Senate Democrat calls on Biden to hold Saudi crown prince ‘accountable’ after immunity decision

Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) is urging President Biden to hold Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman “accountable” for the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi, criticizing the administration’s choice to grant immunity to the royal.

 

“The State Department’s decision to intervene in this case undermined the ability to hold the Crown Prince accountable for his crime,” Wyden tweeted Monday. “I call on @POTUS Biden to honor his commitment to hold MBS accountable and to reexamine our relationship with the Saudis.”

I hope they do. This is Biden's worst mistake. I think it signals the end of his plans for re-election, if he had any. The senate should send up a non veto bill to reverse his decision.
