WASHINGTON — President Trump’s nomination of Gina Haspel to lead the C.I.A. has revived debate over the agency’s post-Sept. 11 interrogation program and still-murky questions about her involvement. Now, on the eve of her Senate confirmation hearing, a striking voice is trying to join that fray: Khalid Shaikh Mohammed.

Mr. Mohammed, the principal architect of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, was captured in March 2003 and tortured by the C.I.A. This week, he asked a military judge at Guantánamo Bay for permission to share six paragraphs of information about Ms. Haspel with the Senate Intelligence Committee.

Ms. Haspel ran a black-site prison in Thailand where another high-level detainee was tortured in late 2002. But it is not known whether she was involved, directly or indirectly, in Mr. Mohammed’s torture. Mr. Mohammed was held in secret C.I.A. prisons in Afghanistan and Poland.

How is he still alive? Should have hung him upside down and let him be eaten away by hydrochloric acid. Drip by Drip.

A modern twist on the Chinese water torture.

It literally is sickening the shite they come up with when the last idiotic concept doesn’t stick. The draining of the swamp is going to kill the Democratic Party for good and they’re too stupid to realize it.

Kill 3000 Americans, saw a journalist head off and get a voice to bash Trump. I thought the dems were digging from the bottom of the barrel when they put Stormy on a pedestal

Let Congress hear the man.
If he says how terrible she is, then it's a win! Certainly we want a person in charge of the See Eye Ay that criminals don't like.
If he accuses her of committing illegal acts, who is going to believe the mastermind of 9/11?
If he says she was fantastic in her job, then how can anyone vote against her since event the criminals think she is fair.
Seems to be a win-win-win.
Geaux gfor it!
