    yeah, I really do not get this story either, but it really does look like a double-suicide and not foul play. So odd.

    How much cash did they walk out of there with?

    How much $ would it take for you to say "nothing to see here guys mohammed bone saw is a real sweetheart"
    ??
    SEO SEM marketers et al get while the getting is good. Rob some houses in malibu set up a charity for khasoggi and contact aramco letting them know about your plans. I will drive you in my yaris to their hq near the dome. Unfortunately I have to work on monday though.

    Im inclined to create a wix site or similar to "criticize mohammed bone saw.net" but clearly the big money is on PR for bone saw.

    How much do you cost?

    Beyond the obvious question ("why TF does anyone ask the other idiot son anything?"), the trump message here is "why should we not have a relationship with a foreign government that tortures, kills and dismembers United States journalists?"

    Trump just released a statement saying the administration will continue the marriage in it's present form regardless if MBS ordered the killing or not. Will try to find a good link and post.

    There is no hint of any accountability whatsoever for the murder of Khashoggi. ZERO! The message to the world is: If Trump likes you, you can literally get away with murder.

    I repeat: We have a complete piece of trash for president. I am ashamed for the vile human being that occupies our highest office. It is a disgrace to our nation.

    He was murdered because MBS told him to shut up and stop writing but he refused.

    Message is clear. If you are called an enemy of your state (by horrible regime I do business with), kill away. The US is a ok with that. (In fact, perhaps the US should adopt that policy herself).

    hahaha, is this the real whitehouse and not some parody site? Even after 2 years, it never ceases to amaze me the sheer amount of times I have no other comment than "What a ****ing embarrassment" I think this is a good sign, right? That I can still figure out what's embarrassing and what's not, even after all this idiocy?

    What a ****ing embarrassment.

    America is first in line for serving the Trump family's interests. That much is clear. That, I can tell you.

    Gee mario, if only there was a group of important people that could do something about this... perhaps you could join it and call it the United States Senate.

    ...I think, in one of those rare and enlightened moments of clarity of his, I'm sure the Donald would say (or tweet):

    "...elections have consequences..."

    ...or, as some of our more conservative countrymen might offer (in another whataboutism nod to their democratic counterparts): ..."to the victor goes the spoils...
