Given the speed of events in Saudi Arabia this year a stunning report surfaces stating that King Salman is anticipated to hand over ruling authority to Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman next week.

According to The Daily Mail King Salman will retain the title of guardian of the holy mosques but otherwise hand over all ruling authority to the crown prince.

The young prince Salman is the 2nd most important person alive today, second only to DJT. They appear to be buddies IMO. Together they are draining the swamp not only in SA but also in the USA. There are many links between the recently arrested Saudi elites and people in our government...always follow the money. A lot of it is going to lead to John McCain. He was paid to support ISIS in Syria.

I hope it does and I hope it’s fast. I don’t want him to miss being publically humiliated just because he’s dead.

BTW: I think it would be a good idea to make Mecca and Medina open cities under the control of Jordan.

The new Saudi rulers don’t need the headache.

They King is Custodian of the two Holy Cities; I don’t think that is going to change.

One of the first foreign leaders that Trump met with after his inauguration was Mohammed bin Salman. Salman came straight to the White House on a special trip. Very telling.

Then on Trump's very first foreign trip, he went direct to Saudi Arabia to meet with Salman, where he was given the red carpet treatment. Again, very telling.

Trump and Salman are obviously very close buddies. Than you have the "purge" from several weeks ago and Trump with his mysterious tweets showing his support for the Saudi Arabia purge.

Thanks for the summary. I can live with and support ALL of that. I hope and PRAY that by the time President Trump is done returning America to Her former self, NONE of us are going to know what hit us! :)

“The King is Custodian of the two Holy Cities”

There is talk of splitting the functions, with Salman passing the throne to his son, while retaining the custodian role.

It could mark a new separation between the State and Religion in Saudi Arabia.

Not sure about oil price, there are just so many variables that can alter the value of oil.

But I’m certain that Trump let them know that if they did not clean up their mess he would open the fracking spigots and bankrupt them.

Trump has total leverage in his dealings with SA and they know it.

Their people are going to be a lot freer and happier and it is Trump’s doing! SA women are especially going to benefit and I’m so happy about that!

I believe that God’s hand is upon Donald Trump.

“King Salman is anticipated to hand over ruling authority to Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman next week.”

Don’t bet on it. Three years is more likely.
