Something you will never see on Fox

30. Up until recently...

Congressional Republicans are too willing to let TSF control the purse. Note that they were willing to rescind previously approved spending at his whim, thereby increasing my public media donations. Their latest rescission bill shows that they live to cede their authority to the Orange One.

Just like his cabinet members, eh? Most current example: Hegseth, who apparently just elided a little under a billion from a nuclear readiness update program, Sentinel, to fund a classified project. Coincidentally that 934 million was right about the amount I saw some knowledgeable observers estimate it would cost to prepare the "free" plane from Qatar for use an AF1.

Also note: It's unlikely that the conversion to AF1, could be completed before his term expires. The Secret Service (if they didn't want to get spied on) would require a removal of the interior, re-assembly of the plane from the air frame inward, all new electronic systems installation, re-installation of the plan's innards and those shiny gold gee-jaws he likes so much, and of course the testing. This means that it will be ready just about the time it gets donated to the Trump presidential library. Of course that's assuming he actually leaves...
