Today's announced sanctions against Saudi nationals for their involvement in Khashoggi's murder is appropriate, but should in no way mean this incident is over. We still need to get to the bottom of what truly transpired and which Saudi leaders from junior civil servants to the highest echelons of Saudi government were aware or orchestrated this murder. I'll continue to push this Administration to see through the results of an independent investigation into Khashoggi's murder and send a clear message that we will not tolerate attacks on journalists and the institution of a free press. Congressman Deutchpenned an op-edon October 16 titled The World is Watching Our Response to Khashoggi's Murder. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
