Rep. Jennifer McClellan @mcclellan.house.gov

The Trump Administration just accepted a gifted luxury jet from Qatar. This violates the Emoluments Clause banning government officials from accepting gifts or money from foreign countries without consent of Congress. This is not only blatant corruption, but raises national security concerns.

If it violates the Emoluments Clause, can’t you do something more effective than post about it on social media?

It's a BRIBE. As in "Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors." One of the two things explicitly enumerated as grounds for impeachment of a president in the US constitution.

If only there were an institution to, say, check or balance the executive branch! Are you drafting articles of impeachment, since you're calling out the emoluments clause? Or something else...?

Vahl. Yes, that one. @calyka.bsky.social

You are one of the few people who CAN do something about this. Don't just post about it. Please get your peers together and punish him for his crimes.

Correct! So… what’s the stated repercussions for violating the act? I seem to remember someone else going to jail over some gold bars recently.
