Key Senate leaders emerged from a briefing Tuesday with CIA Director Gina Haspel convinced that Saudi Arabia’s crown prince was complicit in the murder of Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi and that Congress must respond by penalizing the kingdom.

“He murdered him, no question in my mind,” Sen. Bob Corker, R-Tenn., chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said of Mohammed bin Salman’s role in the killing. “The crown prince directed the murder and was kept apprised of the situation all the way through.”

Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., who had demanded the Haspel briefing, called the crown prince a "wrecking ball" and suggested the evidence against the prince, known by his initials MBS, was overwhelming.

"I think he’s complicit to the highest level possible,” Graham said.

"There’s not a smoking gun. There’s a smoking saw," Graham added, a reference to reports that the Saudi operatives who killed Khashoggi used a bone saw to dismember him after the murder. Khashoggi, a U.S. resident, was killed inside a Saudi consulate in Istanbul on Oct. 2 by a team of Saudi operatives.

Trump will ignore them and give MBS a big hug the next time he sees him. He and Jared need the Saudi $ for the Trump businesses.

Sen. Graham is the canary in the coal mine. Trump will be done soon.

Too little, too late for the GOP though.

They're probably comparing notes on methods.

Meaning he's going to let this slide because it's a Republican administration or that he's pointed out the hypocrisy of his fellow GOP Senators? I hope it's the latter.

Saudi's have been killing off their "deplorable" citizens forever.

Why is anyone shocked about this one?

What's your point? That it's ok to kill people who criticize you. Because that's a characteristic of dictatorships and repressive regimes, not the United States of America.

My point is I don't understand the sudden uproar when this country has been happy to do business with the Saudi's forever. And you STILL don't want to cut your personal oil consumption. How is that?

Because we produce more oil than the Saudis now. US oil imports are down and exports are up. MBS is not Saudi. He’s just the temporary thug in charge.
