I sent a letter yesterday with more than a dozen of my colleagues to President Trump regarding the recent disappearance of Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi.

This bipartisan letter has triggered an investigation and Global Magnitsky sanctions determination after Khashoggi went missing last Tuesday after entering a Saudi Consulate in Istanbul.https://www.gardner.senate.gov/newsroom/press-releases/gardner-signs-letter-triggering-global-magnitsky-investigation-into-disappearance-of-jamal-khashoggi …

So you sent a letter. What’s your follow up plan when Trump doesn’t do a damn thing because he’s in bed with the Saudis? And Trump would have journalists killed and dismembered if he thought he could get away with it.

He loves doing the minimum possible to keep up his appearances.

Are you alarmed by the fact that the US does not have an ambassador to Turkey or Saudi Arabia at the moment? Are you alarmed that Jared Kushner appears to be leading US interaction with Saudi Arabia? If not, why? If yes, what will you do?

Did your letter include a request that he stop referring to the press as enemies of the people and perpetuating a culture of discrediting, disbelieving and promoting violence against the press? K thanks

The journalist was murdered, and your response was to send a letter to the man that refers to journalists as “the enemy of the people”? By not standing up for basic democratic principles, you are complicit in all of this. How about doing something besides posturing?

Imagine how much you could actually accomplish if only you represented the common good all of the time. Start by listening to those you serve.

Give it a break, the US arms industry makes a ton off the Saudi’s and none of the GOP Congress will do anything to thwart the flow of campaign contributions from them.

Trump and Cushner are in debt to Saudi, Congress watched and did nothing. Trump's behavior and relationship with Saudi has emboldened Saudi to think they could get by with murder of a journalist without consequences.
