Trump Lashes Out at ‘Fools’ Doubting $400 Mn Qatar Jet Gift; Trump Says It's for the US, But Is It?

Trump fiercely defended the controversial $400 million Boeing 747 jet gifted by Qatar, lashing out at critics as "fools" and insisting the aircraft is meant for the United States — not for him personally. Trump claims the jet will serve as a temporary Air Force One replacement and save taxpayer dollars. But prominent Republicans and ethics experts are raising red flags over the optics, legality, and potential security risks, questioning whether the gift is truly for America or a veiled personal perk. #TrumpQatarJet #TrumpNews #QatarGiftToTrump #TrumpJet #QatarJetGift #TrumpQatarDeal #Trump400MJet #QatarRoyalGift #TrumpQatarVisit #QatarLuxuryJet #TrumpPlaneQatar #TrumpJetControversy #QatarToTrump #TrumpPresidency #QatarPlaneGift Also Read Trump Declares Columbus Day Will Remain Unchanged Amid Indigenous Peoples Day Recognition :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-reinstates-columbus-day-amid-indigenous-peoples-day-debate-011-4136967.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Considers Temporary Exemption from Auto Tariffs to Aid Car Manufacturers Amid Economic Challenges :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-considers-temporary-exemption-auto-tariffs-011-4124041.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Dismisses General Tim Haugh from National Security Agency Amidst Congressional Concerns :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-fires-general-tim-haugh-national-security-agency-011-4115013.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~PR.152~ED.346~

Trump Signs Orders Scrapping Biden-Era Rules, Targets Appliance And Consumer Product Regulations

President Donald Trump has signed a series of executive orders repealing key Biden-era energy regulations. These include controversial standards imposed on gas water heaters, household appliances, commercial refrigerators, and walk-in freezers. Backed by Republican lawmakers, the move is framed as a victory for American households and small businesses. Trump stated the repeals will reduce unnecessary burdens, lower energy costs, and return decision-making power to consumers. The orders aim to undo what Trump called last-minute regulations under Biden that hurt everyday Americans and stifled economic freedom in the name of overregulation. #Trump2025 #TrumpOrders #BidenEraRepeal #EnergyRegulations #ApplianceStandards #GasWaterHeaters #FreeMarket #TrumpRepeals #HouseholdAppliances #RegulationRollback #TrumpExecutiveOrder #BidenRulesScrapped #WalkInCoolers #CommercialFreezers #EnergyFreedom #TrumpVsBiden #HomeownerRights #RegulatoryReform #TrumpWhiteHouse #TrumpPolicies Also Read Trump Reacts to Indian Missile Strikes: 'It’s a Shame,' Calls for Swift Resolution :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-reacts-to-indian-missile-strikes-it-s-a-shame-calls-for-swift-resolution-4145511.html?ref=DMDesc Trump and Carney Face Off in Oval Office Over Trade War and Tariffs :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-carney-faceoff-oval-office-trade-war-011-4145443.html?ref=DMDesc What Donald Trump’s 100% Tariff On Foreign Films Could Mean For Indian Entertainment Industry | Explained :: https://www.oneindia.com/business/what-donald-trump-s-100-tariff-on-foreign-films-could-mean-for-indian-entertainment-industry-expl-4144927.html?ref=DMDesc

Watch: Trump Reopens Alcatraz For U.S' Most Ruthless And Violent Offenders’ | All About Alcatraz

Donald Trump has stunned America by ordering the reopening and expansion of the infamous Alcatraz prison. The former president says the facility will house the country’s most “vicious and violent” offenders. Once home to criminals like Al Capone, Alcatraz shut down in 1963 and is now a popular tourist attraction. Critics, including top Democrats, have slammed the move as theatrical and legally dubious. Trump insists it’s a powerful symbol of law and order. But is this about justice, or just politics?

Big Win for Trump: U.S Senate rejects bill to undo Trump’s Reciprocal Tariffs [Video]

Big Win for Trump: U.S Senate rejects bill to undo Trump’s Reciprocal Tariffs

In a major political victory for Donald Trump, the U.S. Senate has rejected a resolution aimed at overturning his reciprocal tariffs, solidifying his economic stance even as the American economy shows signs of contraction. The resolution—introduced by Democrat Ron Wyden and backed by some Republicans-was narrowly defeated in a 49-49 vote. Vice President J.D. Vance broke the tie, blocking further Senate efforts to challenge Trump's use of emergency powers to impose tariffs.The vote came just hours after official data showed the U.S. economy shrinking for the first time in three years. Critics warn the tariffs could fuel inflation and worsen the economic outlook, but Trump maintains they are vital to counter global trade imbalances. #TrumpTariffs #SenateVote #USPolitics #BreakingNews #TradeWar #USEconomy #JDVance #RonWyden #Trump2025 #TariffDebate #Inflation #EconomicEmergency #CapitolHill #Republicans #Democrats #TariffWar #Trump #Vance ~ED.103~HT.336~GR.124~
