Eamon Javers on Twitter: “What’s not in this tweet is any indication WHY Mnuchin is not going to the conference. Is the administration concerned/offended/horrified by the alleged Saudi murder? Or is this just a scheduling issue? Tweet itself does not say.… https://t.co/vGSVEKmvVo”

I agree. 🙂 The actual thought process that resulted in this decision is something I’d like to know but that’s probably just a fantasy. If I were Mnuchin however I know why I wouldn’t be there: I wouldn’t want to hang out with people who might see it fit to bone-saw me to death later in the month; and who would be able to bring themselves to do that to another human being; and who would be able to order others to do that to another human being.

It’s a disgraceful lack of ethics, Mr. Mnuchin et al.
