The Senate bastards ought to be focused upon Iran which has slaughtered our troops in Iraq, our Marines in Lebanon (long ago) etc. etc. I don’t care what Saudis do to Muslim Brotherhood scumbags.... I DO care immensely about what Iran has done to our own people.

” bill that would condemn Riyadh for the killing of a U.S. journalist “
Except the guy was not a journalist and not American. The Washington Times is becoming more and more like the WaPoo.

When virtue signaling meets geopolitical reality.
The US Congress sucks at it.
They should follow Trump’s lead here and do nothing.
Nothing.

How many times have we heard that the Senate are the “adults in the room” and cool the angry passions of the voters? Here is one case where the voters are much more mature and realistic than the showboats in the Senate. I don’t care if the Crown Prince ordered the murder. Saudi Arabia is way too important of a strategic ally to impose sanctions or any other public punishment.

I couldn’t agree more.
It looks like the senate thinks they have to step in so if they must, just slapping the wrist of the Saudi crown prince would be enough in my view.

I dont care if the Crown Prince ordered the murder. Agreed! I wouldn't care if he was in the library, with the bone saw and cut off the dude's nutz.
One muzzie killing another mooselimb is reason to cheer, get him a beer, on me.
Oh, mooselimbs only drink alcohol when out of the kingdom, and never anything as low class as beer...sorry.

Corker wants to save his Iran Deal by weakening POTUS’s position in the middle east. Corker wants to run out the clock on the lame duck. Etc. These GOPe scum are beneath contempt.

Corker wants to slam Saudi Arabia over killing a single Muslim Brotherhood member Corker is a POS and a traitor but here I see him offering more of a token bill than anything substantive, let alone aggressive.
Am I reading it wrong?

I find it comically exasperating. 19 Terrorists murder 3,000 people on 9/11, no big deal. Kill 1 journalist, who was debatably not a good guy, and the media goes bonkers.

Corker and his cohorts should lead a fact-finding expedition to The Kingdom to get to the truth of the matter. Like Leo Ryan’s little safari to Guyana.
To: jazusamo
Total nonsense.
I’d be hard pressed to find a measure that passed concerning the 100 actual journalists that have died in Mexico over the last 18 years.

That’s an excellent point, my FRiend.
Even the media seem to just give it lip service.
