One thing that makes this #Khashoggi story difficult to assess when it comes to who's responsible is that there are different factions within Saudi Arabia constantly jockeying for power. It's not one monolithic thing.
Bin Salman heads only one faction.
There are SEVERAL ways Khashoggi could end up meeting his demise at the hands of Saudis not working on the orders of MbS.

Here's the great thing: JW is eventually going to get those Benghazi emails. Don't know about getting Clinton & Co. to testify under oath, but all JW really needs is those emails.
The emails from Clinton's server on Benghazi are going to show:
1) they knew it was a AQ terrorist attack from the start
2) they decided to leave those people in Benghazi hanging out there on their own.
Since plenty of 'missing' Hillary Clinton emails have turned up [remember the 700,000 Clinton emails on the Weiner laptop? I do! *gigglesnort!*] you can bet they are covered in JW's FOIA lawsuit.
Reminder: Comey managed to BULLSHIT everybody that 'all' the emails had been reviewed using this cool new technique to sort through 700,000 emails in just a few days. Then this came out:
The fact that Comey claimed his crack FBI team - with Peter Sztrok on it! managed to review 700,000 emails in a marathan 12 hour span was clearly bullshit.
And now it's been proven to be bullshit.
BREAKING: A federal court ordered a hearing for tomorrow (October 12th) on JW\u2019s request for testimony under oath from Hillary Clinton, Cheryl Mills, & other State Department officials about Clinton email searches in JW\u2019s FOIA lawsuit about Benghazi. (1/6)https://t.co/Ij0MLUQyM4

Oh.
My.
God.
Read this thread, people. You can literally sense their panic, fear and hatred bleeding through your screen.
The Lefties are desperately virtue-signaling each other right now about Kanye West.
"So we all agree, right? Kanye's days of being any kind of celebrity or influencer in the black community ended long ago, right? RIGHT?! I MEAN THE DUDE IS CRAZY WE CAN ALL SEE THIS OK?!"
So here's the talking point on MSNBC right now: That somehow a CRAZY MENTALLY DISTURBED BLACK MAN was allowed into the White House and TRUMP EXPLOITED HIS MENTAL ILLNESS.

Looks like @MSNBC wants to get in on the action framing Kanye West as a crazy person by calling his meeting with President Trump an "assault on our White House" "bonkers" "crazy".

Thread in progress that makes an excellent point: Far Left Progressives thought they had ALREADY WON. And I mean already won *permanently*.
After Obama won in 2008 there were numerous articles/books about the New Permanent Democratic
James Carville among others were crowing "The DemuhKRATS are gunna beah in POWAH faw FAWTY YEAHS!"
Obama easily beating Romney in 2012 only entrenched this notion.
Republican gains in the House in 2010/12/14, hey just minor setbacks, soon to be corrected!
The arrogant triumphalism on the part of the Progressives was insufferable in 2008 and by 2012 it was even worse.
Republicans had a dying party, I was told. Democratic Presidents & an activist judiciary would keep that GOP house in line until 'common sense' prevailed.
This is why 2 years later, Progressives are still throwing tantrums and refusing to accept what happened.
They truly believed what they were told, that it was all over and they had won.
You're watching people go through an existential crisis.
Control of the Executive branch and control of the Judicial branch were key essentials to enacting and then enforcing a large part of the Progressive agenda for America.
And they'd won, you see. The redneck bitter clingers out there couldn't stop the coming transformation.

18) When you think you\u2019re in a liberal paradise and you wake up to an army of conservatives running the government, its very easy for them to think \u201cSuddenly, Nazis... EVERYWHERE.\u201d They\u2019ve fooled themselves into thinking conservatives had died out, that there were hardly any left

"I lied about my basic beliefs in order to keep a prestigious job. Now that it will be zero-cost to me, I have a few things to say."
We know that elite institutions like the one Flier was in (partial) charge of rely on irrelevant status markers like private school education, whiteness, legacy, and ability to charm an old white guy at an interview.
Harvard's discriminatory policies are becoming increasingly well known, across the political spectrum (see, e.g., the recent lawsuit on discrimination against East Asian applications.)
It's refreshing to hear a senior administrator admits to personally opposing policies that attempt to remedy these basic flaws. These are flaws that harm his institution's ability to do cutting-edge research and to serve the public.
Harvard is being eclipsed by institutions that have different ideas about how to run a 21st Century institution. Stanford, for one; the UC system; the "public Ivys".
As a dean of a major academic institution, I could not have said this. But I will now. Requiring such statements in applications for appointments and promotions is an affront to academic freedom, and diminishes the true value of diversity, equity of inclusion by trivializing it. https://t.co/NfcI5VLODi
