Justice takes a backseat to political expediency it seems for the Senator.

Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) has now also joined the growing chorus of voices demanding justice. "The murder of Jamal Khashoggi as described by the Turkish press is an atrocity," she tweeted on Wednesday. "We must get to the bottom of this, and if the Saudis killed Mr. Khashoggi, those responsible must be held accountable."

People were quick to remind Collins that she didn't seem nearly as concerned about "those responsible being held accountable" when it recently came to confirming Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court. Collins was one of the last holdouts who eventually gave Kavanaugh her vote.

Fuck off, Collins. I hope a special place in hell is reserved for you and the rest of the GOP fuck wads.

Ok, lets call the FBI and this time we'll set the timer for 30 seconds for a full investigation. The IC has become such a joke, a sham, a pawn.

"I believe Koshoggi was murdered, I just don't believe it was Saudi Arabia that did it."

When I read the title, for some reason I though it was about the rapist.

Anyway, yeah everybody will see the hypocrisy.

She completely lost any tiny speck of respect I had for her with the Kav garbo. You fucked up, Sue.

I believe you got murdered. I won't do anything about this, but I believe something happened to you.

I just think we should be cautious about this. We don't want to ruin anyone's lives over something that happened a week ago.

Without reading the OP I'm gonna assume it's an investigation into where her backbone and integrity went.

Trump sat down with MBS and was assured that they would never restrict a woman's right to choose. That's all the assurance I need, why isn't that good enough for you Susan?

I know this is a really dark subject, but this made me lol. A+ post.

It isn't much of a joke. It's the current story from the administration while also nakedly fretting over losing money on weapon sales if they stop dealing with KSA.

edit: to be clear, I'm saying this because it's absurd that it's real spin. It's makes it even more darkly funny.

Those immediately responsible are going to be in a series of car accidents and window falls over the next few weeks. And those truly responsible have already bought and paid off the USA. So good luck.

I can't wait until she's voted out, kicked to the curb, completely forgotten as a side note in this shitstain of a presidency.

"The Saudis said they will punish the people responsible so I suppose that settles that"

....


"and the real atrocity is the partisanship trying to ruin a great 100 billion dollar deal"
