Gina Haspel confirmed as CIA director

 

FOX:

Gina Haspel was confirmed Thursday as CIA director, becoming the first woman to lead the agency and overcoming initial Democratic opposition regarding her role in post-9/11 interrogation and detention practices.

The Senate voted 54-45 to confirm President Trump’s nominee, with six Democrats supporting and two Republicans defecting. Haspel, whose nomination was endorsed by the Senate Intelligence Committee a day earlier, previously was deputy director and has spent her career with the agency.

Trump tweeted his congratulations after the vote.  MORE

  1. Great news. I was worried because three of my favorite scumbags, Kamella Harris, D-Cal, Jack Reed D-Rhode Island, and Diane Feinstein, D- Cal tried to break her chops. As did The “wet start” McCain and “Broken ribs”Rand Paul. Fuck y’all. Congrats. Director Haspel, make the CIA Great Again. And MAGA! The FBI is next. Bring on Michael Flynn.
