Representative Joaquin Castro (D., Texas) claimed without evidence Friday that White House adviser Jared Kushner may have prompted the Saudi government to assassinate journalist Jamal Khashoggi by including his name on an enemies list provided to Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman.
During an appearance on CNN, Castro cited reporting that Jared Kushner may have, with U.S. intelligence, delivered a hit list, an enemies list, to the crown prince, to MBS, in Saudi Arabia and that the prince may have acted on that, and one of the people he took action against is Mr. Khashoggi.
Curtis Houck ✔ @CurtisHouck Video: Here's the video of Democratic Congressman Joaquin Castro stating without evidence that Kushner may have given the Saudis a hit list that had Khashoggi's name on it and thus the Saudis had him killed. Incredibly irresponsible.

Anchor Poppy Harlow pushed back, pointing out that CNN had not obtained any information corroborating Castros claim.
Ive seen reporting to that effect . . . that needs to be investigated, Castro responded.
Kushner has established close ties to the Saudi crown prince since joining the White House, but there has been no indication that he was in any way involved with Khashoggis disappearance.
Khashoggi, a Saudi insider-turned-dissident, entered the countrys consulate in Istanbul on October 2 and hasnt been seen since. Turkish officials claim he was murdered and dismembered inside the consulate by a team of 15 assassins dispatched to Turkey from Saudi Arabia. Turkish investigators are now searching a wooded area outside Istanbul for Khashoggis remains following the revelation that a Saudi vehicle drove to the area after leaving the consulate the day Khashoggi disappeared.
