(19,126 posts)Trump was assured it wasn't them, and then without any concrete knowledge announced it.
Zero respect for Trump, in fact it looks like they wanted to make a fool out of him, which is really easy to do.

(3,335 posts)on Khashoggi to the Saudis. Information that he had received through his security clearance regarding Khashoggi. If Jared provided info to the Saudis on Khashoggi, he needs to be tried as an accessory to murder. Our intelligence information is not something Jared can use as he pleases.

(16,188 posts)their putting out a narrative. How much further would you want them to go? Should they say some unnamed guy got carried away while trying to get his wings as an interagator?

(14,844 posts)I could swear they have done this before. Screw something up, then behead the poor schmo standing closest to the incident, even if they had nothing really to do with it.
So they will publicly behead someone. For justice. Then it will all be over.
Move along citizens. Nothing to see here.

(33,643 posts)Now, it might be 15 random underlings, not the people who ACTUALLY took part, but ... the Saudi's would absolutely execute a bunch of people to put on a show for the world to cover up for their crimes.
