The most chillingly accurate description of this event that I have seen
Good Dog

GLASHEEN: ... ... ... we are building out the infrastructure right now

THOMPSON: What does that mean?

He was ambushed, humiliated and berated for not being grateful enough.

Prince Bone Saw bin 9/11 came to the White House, for the first time since he ordered the murder of Jamal Khashoggi.

He was revered.
