Washington - Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (DN.Y.

Schumer said upstairs in the Senate: “Given the disturbing news that it might be a possible Air Force One funded by Katari, and reports that the Attorney General personally signed this obviously immoral agreement, I declare holdings for all the Justice Department political candidates until we get more answers,” Schumer said.

Minority Leader raised his list of questions about the Trump administration, saying he must get an answer before nominating the nominee.

“President Trump told the American people that it was a "free plane." Does this mean that the Qataris are delivering a plane on the date of the now established security measures? If so, who installed these security measures and how do we know that they were installed correctly? "Schumer asked: "What if, as President Trump promised, Qataris would pay for those highly sensitive installations, or would American taxpayers bear the costs?" ”

Schumer can’t stop these nominees with this strategy, but he can slow down their considerations. Given that the vast majority of Trump nominees have already held this way, it is unclear whether judicial candidates have been held for various other reasons.

The Justice Department’s Legal Counsel Office prepared a memorandum that declared the plane legal, Justice Department officials told NBC News on Monday. The Justice Department refused to issue the memorandum, which was approved by Attorney General Pam Bondi.

In his speech Tuesday, Schumer called on Bundy to testify before Congress to explain the absence of conflict and answer the conclusions of many questions related to the gift.

"The Attorney General must testify before the House and the Senate to explain why the private jet sent to Donald Trump does not violate the Emergency clause (requires Congressional approval) or any other moral law," Schumer said. "Unless the Attorney General explains her blatantly powerless decision and we have a complete and comprehensive answer to these and other issues, I will put all political nominees on the Justice Department."

Trump defended his decision to accept the plane’s gift before traveling to the Middle East on Monday, which he called “very good gesture.” He also said that this would eventually retire and would be handed over to his presidential library.

"Now I'm probably a stupid guy and say, 'Oh no, we don't want a free plane,'" he told reporters at the White House. “I will never refuse such a offer.”

However, some legal experts question how to allow the following gifts to be followed under the Emoluments Ralese. Democrats and even some Republicans believe the plane may be considered a conflict of interest.

"Flying agencies have become serious espionage and surveillance issues," Senator Ted Cruz, a close ally of the president, told CNBC on Tuesday.

Some Democrats also questioned Bondi's previous lobbying for the Qatar government's involvement.

Legislators and former intelligence officials pointed out that the huge espionage risks posed by foreign government gifts and long history of gifts proved to be beyond their view. For example, in 1945, Soviet children presented the U.S. ambassador to Moscow, a large wooden-carved American seal, and seven years later, the listening device inside the object was discovered.
