BREAKING: MAGA world explodes with rage as Pete Hegseth makes the jaw-dropping announcement that Qatar will build an air force facility in Idaho and station their fighter planes on U.S. soil.
The Qataris bribed Trump with a private jet and now he’s paying them back tenfold…
“And I’m also proud that today we’re announcing or we’re signing a letter of acceptance to build a Qatari Emeri Air Force facility at the Mountain Home Air Base in Idadho,” Defense Secretary Hegseth said while sitting beside Qatari Defense Minister Abdulrahman Al Thani.
“The location will host a contingent of Qatari F-15s and pilots to enhance our combined training, increase lethality, inner-operability. It’s just another example of our partnership and I hope you know, Your Excellency, you can count on us.”
Qatar is a close ally of China and the two have recently entered into what has been described as a “Golden Era” of strategic partnership. Putting Qatari military facilities inside the United States is akin to stationing Chinese troops.
Far-right provocateur, noted Trump ally, and virulent Islamophobe Laura Loomer had a meltdown on X over the air base announcement—
“Never thought I’d see Republicans give terror financing Muslims from Qatar a MILITARY BASE on US soil so they can murder Americans,” she wrote. “I don’t think I’ll be voting in 2026. I cannot in good conscience make any excuses for the harboring of jihadis. “This is where I draw the line.”
Other MAGA supporters had similar reactions all across social media. Even diehard Trump fans are having difficulty defending this decision.
This truly stunning announcement — which constitutes a profound betrayal of American national security interests — comes in the wake of the equally shocking announcement that Trump has signed an executive order promising to use the U.S. military to defend Qatar. It amounts to a security pact similar to NATO’s Article 5, which interprets any attack on one member state as an attack on all. In other words, Trump has pledged to send American troops to fight and die if Qatar needs them.
On top of that arrangement, Trump announced in May that he would be accepting a $400 million Boeing 747-8 plane as a “free gift” from Qatar to use as Air Force One. Stripping the jet down and implementing the proper security measures will cost tax payers as much as $1 billion. It also seems highly likely that Trump will try to take the plane with him when he leaves office.
In April, the Trump Organization inked a deal to build a luxury golf resort in Qatar, assuring that even more Qatar money will flow into Trump’s pockets.
Any single one of these corrupt Qatari deals would have brought down any other president, leading to impeachment and removal. Imagine the outrage if President Obama had greenlit plans to station the forces of a Muslim nation within our borders. But for Trump, blatant criminality and graft is expected at this point.
