The Saudi Visit, the Epstein Vote & Oz Pearlman the Mentalist 11/18/25
Saudi Crown Prince Mohamed bin Salman visits the White House today; his first visit since the 2018 killing of journalist Jamal Khashoggi. Retired 4-star General David Petraeus describes the high stakes of the event and the shifting politics in the Middle East. The complex web of connections to the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein has revealed private communications between Epstein and former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers, causing Summers to announce a pull-back from public appearances – as the house readies for a vote to ask the President to release more full files. Emily Wilkins reports on Senate Republicans’ new goal to lower health care costs. And, how’d he do it? Mentalist Oz Pearlman reads minds – and the results are stunning.
