This question is in regard to the grifted $400-million aircraft that is being retrofitted as an Air Force One.

As retrofitting may or not be completed by the time the president leaves office, will the aircraft go through a de-mil process removing advanced avionics, communications and defensive systems before it is turned over to the Trump Library? As we know he plans to use it as his personal plane when he leaves office and that it could be an intelligence gold mine to adversaries, is there a plan to handle the obvious security issues with this and what might be a good guesstimate of the cost. Additionally, if our government was functioning properly, what would have been the proper procedure to have shut this process down? Congress?

My guess is none of the secret electronics or defense systems will be installed.

Then why do anything to it, except for maybe a "custom" paint job that Trump would pay for? It made the flight over here, so it "must" be airworthy.

What happens to NATO if the orange turd pulls out of alliance and can Congress prevent or negate such a move?

What are the chances Trump, Eric and Don, Jr. will be held accountable for the millions of dollars being made on inside trader profits prior to Trump’s posts on the situation in Iran and their stake in the drone company being solicited to countries in the Middle East?

Marietta's avatar

Exactly! The Middle East peace negotiator with zero experience whose sole objective is to line his pockets and the pockets of the Trump family members.

The law of the land now states that all men 18-25 years old will automatically be listed in the eligible draft pool. This includes green card holders. They will be using all of our data (maybe the data collected through DOGE) in order to make sure of this.

Barron had better be included. And all of Whitkof's sons if eligible, and every single congressional member's sons.

What a sad, sad look for this country.

Probably the same as I have for winning the lottery, as I've never bought a ticket.

Do you think we have lost more soldiers than we are being told? We hear nothing of the injured as well.

If Trump and Hegseth commit war crimes, who holds them accountable? How does it work?

Rhetta Standifer's avatar

Nolie

Unfortunately, the reality is little to nothing would happen to them, most likely. This is because of the United States' non-membership in the International Criminal Court (ICC). The ICC could technically hold them accountable, but it's practically improbable. More's the pity.

I think however if they travel to a member country they could be arrested then.

Rhetta Standifer's avatar

Yes, that is correct. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel can be arrested in over 120 countries that are members of the ICC for alleged war crimes, for example.

Is it true that Trump ordered the military to nuke Iran? And that General Cain overruled it? What safeguards are there to prevent nuclear war by a President?

Adam, Who in the Democratic World is leading an effort to create a "2030 Project" to overturn the avalanche of Vaught/Trump terrible policies and administrative nightmare?

Steve Kaufman's avatar

What’s up with Marco Rubio? Shouldn’t the Secretary of State be integral to the Iran negotiations?

Vickie's avatar

Hi Adam. Thanks for taking questions. In your opinion, why are retired military (and civilian) men and women who worked in the Trump first term not speaking out about his horrific and ignorant foreign policy? And anything else they witnessed for that matter? I would think it may help at the margins because voters wouldn’t consider these people to be the “woke left”. Are people afraid that Trump supporters will come after them? I can’t figure out why more aren’t trying to save our democracy. Thanks again! And I love your videos and commentary! You are the best!

Do you think the liquor twins will get fired soon? (Kegsbreath and $ash)

What is it going to take to remove the orange embarrassment from office? Seriously, the world knows he’s suffering from progressive dementia. How is this allowed?

Linda Chase's avatar

This will seem like a “general” sort of question but… with all the criminal acts taking place almost DAILY (Congress not declaring war, subpoenaed people just ignoring their calls to testify, etc etc) WHO in the present government is actually IN CHARGE? Why is no one being jailed, indicted, expelled.. when this would have happened in sane administrations? Is there no rule of law that anyone can bring to bear on the offenders? I see no one being called out on ethical breeches, no one put away for lying to Congress, etc. So WHO is supposed to be running the Justice dept to punish these offenders?

Nancy Solomon's avatar

I think the Heritage Foundation folks are in charge. trump is just a puppet who doesn't realize he's a puppet.

Linda Chase's avatar

That sounds quite plausible, unfortunately!!!

My question is How do we get everyone out of these treacherous camps inside the United States? How do we shut these down and let these people go immediately???
