“The agency has said Haspel’s then-boss Jose Rodriguez, the former head
of the CIA’s clandestine service, was behind the decision to destroy the

Most likely the democrats cave in the name of “National Security” which is ridiculous when we have a nest of traitors in the White House.

But again, if Trump was going to nominate a woman it had to be Cruella DeVille.

You know you’re in trouble when you exhale in relief that the torturer and war criminal that Trump nominated to head the CIA is at least a professional.

Yet Tom Cotton has trended on Twitter this morning due to the immense collective relief over his not being the pick, probably due to the current political climate in which no Republican seat is any longer viewed as safe. Haspel is a criminal, but Cotton’s perceived level of evil is such that her nomination is, at least to many on Twitter this morning, viewed as the lesser threat to the nation.
