Today Mattis echoed Bolton...'I cannot understand that language' what the fuck is this?

regarding the prince ordering murder of Khashoggi...

Mattis said this when asked if he heard the Khashoggi murder recording.

Our government has no translators?

This is some serious bullshit they are trying to get away with.

MSNBC just played an interview with him.....

They are just trying not to know what happened, and making stupid excuses. The translation exists. They've seen it. They don't want to listen. Bogus.

But I've been totally assured that this lame excuse will be torn to pieces by the media, who are doing an extraordinary job of holding the administration accountable. I fully expect to see Mattis, Bolton and Trump laughed out of all public spaces until they relent and do their jobs.

Or not.
