Preview For This Week's Top 10 Conservative Idiots

Despite President Donald Trump’s insistence to the contrary, the CIA determined that Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman was “directly involved” in the assassination of journalist Jamal Khashoggi, said Rhode Island Sen. Jack Reed, the ranking Democrat on the Senate Armed Services Committee.

Trump has denied a report in The Washington Post that the CIA concluded that Mohammed ordered Khashoggi’s assassination, saying instead that intelligence officials just “have feelings about certain things.” The CIA’s assessment on the death of Khashoggi, who was killed inside the Saudi Consulate in Istanbul last month, has not been released to the public.

Asked Friday on CNN if the president was lying, Reed responded, “Yes.”

He added, “The CIA concluded that the crown prince of Saudi Arabia was directly involved in the assassination of Khashoggi. They did it, as has been reported to the press, with high confidence, which is the highest level of accuracy that they will vouch for. It’s based on facts. It’s based on analysis. The notion that they didn’t reach a conclusion is just unsubstantiated. The CIA has made that clear.”

Really? Trump lies about something? I'm shocked I tell you! Just once I want to see the media report on when Trump tells the truth about something, now that would be newsworthy!
