Congress is forcing the Donald Trump administration to disclose Riyadh’s alleged role in whisking Saudi fugitives out of the United States — some of whom are wanted for charges as severe as manslaughter, rape and possession of child pornography.
The government funding compromise includes a provision that would require the FBI to declassify “any and all information” regarding Saudi efforts to extricate their citizens while they were “awaiting trial or sentencing for a criminal offense committed in the United States.”
