Craig Caplan @CraigCaplan - Juneteenth 2026: President Trump unveiled the new Air Force One aircraft, gifted to the U.S. by the Qatari government, at Joint Base Andrews in Maryland. He first spoke publicly about accepting the airplane from the Qatari royal family at the White House in May 2025, calling it "a great gesture from Qatar."

Craig Caplan @CraigCaplan - House Intel Top Dem Himes; “If the reports of Bill Pulte’s arrival at ODNI are true, they demonstrate why he should never spend a minute as Director of National Intelligence, a role he is legally not qualified to perform. I am particularly concerned by reporting that he may undertake a sweeping firing of intelligence professionals, following on major cuts already undertaken last year. Mr. Pulte should expect the Intelligence Committee to closely scrutinize any actions he takes in what should be a very short period in this role, to include any personnel decisions or declassifications.”
