Schumer moves to block Trump DOJ nominees as he seeks answers on Qatari jet to Defense Department
Fox News
The White House is pushing back Tuesday after Sen. Chuck Schumer announced a "hold on all DOJ political nominees" over questions he wants answered about a jumbo jet gift from Qatar.
"So, 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," he added. Greg Norman is a reporter at Fox News Digital.
A White House spokesperson told Fox News Digital in response that "Senator Schumer and his anti-law-and-order party are prioritizing politics over critical DOJ appointments, obstructing President Trump’s Make Safe Again agenda," and that "Cryin’ Chuck must end the antics, stop Senate stonewalling, and prioritize the safety and civil rights of Americans."
