Abundant tweets about civil liberties & national security. "Has a longer memory than an elephant & keeps more records than Jim Comey.” Legendary potty mouth.

      Actually the memos have been declassified, John. They show that CIA talked Pat Roberts into shutting down the investigation that Bob Graham had started in 2002.

      They also document that Michael Hayden had been briefed on things that he went on to lie about to Congress in 2007.

      They also show deceptive answers to Jane Harman. Again--these are CIA's own MOUs of the briefings, not Congress'.

      They also show that Rodriguez changed a cable after the first briefing w/Nancy Pelosi. That's pretty crazy, huh?

      Isn’t Mudd the “sell sell sell” guy from the Senate report?

      I don't 100% know all the places Mudd appears in the report. Would actually be an interesting project, now that Haspel has assured us using CIA cables as the only source to understand CIA operations is fair.

      I’ll say this for Mudd though: he doesn’t pretend that his title in CTC is a state secret

      No one is calling him to testify. This is all about denying Nashiri due process.

      Well it’s also about getting confirmed, avoiding international legal problems, and general impunity principals I think
