Manafort was convicted of eight felony counts in Virginia. Crossing border illegally = a misdemeanor. Seeking asylum = not a crime.
(Also, his children are in their 30s.)
(Also, not sure why I'm even bothering ...)

It's the story of family fleeing danger in their home country, crossing borders illegally on foot to eventually take refuge in the United States.
Loads of Americans watch and celebrate this story every year.
It happened again last night ... it's #TheSoundOfMusic.

The Khashoggi incident will be blown wide open...again. This time, will @POTUS make his move?
2. @LindseyGrahamSC gave a STRONG statement after a secret briefing by the C_A about the #Khashoggi incident. Watch this whole video (7 minutes), not just the portions being given by others. Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman (MBS) has been put on notice.

3. Graham pulls no punches in addressing MBS and his abusive, chaotic, dangerous, criminal behavior. This is going to resonate widely throughout the Senate and I believe it will be addressed on the Senate floor in the coming days. Some think this issue is not an important one.

Trump and @IvankaTrump met with murderer Saudi Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman on the sidelines of a leaders meeting at the G20 summit.

They knew.

They knew he ordered that a Washington Post Journalist be dismembered with a saw while he was still alive
The world will NEVER forget that @IvankaTrump and Kushner have a continuing relationship with a brutal murderer

Never let them back into society.

#Khashoggi was dismembered will still alive. Trump refuses to listen to the gruesome audio

These people are monsters
Saudi crown prince bragged that Jared Kushner gave him CIA intelligence about other Saudis saying 'here are your enemies' days before 'corruption crackdown' which led to torture & death

Saudis gave @IvankaTrump 100 million for her "women's power iniative"

Blood on their hands

*Deep breaths*

It’s easy to get lost in the grief and outrage over Trump siding Saudi regime that thinks nothing of butchering peaceful journalists in consulates.

But hope is not all lost. Congress must act, and the American people can still help.

Here’s a thread #Khashoggi
1. Trump has basically chosen to ignore the CIA’s “high confidence” conclusion that Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman ordered #Khashoggi’s murder.

As @ThePlumLineGS and @paulwaldman1 note, Dem oversight can help flesh out the CIA’s conclusions

wapo.st/2qXD8oE
2) the Former CIA chief, @JohnBrennan has said that Congress should move to declassify the CIA intelligence on the Saudis, Mohammed bin Salman, and the #Khashoggi murder.

Congress must move in that direction.

Turkey has concluded that Jamal #Khashoggi, a prominent journalist from Saudi Arabia, was killed in the Saudi consulate in Istanbul earlier this week by a 15-member Saudi team sent “specifically for the murder" washingtonpost.com/world/middle_e…
"#Khashoggi visited the consulate to obtain documents related to his upcoming wedding.

The killing, if confirmed, would mark a stunning escalation of Saudi Arabia’s effort to silence dissent, rounding up clerics, business execs & women’s rights advocates"
"The initial assessment of the Turkish police is that Mr. #Khashoggi has been killed at the consulate of Saudi Arabia in Istanbul. We believe that the murder was premeditated and the body was subsequently moved out of the consulate." reuters.com/article/us-sau…
