And of course even if the Saudi team intended all along to murder Khashoggi they might have said "You're coming back with us" to make the operation go easier. Did Saudi source address this?

BURIED LEDE DEPT: Accompanying video also ducks the bone saw question, seems to accept-or at least doesn't dispute-Saudi source's 'botched kidnapping' conclusion. (Says there was another source but unclear what that source provided.) https://t.co/F7xBY0uhen

Alternative, non-triangulatory take: One side wants to close the asylum loopholes that lead to this crisis, whether it's humanitarian or more-than-humanitarian. [Trump's side] One side wants to preserve loopholes [Dems]. Trump is right. https://t.co/txCuvQU0Tx

Unless I missed something this account doesn't address the bone saw question stressed by WaPo ed page https://t.co/0f3KxonGPV — i.e. why bring the saw if it was just a "botched" kidnapping? https://t.co/bokr38icgA

Why isn't it like the Dems position on greater income equality — they just want more of it, and don't want to think about how much is enough, where they'd draw the line? https://t.co/zvB6xVOCXr

I can discern a purpose! The purpose is to be so potentially embarrassing that Republicans will welcome the coming Kushner/Mulvaney bipartisan immigration sellout … Like the realtor who initially shows you crap houses to soften you up. #abparanoid https://t.co/yXTqSJExWV

A lot of reporters know the subjects they cover. The Economist's special problem was their reliance on hit-and-miss stringers, IIRC. Maybe they've changed. https://t.co/Fj2VyzqVGZ

OK. How about:
So Pelosi & Schumer will demand a disastrous amnesty as the price of ending the crisis they've perpetuated, and the Kushnerized WH will add a disastrous guestworker increase before agreeing. It's all coming into focus …. https://t.co/f6VU6VRifg

The default rule in my experience is that if you're familiar with the subject of an Economist article you soon realize they don't know what they're talking about (even if they write with great authority and erudition). https://t.co/w1ORgiV5v9

DON'T FORGET OLD SCHOOL ILLEGALS: Note that the numbers who sneak across the old fashioned way–not claiming asylum and being released, just evading capture–may be as high as the rising number of catch-&-release cases. About 500,000. Border wall will definitely help with *them*. https://t.co/ENnU05zQaD
