Anyone with eyes could tell you the ex-Qatari plane lacks the same countermeasures, as I explained in this video for The Independent

@highbrow_nobrow @Independent Boeing are taking years to build the new AF1, but the Qatari one got fully converted in a few months. Let’s call this one what it is, Grift Force 1

They’re not exactly building them. The Air Force bought two finished 747 airliners that a Russian airline had bought before going bankrupt and never got to use, and contracted with Boeing to have those two planes stripped down to studs and rebuilt as VC-25B VIP transports. There had been a contract for Boeing to build two new ones from the ground up, but Trump ordered that canceled because he thought it was too expensive. Had he done nothing, the new ones would have been ready years ago, but instead, Boeing has had to figure out how to turn an airliner into a flying mobile command center that is hardened against the effects of nuclear weapons and all sorts of other dangers. That’s actually far more difficult than building the new Air Force One aircraft to spec from the ground up.

@Independent No midair refueling on the Qatar Bribe Jet, no POTUS should ever fly on a fuel limited jet, it's foundational security on an Air Force One

@Independent The new ones aren’t going to have air to air refueling either because Boeing is converting a pair of unused airliners instead of building from the ground up.

@Independent Which is nuts according to what the Joint Chiefs and Secret Service has said for decades now, that the POTUS needs to stay in the air in case of war/disasters

@Independent Every second of your life revolves around a person . The person is president Trump . You have so much hate & animosity you track every word & thing he does & says

@Independent …or it is literally my job?

@svdate @Independent 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸THE GOAT🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

@Independent So, are you about to get a subpoena?

@Independent not that I know of but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@Independent Leave it to a leftist idiot reporter to capitalize on somebody’s post to disclose as much sensitive information as possible with as much detail as possible to the enemy. You’re a jackass @AndrewFeinberg

@Independent Seems it’s the same as with everything else. If it isn’t reported on - it isn’t an issue. Just like how COVID goes away if you simply stop counting cases. POTUS is an imbecile

@Independent Told by presidential security Not to post and this POS posts them. Report anything u can spin negatively. So sick of our bs news

@Independent Who wants to bet converting the two unsold commercial 747s into military grade VC-25B aircraft (based on the Boeing 747-8) not only cost more time but also cost more money? Everything Trump touches turns to shit.

@Independent Why President trusts an airplane from another country 🫨👁️👁️ needs a complete security overhaul investigation asap @POTUS

@Independent FAKE NEWS! This “Bridge” AF1 has cutting edge countermeasures.

@Independent But it looks nice. That's all trump cares about.

@Independent Your reporting ALWAYS and I mean ALWAYS have to end with negative remarks about Trump doesn't it...another bullshit biased reporter that lacks objectivity thereby ruining an otherwise good story. Pity.

@Independent Nobody cares, jew🤣🖕

@Independent Why isn't Blanche sending subpoenas to Boeing staff who did the "retro-fit" on the Golden Plane? Why subpoena Journalists? Boeing can explain what they did & didn't do to the Plane that Trump is taking home with him when he leaves in 2 years.

@Independent I don't know why we don't just use the anti gravity technology crafts. Enough hiding and over spending on crap we are past.. rockets to go to the moon and Mars. Big ass planes. We all know we have tech far better now.

@Independent So it’s not that the journalists had been a part of a plan to assassinate the president and had been contacted by those implicated in the plan? Nice cover story But bullshit

@Independent It’s not a secret. Any buffoon can google or use AI for the exact differences between the Bridge plane and the new ones currently being built.

@Independent The Trump Admin is terrified that they'll have to justify what they spent $400m of taxpayer money on, if not on security measures for the freaking president's plane. What was higher on the priority list?

@Independent Great reporting. Thanks. One last thing - Trump's "deal" wound up leaving out the midair refueling that the legacy AF1s have. Apologists say it's not needed. We'll find out if/when there's a war or some other global situation where the POTUS is safer staying in the air.

@AmoneyResists @Independent

@Independent But it’s very luxurious and tacky, which are very important to the nut case in office.

@gtconway3d @Independent

@Independent Stop advertising to our enemies about countermeasures You must hate America Stop spying for our enemies

@Independent Got a bunch of fucking geniuses in this administration. Or maybe Trump said add the security functions later. He decided he just wanted to show off his new plane.

@Independent #TrumPedo’s ego costs American taxpayers billions of dollars.

@gtconway3d @Independent I’m glad they are mixing it up so our enemies don’t know which plane he’s in.

@Independent I noticed those when Biden was here in Seattle.

@Independent Once again the American people are being lied to & defrauded. This “gift” from Qatar that was given to T had to have millions to upgrade security. DOGE found no real fraud/waste. There has been more fraud & waste by Trump. He should have never been able to accept this plane

@Independent I think this is the stupidest shit I’ve ever seen these reporters reporting on technological protection mechanisms that are on our presidents plane. Just tell everyone the stupidest shit they should all be arrested. This should not be allowed.

@Independent Israel gave them one of their intelligence reports that should tell you everything you need to know. They were provoking Trump to attack Iran again.

@Independent Why would you allow a foreign country to build the plane our president travels on… Seems unwise, at least.

@Independent You are a dishonest person and a liar

@Independent Watch it have something planted between the metal frame. Not just a box or whatever. Sanded down to look like a regular beam idk I don’t trust anyone with my president
