US Military Accepting $130M Private Donation

The unusual move could violate a law prohibiting federal agencies from spending money in excess of congressional appropriations or from accepting voluntary services. The latter is the key issue for the obvious conflict of interest.

Trump said the donor is a friend of his. I'm sure the donor does not supply technology to the defense projects.

What will Trump do next? Accept a plane from a foreign government, with no expectation of getting anything in return? Oh, wait...

We're truly a banana republic now.

Yes indeed. Basically, longstanding laws and norms are now meaningless as Orange Jesus has the SCOTUS majority in his pocket now. I dunno why Roberts wants that to be his legacy, but that's the path he chose this second time around. What's frightening is that a vast majority of the MAGA sheeple (and I know many and love them, just not their politics) think all of this is perfectly fine.
