  • South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham was pictured meeting Saudi Arabia's Mohammed bin Salman. 
  • The US senator had pledged to isolate the Saudi leader over the killing of Jamal Khashoggi. 
  • But he appears to have had a change of heart. 

Sen. Lindsey Graham held a meeting with Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince this week, a leader he had previously described as an "unhinged" murderer following the assassination of dissident Jamal Khashoggi.

"The opportunity to enhance the U.S.-Saudi relationship is real and the reforms going on in Saudi Arabia are equally real," he added.
