Description

U.S. and Saudi Arabia relations are being tested after the disappearance of journalist Jamal Khashoggi. Co-hosts Mike Isikoff and Dan Klaidman examine the close relationship that Saudi Arabia has with politics in the nation’s capital and the interesting lobbying tactics the Saudis used when they recruited U.S. military veterans to pressure Congress to get rid of a new law.
