Let’s not make this complicated.
Of course it’s a bribe.
Everyone knows it’s a bribe. The Qataris know it’s a bribe. Trump knows it’s a bribe. Even MAGA simps know it’s a bribe.
And you’re not crazy to think that it’s brazenly corrupt and illegal with hair on it. It’s exactly this sort of thing that the Founders had in mind when they wrote the Emoluments Clause.
The Qataris have been buying influence, access and clout for years, so they are veterans of payola. They could have given Trump piles of gold bars like the ones used to bribe Senator Bob Menendez; or envelopes of cash like Spiro Agnew pocketed. They could simply have purchased billions of dollars of $TRUMP meme coins. Or they could have given him secret accounts like the ones they used to finance Hamas and other terror groups.
But, writes Kevin Manahan:
What do you give to a president who already has enriched himself and his family by an average of $1 billion per month since taking office?
What could a guy — the most powerful man on the planet, who is planning 20 branded real estate projects around the globe — possibly want?
So the Qataris chose the fanciest lagniappe of all — a jumbo bribe on wings that will touch every one of Trump’s erogenous zones of avarice and excess.

But, but, but Pam Bondi, the Attorney General for gosh sake, has said this 'deal' was entirely within ethics and the law. Who could question her? Of course, she was a paid consultant for the Qataris at the tune of $100K + per month, but that was before...

Don’t forget, Pete.
This is the “law and order” administration. So, of course it’s all perfectly legal.
So, too, will the crushing of Habeas corpus be perfectly legal when it occurs. It’s a necessary tool, needed to fight Venezuela’s invading army.

This is all kosher, and not-at-all unconstitutional, says Trump’s attorney general, Pam Bondi — who until recently was paid $115,000 a month as a registered foreign lobbyist for the Qatari government.
This entire regime is corrupt to the core. A government of grifters, liars and cheats.
