Secretary of War Pete Hegseth announced on Friday that the U.S. has approved the establishment of a Qatari Emiri Air Force facility at US base in Idaho
When Qatar announced they were giving President Trump a $400 million dollar Boeing luxury jet, it seemed like a gift, extravagant as such a gift might be. But today, that ‘gift’ is looking a lot more like a payoff after the shocking announcement of approval for a Qatari Air Force Base in Idaho. I am not sure exactly how ‘America First’ such a move is, and that’s the memo.
“When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn.” Proverbs 29:2 (KJB)
People get mad at me, saying that I am “too hard on Trump”, but honestly I think I need to step my game up a little. Trump is doing a lot of very questionable and highly sketchy things, and we need to hold him to the same standard we held Bush, Obama and Biden to. Something is very wrong at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, and today’s announcement of an Islamic military base on American soil should be sending shockwaves throughout your entire brain as you read this. Or maybe you think it’s a good idea?
Trump Admin Sparks MAGA Fury With Qatari Air Force Base in US—’Betrayed’
FROM NEWSWEEK: It’s a move that has drawn backlash from some of the administration’s closest Make America Great Again (MAGA) allies, with Laura Loomer saying, “I have never felt more betrayed by the GOP,” over the move. Steve Bannon, former White House chief strategist during President Donald Trump’s first term and architect of the MAGA movement, told Newsweek in a text message, “There should never be a military base of a foreign power on the sacred soil of America.”
The administration’s announcement shocked the MAGA core base, who have applauded the president on his “America First” agenda. The agreement states an Idaho air base will “host a contingent of Qatari F-15s and pilots.”
The move comes months after Trump accepted a Qatari luxury jet, which drew criticism from both Democrats and Republicans, including from Loomer. It also comes as the U.S. is working with mediators in the region to put an end to the Israel Hamas war. Qatar has been a longtime ally of the U.S. and hosts key CENTCOM military operations at Al-Udeid Air Base near Doha. The Qatari Emiri Air Force facility will be hosted at the Mountain Home Air Force Base in Idaho, Hegseth said.
Loomer took issue with the administration’s move in a series of X posts, writing “no foreign country should have a military base on US soil. Especially Islamic countries.”
She added in another post that Hegseth, who she calls her friend, “should know how bad of an idea it is to allow Terror financing Qataris who fund HAMAS and the Muslim Brotherhood to have an AIR FORCE BASE ON US SOIL.”
Loomer added, “I don’t think I’ll be voting in 2026,” over the issue.
Conservative commentator Amy Mek wrote in an X post she is “in shock that Washington would approve a deal letting Qatar, Hamas’s #1 financier, open a Qatari Air Force facility on U.S. soil at Mountain Home Air Force Base in Idaho.”
She added, “It’s a shared delusion. We’re not building peace. We’re building a launchpad for the Islamic disaster.” There is no indication that Qatar will be using the base for anything other than training and cooperating with U.S., with Hegseth stating, the partnership will “enhance our combined training, increase lethality, interoperability.” READ MORE
