"While millions of Americans are facing the loss of health care and troops are going unpaid during the shutdown, Trump’s administration is busy giving a foreign monarchy a military base on U.S. soil. The 'Qatari Emiri Air Force Facility' will be located at Mountain Home Air Base in Idaho, hosting Qatari F-15s and pilots."

Some of the snark now circulating on social media:
"Qatar is an authoritarian semi-constitutional monarchy. The emir holds significant power over the government & legislation, with political parties banned & limited political rights 4 citizens. The legal system is SHARIA law, Islamic values. They're gonna fit right in to Idaho."
~ Elayne Boosier
"I remember MAGA absolutely melting down over a Chinese air balloon going over the US like WW3 was about to start any day because of Biden. Now Qatari jets flying over our country is apparently America First. I’m sure this has nothing to do with Qatar giving Trump a jet or doing a business deal with him to build a $5.5 billion golf resort in that country."
