Sens. Lindsey Graham, R–S.C., and Bob Corker, R-Tenn., left a closed-door briefing with the CIA with harsh words for the administration. Corker called for the Trump administration to publicly condemn Saudi Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman for his involvement in the murder of Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi in October in Turkey. The details of the CIA briefing will not be made public, but Graham pointed to a ‘smoking saw’ as evidence enough to cement the prince’s guilt. Watch for more of their comments following the briefing.
