cranky, I think your link is broken rather than tweet unavail.
Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MBS) has been issued a summons by a US court for a lawsuit by a former top Saudi intelligence agent who was reportedly targeted in a foiled assassination attempt.
The US District Court for the District of Columbia issued the summons on Friday, a day after Saad al-Jabri filed the lawsuit accusing Prince Mohammed of sending a hit squad to Canada to try and kill him.
"It is rather an odd realm of law, but it asks the court to dismiss the case because it will interfere with the foreign relations of the US and relations with a head of state or high-level officials.
"But that means November [US elections] will be critical for Saudi Arabia. I can guarantee you right now that Saudi Arabia and the crown prince are talking with Pompeo and Trump asking them get him out of this."
The “Tiger Squad,” or “Firqat el-Nemr,” is a private death squad made up of approximately 50 intelligence, military, and forensic operatives recruited from different branches of the Saudi government with one unifying mission: loyalty to the personal whims of Defendant bin Salman.

What's the point of Senators Johnson and Graham investigating the same thing that Barr/Durham have been investigating? Seems it was just to score political points with the "base", because Congress can't do anything beyond recommending indictments. Devin Nunes alone has sent at least 23 of those recommendations into the DOJ's black-hole since early 2018.
