Schumer also called on Attorney General Pam Bondi to testify before Congress and answer a number of questions related to the potential gift.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said Tuesday he is placing a hold on all Trump Justice Department nominees as he seeks answers on the administration’s plan to accept a luxury jet from Qatar to be used as Air Force One.

"In light of the deeply troubling news of a possible Qatari-funded Air Force One, and the reports that the Attorney General personally signed off on this clearly unethical deal, I am announcing a hold on all DOJ political nominees, until we get more answers,” Schumer said on the Senate floor.

The minority leader presented a list of questions and demands he says the Trump administration must respond to before he lifts his hold on nominees.

    SO this ass is finally doing something… not when he was tearing down democracy… not when he was killing the economy and destroying our relationships with the world… not when he’s taking away people’s rights or shipping people off to countries for concentration camps… but boy, talk planes and Chuck is all over that.

    No more strongly worded letters for Mr Tough Guy. Watch out.
