Hackers have become increasingly sophisticated in targeting bank accounts, sometimes stealing money without the account holder realizing it right away. This raises an unsettling concern among many: could someone actually drain your bank account while making it appear as though your balance remains untouched?As Bruce from Phoenix asks, "Is it true that hackers can wipe out your bank account but make it look like the money is still there?"The short answer is yes, though its rare and requires a high level of skill. Still, even the possibility is alarming, especially when you consider how easily people can fall victim to common tactics hackers use to gain access to accounts in the first place.Jointhe FREE "CyberGuy Report": Get my expert tech tips, critical security alerts and exclusive deals, plus instant access to my free"Ultimate Scam Survival Guide" when you sign up!Theres a long list of methods cybercriminals use to get into peoples financial accounts, and most of them dont involve "hacking" in the Hollywood sense. Instead, they rely on tricking you into handing over sensitive information. Here are some of the most common techniques.Fake banking apps and mobile trojans: Some apps are designed to look exactly like your banks official app, but theyre actually fakes. If you enter your login info, it goes straight to the scammer. Even more advanced aremobile banking trojans, which hide inside seemingly unrelated apps. Once installed, the trojan watches for when you open your real banking app and then quickly overlays a fake login screen. If you type in your credentials, the trojan grabs them and sends them off to the attacker.Phishing scams: Scammerssend emails or texts that appear to be from your bank, asking you to verify a transaction or log in to resolve an issue. These messages often include links to websites that look identical to your banks site but are actually fakes. The giveaway is often a small detail, like a misspelled URL. For example, "captial0ne.com" instead of "capitalone.com."Keyloggers:Keyloggers are a type of malware that silently records everything you type. If one gets onto your device, it can capture your banking username, password and anything else you type, all without you knowing.Man-in-the-middle attacks:These attacks happen when hackers intercept the data being transmitted between you and your banks website. This is especially risky if youre onpublic Wi-Fi. You may think you're logging in securely, but a hacker could be watching everything or even redirecting you to a fake version of your bank's site.SIM swapping:SIM swapping is where a scammer contacts your phone provider, pretends to be you and asks to transfer your number to a new SIM card. If successful, they receive your text messages, including any verification codes sent by your bank. This gives them access to your account, even if two-factor authentication is turned on.SNEAKY SCAMMERS DRAIN BANK ACCOUNT IN SINISTER PHONE PHISHING SCHEMEThis is where it gets unsettling. In rare cases, hackers can actually make it look like your bank balance hasnt changed, even though theyve already taken the money. How? By targeting the display layer of your banking app or web interface. If malware is installed on your device, it can manipulate what shows up on the screen. That means your balance might look normal, while your actual funds are long gone. This type of attack is extremely rare and usually requires access to a compromised or jailbroken device, but its technically possible and just sophisticated enough to delay you from realizing what happened.PREVENTING THIS INSIDIOUS EMAIL FORWARDING SCAM THAT WILL DRAIN YOUR BANK ACCOUNTThe good news? You dont need to be a cybersecurity expert to protect yourself. Just following these key steps can dramatically reduce your risk.1) Use official apps only: Cybercriminals will try to trick you with fake banking apps and mobile trojans that overlay fake login screens, so its critical to download banking apps exclusively from the Apple App Store or Google Play. Never install apps from links in emails or texts.2) Turn on two-factor authentication (2FA): SIM-swapping attacks can hijack your phone number and intercept SMS codes, so enable app-based2FA to block unauthorized logins even if hackers obtain your password.3) Get text or app alerts: Hackers can manipulate your accounts display to hide stolen funds, so set up real-time transaction alerts to expose unauthorized withdrawals immediately, especially for microtransactions used to test your account.4) Use strong, unique passwords: Phishing scams and keyloggers often harvest weak or reused credentials, so use a password manager to generate and store complex passwords. Get more details about mybest expert-reviewed password managers of 2025 here.5) Avoid clicking suspicious links and install strong antivirus software: Scammers impersonate banks with phishing emails/texts containing misspelled URLs (e.g., "captial0ne.com"), so always navigate directly to your banks official website or app instead of clicking embedded links. Strong antivirus software helps protect your devices from fake apps, keyloggers and other threats. The best way to safeguard yourself from malicious links that install malware, potentially accessing your private information, is to have antivirus software installed on all your devices. This protection can also alert you to phishing emails and ransomware scams, keeping your personal information and digital assets safe.Get my picks of the best 2025 antivirus protection winners for your Windows, Mac, Android and iOS devices.6) Check your accounts regularly: Dont just glance at your balance. Review recent transactions at least once a week to catch any suspicious activity.7) Avoid public Wi-Fi for banking: Hackers exploit unsecured networks to launch man-in-the-middle attacks and spoof banking sites, so use a VPN to encrypt your connection if you must bank on public Wi-Fi. VPNs will protect you from those who want to track and identify your potential location and the websites that you visit.For the best VPN software, see my expert review of the best VPNs for browsing the web privately on yourWindows, Mac, Android and iOS devices.8) Use a personal data removal service: Data brokers sell your contact details and personal information, which hackers can use for targeted phishing attacks or SIM swap scams. These services automatically remove your data from broker databases, reducing the risk of social engineering attempts that could compromise your bank account.While no service can guarantee the complete removal of your data from the internet, a data removal service is really a smart choice.They arent cheap, and neither is your privacy.These services do all the work for you by actively monitoring and systematically erasing your personal information from hundreds of websites.Its what gives me peace of mind and has proven to be the most effective way to erase your personal data from the internet.By limiting the information available, you reduce the risk of scammers cross-referencing data from breaches with information they might find on the dark web, making it harder for them to target you.Check out my top picks for data removal services here.GOT A BANK TRANSFER ALERT TEXT? IT MIGHT BE A SCAM. HERE'S WHAT TO DOHackers dont need to break into your banks system; they just need to trick you. Whether its phishing, malware or SIM swaps, the goal is always the same: get access to your login and verification codes. Fortunately, you can make it much harder for them by using secure habits and staying alert.

"Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star Kyle Richards' daughter, Sophia Umansky, is sharing why she decided to speak publicly about her use of the weight-loss drug Mounjaro."If you're honest about things, people can't even judge you or hate on you because you said it yourself," Umansky told People. "You're the one that told everyone, you're owning it, so anything anyone else has to say, it's like, 'OK, well, I told you that. I'm owning it.' I think it's fine. And I always say I'm on Mounjaro. I obviously talk to a doctor."Mounjaro is an FDA-approved prescription drug which is commonly prescribed to people diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes. More recently, it has become a popular weight-loss drug, as it reduces appetite.'REAL HOUSEWIVES' STAR KYLE RICHARDS SAYS PHYSICAL CHANGES AFTER GIVING UP ALCOHOL ARE 'INCENTIVE' TO BE SOBERThe reality star's daughter sparked backlash when she shared in a TikTok video that she experienced hair loss as a side effect from taking the drug, with many commenting she shouldn't be on the drug to begin with."People who are telling me that I don't need to be on it, they don't know what they're talking about. They're not doctors," she said of the backlash. "And I think everyone needs to calm down and live their own lives. And honesty will get you far in life and lying is not fun. It's not good."She went on to say that her mom has always been "very supportive of whatever decisions we make as her daughters," and was definitely "trying to veer me away from getting on this medication." However, after speaking with her doctors, Richards "saw that that's the path I wanted to take, she was very supportive.""And yeah, I think a lot of people are saying that I have body dysmorphia and all this, and I'm like, 'Actually, no. I think I'm cute both ways. I think I was cute before and I'm cute now.' There's nothing wrong with trying to feel a little bit more confident, a little bit cuter," she added. "People get worked on all the time, they get filler, they get Botox, they do all different kinds of things. So if I want to feel a little cuter, why not?"LIKE WHAT YOURE READING?

The family has shared their ups and downs throughout their time on the program, most recently including Richards and her estranged husband, Mauricio Umanksy's decision to separate after 27 years of marriage."Ive always said I didnt believe in the reality show curse because my perception was that a lot of people come into this with fractures in their marriage, and then they are looking at this as a way out. That certainly was not my story," Richards told The Hollywood Reporter in January 2025.She went on to tell the outlet that she doesn't think she and Mauricio would be in this situation had their lives gone down a different path, saying, "I definitely do believe that money and fame and all that is not great for a marriage."CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTERMauricio and Richards also share daughters Alexia, 28, and Portia, 17, and Mauricio was stepfather to Richards' daughter Farah, whom she shares with her first husband, Guraish Aldjufrie.

Kelly Osbourne says shes received more criticism over her weight than anything else shes ever done, including drugs and alcohol.On Saturday, the reality TV star participated in a panel at the Inaugural Beacher Vitality Happy & Healthy Summit at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel in Los Angeles. During her appearance, the daughter of rocker Ozzy Osbourne and TV personality Sharon Osbourne opened up about the scrutiny she's endured over the years due to her physical appearance."We live in a fat-phobic world," the 40-year-old told the attendees, as quoted by People magazine.KELLY OSBOURNE TURNS 40 WITH DRAMATIC TRANSFORMATION AFTER WEIGHT, ADDICTION BATTLESBeing body-shamed even overshadowed some of her past struggles, Osbourne insisted."I have been a drug addict, an alcoholic Ive been a complete mess, disrespectful to people, horrible but I got more s--- for being fat than I did for anything else. Its insane."Osbourne described how, when she was heavier, she often received backhanded comments."People [would] say, Youre so pretty. Why dont you just lose a little bit of weight, and then youll be the total package?" she said.According to the outlet, the "Dancing with the Stars" alum "tried everything" to shed the pounds. However, it wasnt until Osbourne addressed her mental health that she started to see results."I tried probably everything that there is out there, whether it be surgery, medication, diet and exercise," Osbourne explained. "I got my mind where I needed it to be, and everything started to fall into place."CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTER"Its not just as simple as change your diet and move," she said. "You have to change your brain. You have to come to peace and acceptance about where you are in your life before you can start."In 2020, Osbourne told the Hollywood Raw podcast that her gastric sleeve surgery was "the best thing I have ever done." Still, she stressed it wasnt an overnight solution."The kind of surgery I had if you dont work out, and you dont eat right, you gain weight," said Osbourne at the time. "All it does is move you in the right direction. So, anyone whos thinking of doing something like this, really think about that.""I had to do a year of stand-alone therapy to prepare myself for the surgery before I even had it," she continued. "What people dont realize is, it cuts out this hormone that if you have addiction issues, it stops your craving, and it makes you not emotionally eat, which is a huge problem for me. It doesnt solve all your problems. Its not a quick fix."Back in 2023, Osbourne told Fox News Digital that she spent the nine months of her pregnancy in hiding with her father. She and Slipknot musician Sid Wilson welcomed their son Sidney in late 2022."I literally sat with my dad for nine months in a house, and I had the best pregnancy ever," she said at the time. "We had a lot of fun. We really did. But there was no way I was going to go out and about and have people see me and shame me because I was so big."LIKE WHAT YOURE READING? CLICK HERE FOR MORE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSOsbourne said that while she was eager for motherhood, she was terrified of facing public scrutiny over her growing baby bump."I have been body-shamed since I was 14, 15 by the media," Osbourne explained. "I was known as Ozzys chubby daughter. Theyd always comment about my body and the way I looked. And I just wanted to be myself. I didnt want to be the prettiest girl in the room, but I was penalized because I wasnt. Its one of those things where I am totally fine with the way that I look and am happy with myself and how I am as a person, but other people arent. And thats on them. Its not on me.""But people need to realize that we are responsible for our words," she said. "Just because youre behind a keyboard doesnt make it OK. And I do think there should be more laws and rules against what people can do to another person [online]. Its horrible."WATCH: OZZY OSBOURNE'S SON JACK OSBOURNE SAYS ROCK STAR'S VOICE IS STILL SPOT ON DESPITE HIS HEALTH STRUGGLES"Sometimes, the comments section of my social media, you just cant look at it because just as there are many mean ones, there are nice ones, and people say really lovely things, but your mind doesnt focus on that. You focus on the bad ones that you have. It can derail you for the entire day, week or month."Osbourne said she tries not to let any comments about her weight and speculation about whether shes had any work done get to her. But some days are better than others."I wont lie and say there arent some days when Im just like, Holy f---, that is mean," she said.In her third trimester,she was diagnosed with gestational diabetes, People magazine reported. According to the outlet, she cut down on processed sugar to deal with the symptoms of weight gain, fatigue and ankle swelling."I hid for nine months when I was pregnant because I didnt want what they did to Jessica Simpson when she was pregnant [to happen to me]," said Osbourne about the star being mercilessly body-shamed."I think it was disgusting," said Osbourne. "I still think its disgusting. Its horrible, absolutely horrible. She was pregnant. What are you supposed to look like when youre pregnant?""Rihanna changed the pregnancy style game in such a magical way," said Osbourne about the singers daring maternity looks during her pregnancies."I think what she did was incredible, but not every girl is Rihanna," Osbourne continued. "I definitely felt the pressure [to lose weight after giving birth]. And I 100% caved into losing the baby weight. Im happy I lost it, but it was because I didnt want to be picked on."

Brian Fitzpatrick, R-Pa.As part of that "strategy," Kenyatta said, "one of the first things they go after is history.""We know that before, they used to take the books, put them in a little pile and burn them. Now they try to delete stuff off of our federal websites. But the effect is the same. They want us to forget what we are made of," he went on, in a clip circulated by the left-leaning outlet "The Keystone."OBAMA SLAMS PRO-TRUMP MEN AT PHILADELPHIA RALLY WHILE SPRINGSTEEN WARNS GOP NOMINEE IS AN AMERICAN TYRANTSince taking office, Trump has overseen agencies that have altered or removed content relating to DEI, climate change and gender ideology."Donald Trump is not the first bully or would-be authoritarian that Americans have taken on.

The Department of Homeland Security issued subpoenas to the government of California on Monday seeking records related to alleged disbursements of federal funds to illegal immigrants.ICE's Homeland Security Investigations [HSI] office in Los Angeles filed the subpoenas this week, targeting the state's Cash Assistance Program for Immigrants [CAPI].According to the program's website, CAPI is intended to provide monthly cash benefits to aged, blind, and disabled non-citizens who are ineligible for federal Supplemental Security Income, but the White House claims it provides benefits to illegal immigrants who cannot access social security benefits.DHS Sec. Kristi Noem criticized California politicians in a statement, saying, "Radical left politicians in California prioritize illegal aliens over our own citizens, including by giving illegal aliens access to cash benefits. The Trump Administration is working together to identify abuse and exploitation of public benefits and make sure those in this country illegally are not receiving federal benefits or other financial incentives to stay illegally."She added, "If you are an illegal immigrant, you should leave now. The gravy train is over. While this subpoena focuses only on Los Angeles County it is just the beginning."TRUMP GOES TOE-TO-TOE WITH SANCTUARY CITIES OVER DEPORTATION AS ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION CRACKDOWN SET TO BEGINHSI's subpoenas seeks records including the name and date of birth of CAPI applicants dating back to 2021, as well as copies of applications, the immigration status of those applicants and other documents relating to the program.Gov. Gavin Newsom's office did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Fox News Digital.ICE ARRESTS MORE THAN 530 MIGRANTS IN ONE DAY AMID TRUMP'S CRACKDOWNThe investigation comes more than a month after a separate study found that California is funneling billions of federal taxpayer dollars into paying for illegal immigrants. The Economic Policy Innovation Center [EPIC] report drew a line between Californias Medicaid provider taxes and what, on paper, appears to be nearly $4 billion in state funding going toward illegal immigrants healthcare and other initiatives.But that funding is actually coming from the federal government, according to EPIC, via reimbursements to California."The state of California, colluding with insurance companies who cover Medicaid beneficiaries, has created one of the most outrageous ones yet, a money laundering scheme that results in California obtaining more than $19 billion in federal money without any state contribution over the period from April 2023 through December 2026," EPIC's report says.The paper continued that those funds were "used to implement major expansions in the Medicaid program to fund illegal immigrants and long-term care (LTC) for the wealthy."A spokesperson for California's Department of Healthcare Services pushed back on EPIC's report, arguing it is "misleading" and urging people to visit a link on their website "for accurate information on this topic."Fox News' Elizabeth Elkind contributed to this report.

"I have not been able to sleep. I am stuck in Oct. 7, even though its been 580 days. I used to enjoy Mothers Day so much. We would all go to the city to a special restaurant, and I insisted the kids write me letters on this day. I have not been able to celebrate anything since this nightmare began," she added.ISRAELI MINISTER SAYS GAZA WILL BE ENTIRELY DESTROYED, PALESTINIANS FORCED INTO OTHER COUNTRIESRaised in Tenaflym Alexander moved to Israel at 18 to volunteer for military service in the IDFs Golani Brigade.

Yes, I am happy for the Alexander family. They will finally have their son Edan back. I thank President Trump and Steve Witkoff for this progress," she added. "But President Trump please don't stop. This is only the first step. Do whatever is necessary to bring every last one home. The other 58 hostages have no time left. They are in hell. The living could be killed any day. The deceased their bodies could be lost forever. They must all come home."Fox News Digitals Emma Colton and Stepheny Price contributed to this report.

This story discusses suicide. If you or someone you know is having thoughts of suicide, please contact the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline at 988 or 1-800-273-TALK (8255).The wife of a Nebraska man who is suspected of killing his entire family of four in a murder-suicide pleaded for support for her husband's mental health online just days before she and her two sons were murdered, according to a report.Jeremy Koch, 42, stabbed and killed his wife Bailey, 41, and sons Hudson, 18, and Asher, 16, before killing himself in their rural Dawson County home, Nebraska State Patrol confirmed Saturday.Hudson was scheduled to graduate from high school on Saturday, just hours after the family was found dead, according to News Channel Nebraska.ARIZONA PASTOR FOUND DEAD WITH HANDS PINNED TO WALL IN HOMICIDE AT HOMEThe outlet reported on a now-removed GoFundMe page Bailey began earlier this month called "Jeremys Battle: Mental Health Support Needed.""May is Mental Health Awareness Month, so here we are... making you aware," Bailey reportedly wrote.She said Jeremy first attempted suicide in 2009 and had tried to take his life multiple times.REALTOR SHOT DEAD BY MERCEDES SUSPECT WITH CRIMINAL HISTORY: POLICELast year, according to Bailey, Jeremy's depression reached a fever pitch."Jeremy cannot get out of bed unless forced," she wrote. "By not eating or drinking, Jeremy is slowly completing suicide."She reportedly wrote that the family's income, which came from a local landscaping business Jeremy owned, had dried up.In March, Bailey said she woke up to Jeremy standing over her with a knife but talked him down and convinced him to get inpatient mental health care. That was the fourth time Jeremy had been hospitalized for his mental health struggles, according to the report.She said a round of electroconvulsive therapy did not help her husband."It didnt work.

"Our hearts are with everyone impacted."

President Donald Trump declared Monday that the U.S. "will no longer tolerate profiteering and price gouging from Big Pharma" as he signed an executive order implementing what his administration is calling "most favored nations drug pricing.""The principle is simple whatever the lowest price paid for a drug in other developed countries, that is the price that Americans will pay," Trump said at the White House. "Some prescription drug and pharmaceutical prices will be reduced almost immediately by 50 to 80 to 90%."Trump said that "starting today, the United States will no longer subsidize the healthcare of foreign countries, which is what we were doing. We're subsidizing others healthcare, the countries where they paid a small fraction of what for the same drug that what we pay many, many times more for and will no longer tolerate profiteering and price gouging from Big Pharma.""Even though the United States is home to only 4% of the world's population, pharmaceutical companies make more than two thirds of their profits in America. So think of that with 4% of the population, the pharmaceutical companies make most of their money. Most of their profits from America. That's not a good thing," Trump continued. TRUMP SAYS HE WILL SLASH DRUG PRICES WITH EXECUTIVE ORDER"I think, by the way, pharmaceutical I have great respect for these companies and for the people that run them. I really do, and I think they did one of the greatest jobs in history for their company, convincing people for many years that this was a fair system. Nobody really understood why, but I figured it out. For years, pharmaceutical and drug companies have said that research and development costs were what they are, and for no reason whatsoever, they had to be borne by America alone," Trump said. "Not anymore, they don't."The White House said that the executive order "directs the U.S. Trade Representative and Secretary of Commerce to take action to ensure foreign countries are not engaged in practices that purposefully and unfairly undercut market prices and drive price hikes in the United States."The Order instructs the Administration to communicate price targets to pharmaceutical manufacturers to establish that America, the largest purchaser and funder of prescription drugs in the world, gets the best deal," the White House said."The Secretary of Health and Human Services will establish a mechanism through which American patients can buy their drugs directly from manufacturers who sell to Americans at a Most-Favored-Nation price, bypassing middlemen," the White House added. "If drug manufacturers fail to offer most-favored-nation pricing, the Order directs the Secretary of Health and Human Services to: (1) propose rules that impose most-favored-nation pricing; and (2) take other aggressive measures to significantly reduce the cost of prescription drugs to the American consumer and end anticompetitive practices."Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said alongside Trump, "I never thought that this would happen in my lifetime.""I have a couple of kids who are Democrats, are big Bernie Sanders fans. And when I told them that this was going to happen, they had tears in their eyes. Because they thought, this is never going to happen," he said. "And we finally have a president who is willing to stand up for the American people."MAHA CAUCUS MEMBER PLEDGES HEARINGS INTO CORRUPTION OF A PUBLIC HEALTH SECTOR CAPTURED BY BIG PHARMATrump said earlier this morning that drug prices would be "cut by 59%."The Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America trade group opposes the order, saying, "This Foreign First Pricing scheme is a bad deal for American patients.""Importing foreign prices will cut billions of dollars from Medicare with no guarantee that it helps patients or improves their access to medicines," the groups president, Stephen Ubl, said in a statement provided to Fox News Digital. "It will jeopardize the hundreds of billions our member companies are planning to invest in America, making us more reliant on China for innovative medicines.""To lower costs for Americans, we need to address the real reasons U.S. patients are paying more for their medicines. We are the only country in the world that lets PBMs, insurers and hospitals take 50% of every dollar spent on medicines," Ubl also said. "In fact, hospital markups in 340B and the rebates and fees paid to middlemen in the U.S. often exceed the total cost of medicines oversees. Giving more of this money to patients will lower their medicine costs and reduce the gap with European prices."Fox News Digitals Greg Wehner contributed to this report.

And if you take a look at that, compared to the new plane of the equivalent, you know, stature at the time, it's not even the same ballgame.""When I first came in, I signed an order to get (the new Air Force One fleet) built," he continued. "I took it over from the Obama administration, they had originally agreed. I got the price down much lower. And then, when the election didn't exactly work out the way that it should have, a lot of work was not done on the plane because a lot of people didn't know they made change orders. That was so stupid, so ridiculous. And it ended up being a total mess, a real mess."Reports spread Sunday morning that the Trump administration was expected to accept a $400 million Boeing 747-8 jumbo jet from Qatar's royal family. ABC News reported that Trump would use the jet until the end of his term, when it would be given to his presidential library.QATAR OFFERS TRUMP JUMBO JET TO SERVE AS AIR FORCE ONETrump confirmed Sunday evening on Truth Social that the Department of Defense would receive the 747 as a gift, while railing against Democrats as "world class losers" for criticizing the gift. "So the fact that the Defense Department is getting a GIFT, FREE OF CHARGE, of a 747 aircraft to replace the 40 year old Air Force One, temporarily, in a very public and transparent transaction, so bothers the Crooked Democrats that they insist we pay, TOP DOLLAR, for the plane," Trump wrote. "Anybody can do that! The Dems are World Class Losers!!! MAGA."He continued in the press conference Monday that when he returned to office in January, his administration informed him construction on two new Air Force Ones was "way behind" on the schedule for completion.TRUMP TEASES 'VERY, VERY BIG ANNOUNCEMENT' AHEAD OF MIDDLE EAST TRIP, CARNEY SAYS HE'S 'ON EDGE OF MY SEAT'"If we can get a 747 as a contribution to our Defense Department to use during a couple of years while they're building the other ones. I think that was a very nice gesture. Now, I could be a stupid person to say, 'Oh, no, we don't want a free plane.' We give free things, we'll take one, two, and it helps us out. Because again, we're talking about we have a 40-year-old aircraft. The money we spend, the maintenance we spend on those planes to keep them tippy-top is astronomical," he added, calling the gift a "great gesture from Qatar."White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt also brushed off concern over the Qatari royal family donating a Boeing jumbo jet to the U.S. Department of Defense, arguing on Monday there will be no quid pro quo arrangement and that the donation is under legal review to ensure full compliance with the law."The Qatari Government has graciously offered to donate a plane to the Department of Defense," Leavitt said on "Fox & Friends" Monday morning. "The legal details of that are still being worked out. But, of course, any donation to this government is always done in full compliance with the law, and we commit ourselves to the utmost transparency, and we will continue to do that."TRUMP STAFFERS LOAD BOXES OF ITEMS SEIZED BY FBI IN 2022 MAR-A-LAGO RAID ONTO AIR FORCE ONEWhen asked if the administration was worried that accepting the gift could lead to a quid pro quo situation where Qatar expects something in return, Leavitt shot down such a narrative."Absolutely not because they know President Trump, and they know he only works with the interests of the American public in mind," Leavitt responded.Rep. Ritchie Torres, D-N.Y., wrote to the Government Accountability Office on Sunday, calling for an ethics investigation into the gift, claiming it would be the single most expensive gift ever received by a U.S. president."I am writing to express alarm over reports that President Donald Trump is poised to accept a luxury aircraft a Boeing 747-8 from the government of Qatar," Torres wrote. "The plane, so opulent it has been described as a palace in the sky, is set to be made available to President Trump for official use as Air Force One and then for private use once he leaves office.""This flying grift is merely the latest chapter in a tawdry tale of presidential profiteering unprecedented in American history," Torres added.Presidents have for decades circumvented the Emoluments Clause which prohibits federal elected officials from accepting gifts from foreign governments or monarchs by classifying gifts they receive while in office as gifts to the office of the president. Those gifts are then cataloged and stored as part of their presidential libraries after leaving office.While presidents maintain some level of access to the items in their libraries, they do not own them directly and must purchase them from the federal government in order to secure private ownership.Leavitt said in a comment to Fox Digital Monday morning that all gifts received by a foreign government would be above board and in compliance with the law.HOUSE DEMOCRAT CALLS FOR 'IMMEDIATE' ETHICS PROBE OF QATARI PLANE GIFT TO TRUMP"Any gift given by a foreign government is always accepted in full compliance with all applicable laws," Leavitt said. "President Trump's Administration is committed to full transparency."Trump is headed to the Middle East and is expected to meet with leaders in Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates. A Trump administration official confirmed to Fox News Digital that the plane will not be presented to the president nor accepted by Trump during his trip abroad.The current Air Force One fleet includes two aging planes, both of which are more than 30 years old and have been eyed for replacement since at least the Obama administration.Trump railed against a government deal with Boeing to build a new fleet of Air Force Ones ahead of his first administration, posting on social media in December 2016 that the "costs are out of control, more than $4 billion" to build the two aircraft.Trump in 2018 awarded Boeing a $3.9 billion fixed-price agreement to manufacture two new jets. The construction of the jets, however, is not expected to be completed until 2029."Boeing is proud to build the next generation of Air Force One, providing American Presidents with a flying White House at outstanding value to taxpayers," Boeing said in 2018 after ironing out a deal with Trump for the creation of the new fleet. "President Trump negotiated a good deal on behalf of the American people.""The possible transfer of an aircraft for temporary use as Air Force One is currently under consideration between Qatar's Ministry of Defense and the U.S. Department of Defense, but the matter remains under review by the respective legal departments, and no decision has been made," Qatari embassy official Ali Al-Ansari told ABC News Sunday.When not in office as president, Trump has traveled in his private Boeing 757 jet, dubbed Trump Force One. That jet is famously emblazoned with Trump's last name and was frequently seen in the backdrop of campaign rallies.
