        Gina Haspel, the first woman to run the CIA is a torturer and responsible for the destruction of evidence of torture. She fits perfectly in Trump's criminal administration.

        A torturer as CIA director? How long before they start taking people off the street?

        By your logic everyone who has ever worked at the CIA before a few years ago is a “torturer”

        She actively tortured people. Then called it something else, so that all those who had been involved wouldn't feel so guilty.

        The people who testified against her. Including the former agent dragged away from the hearings by guards.

        Huge blemish in US history! A murederous torture prone dishonest and ugly woman voted in by a bunch of do nothing Senators that should be voted out of office in next elections! Anyone voting for her should be targeted and voted out of office!

        I have no pride in this woman's achievements seeing as how she got here by being a willing participant in torture programs and the continued cover-up of those heinous crimes. CIA is not to be trusted under her leadership.

        This decision will be back to kick us in the face. Trump signed a bill that torture could be increased. Obama rule turn around AGAIN. It might end up in question on our own people and of course those people Trump calls all kinds of names. Any one NOT white Male.
