Top White House Official Involved in Saudi Sanctions Resigns
quote:
WASHINGTON — A top White House official responsible for American policy toward Saudi Arabia resigned on Friday evening, a move that may suggest fractures inside the Trump administration over the response to the brutal killing of the dissident Jamal Khashoggi.
The official, Kirsten Fontenrose, had pushed for tough measures against the Saudi government, and had been in Riyadh to discuss a raft of sanctions that the American government imposed in recent days against those identified as responsible for the killing, according to two people familiar with the conversations. Specifically, she advocated that Saud al-Qahtani, a top adviser to Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, be added to the list, and he ultimately was.

Soooo... This article starts off trying to make the situation with this woman resigning appear badly for the Trump admin, then goes on to say she got everything she wanted?
Not only that, for all those claiming that we "didn't do enough / anything" to the Saudis because of this killing need to read the above. What more is needed over one foreign man's death in a foreign country's embassy?
