Jamal Khashoggi’s family may have publicly forgiven the eight men Saudi Arabia had convicted in the journalist’s 2018 assassination, but that has done little to take Congress’ eye off Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman’s alleged role in the murder.
Democrats are doubling down on efforts to force the Donald Trump administration to publicly release a report on every Saudi official complicit in the murder, which could include the crown prince himself. A United Nations report found “credible evidence” that Prince Mohammed was involved in the journalist’s murder. The CIA has reportedly reached a similar assessment.
