The Saudis sent a 15-man hit squad, including a forensic expert and a BONE SAW, to do what exactly, @realDonaldTrump? Just another case of you defending the indefensible for your own self-interest.
Trump’s NY hotel saw a 13% boost in Q1 2018 because of Saudi Prince MBS' visit to NYC in March. And in 2015, Trump bragged that Saudis "buy apartments from me. They spend $40M, $50M...hundreds of millions. Am I supposed to dislike them?”

Dec 2017: A construction company owned by the governments of Saudi Arabia & South Korea plans to build a Trump-branded resort in Indonesia despite Trump's vow that Trump Org would not make any deals with foreign government entities while he's in office.
Between Nov 2016 & Feb 2017, Trump’s DC hotel received $270,000 from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The payment came through a lobbying firm working against the 9/11 bill, which would allow victims of terrorist attacks to sue foreign governments.

AUG 2016: The emissary, Nader [now cooperating w/ Mueller], told Don Jr that Saudi & UAE crown princes MBS & MBZ were eager to help elect Trump. Zamal, who worked for Deripaska, proposed a covert online manipulation campaign to aide their efforts.
#Maddow
Mueller’s team has questioned several witnesses about MILLIONS of dollars in donations to Trump’s inauguration committee, including questions about donors with connections to Russia, SAUDI ARABIA, the UAE, and Qatar.

As Mike Pompeo landed in Riyadh today, $100 million in Saudi cash landed in American accounts.

“Do this outside. You will put me in trouble,” Saudi consul Mohammad al-Otaibi told Saudi agents as they decapitated and dismembered Jamal Khashoggi.

“If you want to live when you come back to Arabia, shut up,” one of the Saudi agents replied.
#Maddow nyti.ms/2QYd7km
US intelligence officials are increasingly convinced that Saudi Crown Prince MBS – who has complete control over Saudi security services – is culpable in the murder of Jamal Khashoggi. An appraisal that poses challenges to Trump and Jared Kushner.
#Maddow nyti.ms/2AgijdQ
The very same month [Oct 2017] Jared Kushner divulged to Crown Prince MBS the names of Saudis disloyal to him – intel straight from the PDB – Jared's family business landed a $57M loan from Saudi-linked SoftBank, whose CEO 'has deep ties' to MBS.
#Maddow
The Saudis blame their pre-planned scapegoat Deputy Chief of Intelligence General Assiri for the "rogue operation"/"rendition gone wrong." Interestingly, Assiri has links to Trump pals Elliott Broidy and George Nader.

Trump's former NSA accused him of treasonous conduct –– “aiding and abetting” Russia's attack on the 2020 election –– and the story was blown away by the never-ending firehose of craziness and disinformation generated by Trump and his crew.

Senior Pentagon leadership are quarantining after exposure to Vice Commandant of the US Coast Guard, Adm. Charles Ray, who tested COVID+ Monday:
-Gen. Mark Milley
-CoS of the USAF, Charles Brown
-Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Gilday
-Chief of Space Operations, Gen. Raymond.
Head of U.S. Cyber Command, Gen. Paul Nakasone, is also among those quarantined.

Up to 14 officials are believed to have been potentially exposed to coronavirus after meetings last week with Adm. Wray, who tested positive.
Last Sunday, General Milley and many of the Pentagon’s senior leadership attended a White House reception for “Gold Star” families of fallen troops. Trump and Melania were at that event.nytimes.com/live/2020/10/0…

Feds are seizing masks and other #COVID19 supplies from hospitals without a word.

“Federal officials sweep in without warning to expropriate our supplies... Are they stockpiling it? Distributing it? Will we get any of it back? We can’t get any answers.”latimes.com/politics/story…
“Trump and other White House officials, including Jared Kushner, claim that the federal government is using a 'data-driven approach' to procure [STEAL] medical supplies from hospitals and direct them where they are most needed [TO HELP TRUMP'S REELECTION].”
!! Chairs of two key House panels are demanding answers about Jared Kushner's role “in the acquisition, distribution of, or federally directed sale of any form of PPE or medical supplies and equipment to be used for the diagnosis or treatment of COVID-19.”nbcnews.com/politics/white…

It took 70 days from the initial notification on Jan 3 for Trump to treat coronavirus not as a hoax, but as a lethal force poised to kill thousands. But by then, critical time had been squandered and opportunities to mitigate the pandemic were lost.washingtonpost.com/national-secur…
Because of Trump and his admin's failures over the first 70 days of the coronavirus crisis, the US will likely go down as the country that was supposedly best prepared to fight a pandemic but ended up sustaining heavier casualties than any other nation.
For 70 days, Trump lied to the public about coronavirus.

By the time he proclaimed himself a wartime president and coronavirus the enemy, the US was on track to see more of its people die than in the wars of Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan and Iraq combined.

BREAKING: Trump has fired inspector general for the intelligence community, Michael Atkinson, who opposed then-DNI Maguire’s decision to withhold the whistleblower complaint from Congress, which sparked the impeachment inquiry.
NEW: Trump has fired intelligence community inspector general Michael Atkinson, who was first to sound the alarm to Congress last September about an “urgent” complaint he’d received from an intelligence official re Trump’s communications with Ukraine.politico.com/news/2020/04/0…
Schiff: Trump’s dead of night decision to fire ICIG Michael Atkinson is another blatant attempt to gut the independence of the Intelligence Community and retaliate against those who dare to expose presidential wrongdoing.
