RIYADH, Saudi Arabia (AP) — Saudi Arabia’s King Salman on Saturday removed a prominent prince who headed the National Guard, replaced the economy minister and announced the creation of a new anti-corruption committee.Of course we'd like to lock up all critics of the Quesach Trumperach (we're jesting).
The Saudi-owned Al-Arabiya news channel also reported late Saturday that 11 princes and dozens of former ministers were detained in a new anti-corruption probe headed by the kingdom’s powerful Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, who was also named to oversee the new committee.
(Update: Also arrested was Trump Critic and billionaire Prince al-Waleed bin Talal, a prominent investor in US companies including Twitter and Citigroup, the New York Times reported.)

Anyway, in Israel Strikes: War of the Red Sea the new Saudi King, self-installed via coup, goes on a reform spree. Funnily [if you think so, mate, Ed] the new king is patterned after Justin 'Trudeau'.
[Why the quote marks-Ed]
We include quote marks because Justin's real dad is Fidel Castro. We kid thee not.
