So we further destroyed our economy over a non American reporter that we don’t know all the details about.
Genius.

The left is so delusional on foreign policy they can only lead us to disaster.

People don’t care enough about foreign policy. You can see the world situation coming unglued because of these idiots.

Smooth handling by a minion of the most diplomatically experienced President of our lifetime. Not.

Khashoggi was writing fake news about the prince. He ended up sliced and diced.

So why does the Saudi Prince block Elon Musk at Twitter?

That was the wrong time to bring up a subject like that.
You wonder if Sullivan sabotaged his own diplomacy just so the Biden Admin could say the Saudis refuse to help us lower the price of oil. “We really, really tried!
Now we have no choice but to allow gas to go over $145. a barrel, or beyond.”

Even if Biden’s handlers didn’t have a bug up their asses about the death of the Muslim Brotherhood-linked Khashoggi, the Saudis still wouldn’t have opened the spigots due to their (justifiable) anger about the resurrection of the Iran nuke deal. But turning Iran into a nuclear power is near the top of the administration’s agenda. It appears non-negotiable.

As well he should.

And yes, I understand some of the human rights issues vis-a-vis the Saudis.

I also know that Kashoggi was an activist associate of the Muslim Brotherhood, writing as a supposed “jorunalist” but all the time promoting anti-Saudi themes of the Muslim Brotherhood.

And as much as I think poltiical assassinations are not the moral way for statecraft, I understand that the Saudis see the Muslim Brotherhood as an existential threat.

We “arrested” and detained terrorists at GITMA for years for much the same reason. Much more “humane” than the fate of Kashoggi, but “I get it”.

It’s none of our business.

I don’t see them obsessing over Putin’s political enemies getting the same treatment.............

Sullivan brought up Khashoggi...

Think about that. You’re mission is to get the Saudi’s to pump more oil to control prices in the US. And our envoy thinks to himself, “I know! I’ll bring up the most contentious issue between our 2 countries, that’ll help me get what we need!”

Brilliant. These guys couldn’t pour a bodily fluid out of a boot if the instructions were written on the sole.

The left thinks they can use the same tactics they use on western countries.

Our WOKE ‘intelligence’ folks are fools.

Man up Jake Sullivan - there’s mothers whose kids were killed or maimed at the in Christmas parade in Waukesha who are doing better than you and that buffoon Kashoggi...

Sullivan needs to find a safe place and curl up into a little ball until he gets over Khashoggi’s death.

"President Biden has refused to speak to MBS and has limited his direct conversations to the ailing and elderly King Salman."

Well, sure. They have a lot in common.
