(3,729 posts)we've heard your speeches of outrage about the "betrayal" at the hands of the Saudis.
Here's your chance to do something about it. Sign on with the democrats demanding Trump's disclosure of his financial ties to the Saudis. That ought to expose things rather clearly.
Unless of course you are all partisan rhetoric and no substance.

I was scrolling through the comments on the NYTimes article reporting the explanation - and, to a person, they found the suggestion that he died as the result of a fistfight absolutely unbelievable. One of the commentors said,
Take a bow, Saudi Arabia.
That matches my experience in reading comments. I am dumbfounded.
I guess the only remaining hope is that the outcry is as loud and sustained as it was at his child separation policy, and he is forced to back down.

(9,350 posts)Seriously, when I saw the headline I thought this was going to be an Onion headline, or a headline from some other fake news website. I saw MSNBC and the link and at first thought wow this is real. Then I thought maybe the website is actually a fake news website. So, I clicked through to see if the site and the story were real. Spanone, you are right this is just unbelievable.

(6,535 posts)Maybe not even exactly on purpose; maybe he just said something offhand about how "somebody ought to get rid of" the troublesome journalist, who maybe was poking into certain monetary exchanges involving fuckface and family, and his Wahhabist friends heard such a comment and said "ok then." Well I wouldn't be surprised, anyway....

Jamal is now among The Dissapeared. As far as you or I are concerned, he may as well have been abducted by aliens...that's how gone he is.
Thanks BushCo.
He benefits financially from the Saudis.
