Crown prince of saudi arabia? obviously hes done it before with vladimir putin over the russian intelligence. but in this case whats the harm? >> well, i think its terrible, terrible commentary about our moral standing in the world and the way this is going to be looked at. and the presidents, i think, disingenuous if not dishonest false choice here, if we condemn mbs, if we sanction saudi, somehow theyre going to turn against us. theyre not going to do that. we have far more leverage over them ...

Moral standing in the world and the way this is going to be looked at and the presidents, i think, again, disingenuous if not dishonest, false choice here. if we condemn mbs, if we sanction saudi, somehow theyre going to turn against us. theyre not going to do that. we have far more leverage over them than they do us, and theyre going to continue to be an opponent of iran in any event just because theyre kind of -- the sunni lead and the iranians are the shia lead so thats going to go on regardl...

After he hung up the phone with those military members. and it really got interesting only more from there. two big things i do want to point out, pam, is one, the president said he shut down parts of the border. the u.s./mexico border, two days ago. now, he didnt offer any evidence. he didnt elaborate on what it was he was saying he shut down or which parts of the border. of course, we cover this white house, and the white house has not made any announcements about this and neither has the depa...

Killed 3,000 americans on 9/11, president bush assured us the saudis are our friends. we have a crown prince, senator lindsay graham and others saying i participate interestly unstable. like in your -- patently unstable. youre just a couple of quarters from the quarter st. james, they dont have place in the party of saudy didnt we remove this guy as crown prince and have? one else as crown prince? >> yes, you know, mbs as hes known was sold to us as a great reformer. the truth is, that would app...

15 saudis killed. 3,000 americans on 9/11. we now have a crown prince, senator lindsey graham and others say is patently unstable. like in your own royal house, you are just a couple of miles from mcwhorter st. james, they dont have a strict progenitor so why cant we at least put pressure pressure? >> yes, you know, mbs as hes known was sold to us as a great reformer. the truth is, that would appear not to be the case at all. one of the things he does appear to have done is to assume the very un...

Didnt. several of trumps republican colleagues on capitol hill slammed his defense of the saudi regime. >> i am astounded that the type of response that was put out by the white house. we have a crown prince that i believe directed the killing of a journalist, and i just at the language that was used, it was as if they were writing a press release for saudi arabia not for the united states. and it was unnecessarily provocative in the way that he did it. >> heres what i believe, saudi arabia need...

Prince had direct responsibility for ordering this death. the president is using different language saying they didnt draw a final conclusion. thats a standard higher than we typically would expect from the cia. he may be correct in saying they didnt m cocome up with a final concluding but an assessment that points blame to mbs, mo ma m -- mohammed bin salman. we have heard from bob corker, for example, while there isnt a smoking gun, all the evidence points there. this disagreement between the ...

Lets put that aside. the cia said they saw it both ways. that doesnt make sense. thats not true. the cia didnt say maybe he did. maybe he didnt. they said with high confidence they believe that the crown prince was in know about this murder. >> this is the guy who said there were very fine people on both sides in charlottesville. he like to do a both sides attempt when things go wrong. this is the first time an american president, that i can remember, has done both sides kr the -- with the cia. ...

If we stop supporting you, you would fall tomorrow. he said it himself and yet classic liar he is, he does a complete u turn to say well lose our relations. hes thanking them for oil price falls on twitter. he said its just not about oil or arms sales, its also about geo political. trump is obsessed with iran. he probably wants a war with iran and he needs mbs on board with that. they are as hawkish and reckless as he is. >> its caused the worlds greatest humanitarian crisis right now. starvatio...

Keep murdering because theres no repercussions for doing so. that doesnt make me as an american citizen feel safer. it makes me feel more insecure. >> jackie, it makes governments wonder if they can push the envelope around the world. >> it gives them carte blanche to lie to the presidents face. lets not forget vladimir putin, kim jong-un and now mbs have all said, you know, they didnt do whatever the intelligence agencies said they absolutely did and the president has taken the despots word ove...
