruns and delays.
Destination of Funds: The money was moved to a classified project related to the renovation of the gifted Qatari jet for presidential transport.
The Jet: The jet was a gift to the U.S. government from Qatar, but requires extensive, costly modifications (estimated to be near $1 billion) to meet the security and operational standards of Air Force One.
Controversy: The diversion of funds has drawn criticism from members of Congress and the public, who point out that the money was meant for crucial maintenance of the nuclear arsenal. There are also concerns that Trump intends to treat the plane as his personal property after his presidency, raising ethical questions about using taxpayer money for a personal asset.

There are so many issues here a single page can't BEGIN to list all the illegality of all that grift Trump is undertaking right out in plain sight. Like getting TWO BILLION from UAE and just after that Trump signs a chip bill using our most advanced AI chips. WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG.
BESIDES the fact Trump is LITERALLY making BILLIONS because of his office.
If any of this happened 30 or 40 years ago, there would have been an IMMEDIATE hue and cry for an impeachment and this one would have stuck but of course Trump OWNS house and senate so until Dems win back the house and senate with 60% levels, they can impeach Trump and make it stick. FOLLOWED BY sentencing Trump for his fraud cases that were not totally stopped.
Of course we dems have to win first before we can can this dictator.,
