DONALD TRUMP'S LATEST position on the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi: It is the "worst cover-up in the history of cover-ups." This week on Intercepted: Trump offered analysis of the brutal Saudi murder by critiquing the "bad original concept" that was "carried out poorly." Trump's defense of Mohammed bin Salman and his callous remarks make for bad optics, but in reality, Trump is defending the long, bipartisan tradition of U.S. president's coddling the Saudi royals. Journalist Rula Jebreal, who conducted one of the last interviews with Khashoggi before he was executed, discusses possible motives for his murder and shares audio from the interview. Sam Husseini, a journalist who once asked a top Saudi official to defend the legitimacy of his regime, joins for a roundtable on the history of U.S. support for Saudi Arabia, the intentional amnesia of the politicians demanding action, and the slaughter in Yemen. Renowned playwright Naomi Wallace has a new one-person play about Yemen and Intercepted has adapted it into a radio drama performed by Ismail Khalidi.
