Senate Republicans and Democrats don’t agree on much these days, but Saudi Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman brought three of them together Sunday in rejecting his country’s explanation for Jamal Khashoggi’s death.

Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman Bob Corker told host Jake Tapper on CNN’s “State of the Union” that Saudi officials have “lost all credibility as it relates to explaining what has happened” when Khashoggi disappeared October 2, after entering the Middle Eastern power’s consulate in Istanbul, Turkey.
