00:01
As disturbing as this latest news about a Guattari Air Force One is, it is frankly just the tip of the iceberg.
00:10
For months, Guattari and other Gulf state nationals have spent billions on deals with the Trump organizations,
00:17
seemingly to buy access to the president, including a $2 billion from the UAE venture capital firm for Donald Trump's new stablecoin,
00:27
including the launch of a new Trump hotel in Dubai, worth over a billion dollars,
00:35
and the construction of a beachside golf course in Gutter, potentially worth $5 billion.
00:42
Donald Trump's business deals in the Middle East reek of crooked self-enrichment.
00:48
He isn't just blurring the line between public service and personal profit.
00:52
He's erasing it.
00:54
This isn't speculation, it's fact, backed by overwhelming evidence.
00:59
He is jeopardizing America's national security to line his own pockets.
01:04
What is most chilling about this brazen bribe and the national security betrayal is how openly Donald Trump is doing it.
01:12
How he is lying about the need for this aircraft and the risks involved.
01:16
And how he is daring Republicans to call him out.
01:21
And how are Republicans responding?
01:24
With silence.
01:26
With their heads in the sand.
01:28
Total obeisance.
01:29
Afraid to tell the emperor he has no clothes.
01:34
Well, Republicans may be too scared to stand up to Donald Trump,
01:37
but I will keep pushing and Senate Democrats will keep pushing
01:41
to get more answers to this nakedly crooked arrangement with Qatar.
01:46
Until the American people learn the truth about this deal,
01:50
I will do my part to block the galling and truly breathtaking politicization
01:55
at the Department of Justice.
01:58
Thank you very much.
