CIA Director Gina Haspel will brief Senate leaders Tuesday on what is known about the death of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi, the Wall Street Journal reported Monday, citing unnamed people familiar with the matter.
Multiple senators have said that the White House prevented Haspel from briefing them on Khashoggi alongside Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Defense Secretary James Mattis last week. National Security Adviser John Bolton denied that the White House prevented Haspel from briefing senators, as did the CIA.
Message received.
You’re a career CIA officer, Director Haspel. Just remember that, please, and give them the professional assessment. Individual One is not entitled to and does not control the facts.
Haspel should be able to brief the senators on whether or not he was tortured using US taught techniques or not, finally an upside for that disgraceful chapter in her career.
And yes she has heard the Khasooggi tapes, she is not squeamish. Now if we could hear the tapes that she destroyed about detainees been tortured in thailand, that would be great.
