Someone put a timeline together. RE: Nikki Haley and disappearance/murder of reporter.

Since she is an ambassador to the U.N., do you think she might have access to information/private conversations that would have tipped her off to the leads that the Turkey government was following? Was it the final straw?

Afterall, Trump said she knew the foreign players.

7. Noticed something today's reporting.

Kusner/Trump/Bolton/Halli needed to know. Intell being reported out suggests this had to be in Trump's daily briefing.

My guess is,Shiff,Swalwell,Heck and others will be reporting out a vary serious charge against all of the a fore mention players.

Kushner is in hock to the Saudi's to the tune of hundred's of millions,Trump is in hock to the same for maybe more.

Why are they sitting around and watching, allowing the U.S. to crumble unless this conservative overreach is part of their agenda too?

We'd live in a just world if her work there were honored more in practice than in breach: American Rhetoric; Eleanor Roosevelt

That a piece of human crap like Nikki Haley was able to dishonor the office Ms. Roosevelt once held is among the many disgraces we've had to endure as our national honor is dragged through the mud by these awful people.

6. Our intelligence had warning of the planned murder,

and we had a duty (legal and institutional practice, not just decency) to warn Mr. Khashoggi.

He was concerned that he was in danger before this, but he gave no sign that he was warned before he walked into the Saudi embassy on October 2 to get his marriage license.

Nikki Haley's resignation letter was signed October 3 but only announced a week after Mr. Khashoggi's disappearance, on October 9.

Nothing I've read suggests a connection, many other reasons speculated, but it is likely that she knew what had happened, what was not done, and why.

VOX: Trump: "This took place in Turkey and to the best of our knowledge, Khashoggi is not a United States citizen,” he told reporters in the Oval Office on Thursday. “I don’t like stopping massive amounts of money that’s being poured into our country,” referring to his desire to sell $110 billion worth of weapons to Saudi Arabia, adding that “it would not be acceptable to me.”

Trump’s comments just made one thing extremely clear: He cares much more about getting American companies paid than defending human rights. What’s more, he doesn’t care that much about Khashoggi — who heavily criticized the crown prince in the Washington Post — because he is merely a US resident, not citizen.


Depraved. I am so upset about this evil and that poor man. The Saudi royal family would not have dared under any other president.
