Democrats have been pouring gasoline on this fire to 'own' trump... looks like they are finally starting to wise up to the dangers that entails:


One of the men suspected of killing Jamal Khashoggi reportedly died in a car crash after returning to Saudi Arabia

"Let's be honest," Democrat Sen. Chris Murphy of Connecticut told Business Insider on Wednesday, "the Turks have leaked some pretty serious allegations through the press that they have not been willing to make public. There are not a lot of clean hands.

"We should acknowledge that most of what we know is through leaks from the Turkish government," he continued. "At some point, the Turks have to give us exactly what they have instead of leaking all of this to the press.

Chris Murphy is a right wing stooge, who knows the end game is to cover for SA, he is all aboard. He and everyone else in Congress will face the crimes they’re committing today.

Hillary is as neocon as one can get, she may say anything right now to obtain power, even if it counters the typical neocon doctrine. Her record over the years has clearly demonstrated her neocon status and her support for Saudi Arabia. This is not the first thing the Saudis have ever done.

Remember the uproar from Obama and Hillary when the Saudis sent troops into Bahrain? Yea, me either, because no uproar happened.

No one I know is defending SA. To be fair, the guy WAS a terrorist supporter, but many in the Saudi upper circles support terrorism both financially and ideologically. But that’s not why they killed him. They killed him because he spoke out against the crown, that’s the most evil part. Also, how they went about it was very evil.

Bipolar leftist policy. Amazing !!!
You have to remember that it was the left that was making excuses for Saddam. Running his opposition through wood chippers is apparently OK-not reacting immediately to unsubstantiated rumors from unnamed sources is somehow a problem today. The left in this nation won't be happy until we are in yet another ME war.

This guy was a green card holder, and paid taxes in the US. He deserves better from our government.

But the Saudis bought properties from Trump, so nothing will happen.

Now, what Saudi did is really no business of ours is it? I do think it should show how we will need to deal with Saudi for what they are and do to keep power.
