Meanwhile, President Trump has gone from saying the Saudi's official account was 'credible' on Friday to saying he is 'not satisfied' with the Saudis' account in a phone interview with the Washington Post last night.
'Obviously there's been deception, and there's been lies,' Trump said.
Trump's comments came after 22 senators sent a letter to Trump demanding an independent probe into Khashoggi's disappearance and alleged murder.
Under the 2016 Global Magnitsky Act the White House has 120 days to carry out a probe and impose sanctions on anyone responsible.
Trump continued to talk about the importance of high dollar arms deals with Saudi Arabia however.
Trump also attempted to distance Jared Kushner from MBS. He said, 'they're two young guys; Jared doesn't know him well or anything.'
