Republicans May Veto Trump's Haspel Nomination for CIA Director Because of Torture Program

Sen. Jeff Flake, R-Ariz., said Wednesday that he will not vote to confirm President Donald Trump's pick to lead the CIA.

Flake is the third Republican Senator after Sens. John McCain, R-Ariz., and Rand Paul, R-Ky., to say they will vote against the confirmation of Gina Haspel due to her role in the CIA's now illegal torture program.

Although three Republicans have said they plan to vote against Haspel's confirmation, at least five Democrats have said they will vote in favor of Trump's pick to lead the spy agency.

5 Democratic Senators will vote for her confirmation.

Flake only believes in torturing innocent dogs, ans then covering it up in the court system.  All to save his son from being sued.  The audacity of Flake is beyond me.

McCain will not be voting because of his injured brain, unless he received the "cure," which is entirely possible.

Rand Paul, well, Rand Paul.

Best part about Flake is that after he is gone from the Senate no one will give one thought about him ever again.

Flake is the third Republican Senator after Sens. John McCain, R-Ariz.,

It doesn't matter what the hell McCain says .... he can't vote.

The left has been allowed to take this 'torture' meme way too far.

If the question were put to most Americans that throwing a washcloth over a POS's face and pouring water on it would get him to divulge information that would save innocent lives from terrorists' bombs & bullets most Americans would say hell yeah.

We do not know that about McCain.  He is a cagey sort.  He may have gone to Lourde's and taken the cure.  He has been ill with his brain in more ways than one since I can remember.

Every special operator in the US Military has been subjected to far worse as a part of their training.  This entire meme is total BS!
