The President's plan to accept a $400 million luxury jet from the Qatari royal family is a flagrant violation of ethical norms and risks enabling foreign influence over American policy through bribery. This gift represents an obvious attempt by Qatar to gain leverage and curry favor with the administration. No president should be permitted to accept lavish personal gifts from foreign powers, as it creates insidious conflicts of interest that undermine America's sovereignty. I urge you to use your authority to block this corrupt arrangement and hold the President accountable to the highest standards of ethical conduct in office. We cannot allow foreign money to distort policymaking for private gain. The American people deserve leaders who are beholden only to the national interest, not enriching themselves through improper favors from other nations. Please take immediate action to stop this unacceptable plan from moving forward.
