REPORTER: Has Qatar asked for anything in exchange for that $400 million luxury jumbo jet, & how can the American people be so sure that they will not in the future?

MAGA thinks Dems upset about the Trump admin suspending the writ of habeas corpus (which is essentially declaring martial law) is a self-own since Lincoln did it during the Civil War. Yes, it was designed for things like a Civil War. Not for judicial decisions you disagree with.
