Warren and Senate Democrats Push for Probe Amid Trump's Qatari Jet Deal Controversy
Democratic lawmakers are pushing for a probe into Trump's plan to pull funds from an Air Force nuclear modernization program, amid controversy over his private jet deal with Qatar. A group of senators is seeking details from Secretary of the Air Force Troy Meink on the administration's plan to redirect funds.
Democratic lawmakers are pushing for a probe into the Trump administration's decision to divert funds from an Air Force nuclear modernization program at President Trump's expense. The program, which is valued at $2 billion, was intended for retrofits to existing nuclear-capable aircraft, but the funds will now be redirected to Trump's luxury private jet in Qatar. Senate Democrats are urging Secretary of the Air Force Troy Meink for information on the decision and its potential implications for national security. The move has sparked criticism from lawmakers who argue that the funds should be used to support military modernization efforts rather than personal indulgences.
