From 'Quantico' to Qatar Airways? Even I'm Side-Eyeing This Air Force One Drama!

Wait There's a Plane Up for Grabs?!

Okay so I'm catching up on the news (between shoots of course!) and I hear about this whole kerfuffle with President Trump possibly getting a $400 million jet from Qatar. As they say in 'The Matrix' "Whoa." Seriously my reaction was basically a Bollywood slow motion head turn with added 'kyaaaaa?' echo effect. I mean a jet? That's like a *really* generous gift. Or is it? *Cue dramatic music*.

Political Espionage? Sounds Like a New Season of 'Citadel'!

Senator Susan Collins is throwing some serious shade talking about 'political espionage' and 'ethical and constitutional problems.' Honey that sounds like the plot of a *really* intense thriller – maybe something even I should star in! Though let’s be honest I’m usually the one *causing* the espionage not investigating it. But seriously the idea of scrubbing a plane for listening devices? That's intense. This isn't 'Fashion,' darling; this is national security!

Boeing's Got Competition (And Maybe Some Side Eye)

So apparently Boeing is taking their sweet time with the new Air Force One. I get Trump's frustration I *hate* waiting. But a gift jet? That's a bit...extra even for a diva like me. Though I must admit a palatial jet *does* sound tempting. Imagine the legroom! Think of the possibilities for a fabulous in flight yoga session! Nick would love it. But Collins is right accepting the gift seems controversial!

Senators Throwing Shade and Resolutions!

The Senate is *not* having it! We've got Senators calling it a 'very odd offer' and hoping the President rejects it. Sen. Chris Murphy calling it a bribe? Ouch! And then they're introducing resolutions to block arms sales? This is getting messier than my dressing room after a red carpet event. It's giving major 'Don't mess with me or my posse!' vibes.

A 'Palace in the Sky'? More Like a Pandora's Box!

A 'palace in the sky'? Sounds glamorous right? But Senator Schumer is putting holds on nominees calling it a 'grave national security threat.' Suddenly it's less 'champagne wishes and caviar dreams' and more 'international incident waiting to happen.' This gift sounds like a box of Jalebi. Sweet and tempting but so much drama waiting to happen after consumption!

A Jet for the Library? That's One Fancy Reading Room!

Okay so the plan is to give the jet to the Department of Defense and then to Trump's presidential library. I’m envisioning a library so extra it needs its own zip code. Forget quiet reading nooks; this library will have its own runway! But seriously Senator Collins is right to question the timeline. Will the retrofitting even be done before the term ends? This whole thing is more complicated than explaining Bollywood dance moves to someone who's never seen a Bollywood movie! Honestly just when you think you've seen it all politics throws you another curveball right? Now if you'll excuse me I have a script to read. At least *that* drama is fictional! *wink*
