Analysis: Despite Trump's efforts, Senators won't let Khashoggi killing go
Senators seeking answers attended a"classified" briefing Monday on Capitol Hill that provided"zero" new information, according to Sen. Chris Murphy . The White House missed the deadline to submit a report last month, and there is no expectation that the White House will issue one at all.
“The interesting thing is you have [the Trump] administration, which is deeply skeptical of the competence and positive intentions of the U.S. government and deeply sympathetic to the competence and intentions of infinitely less competent and well-intentioned foreign governments and while it’s not the U.S.
Murphy told us. “I think there is general consensus that we need to move forward on sending Saudia Arabia a message on the consequences that have to come with targeting a U.S. resident with murder and dismemberment.” he didn't think that Trump had violated the law “definitively.”
