Prosecution -- Not Nomination!
Oppose Gina Haspel for CIA Head
Facebook Event
Last month, President Trump nominated Gina Haspel, the current Deputy Director of the CIA to become Director. Haspel is best known for overseeing a CIA black site in Thailand in 2002 where two Guantanamo detainees, Abu Zubaydah and Al-Nashiri, were waterboarded and tortured. Furthermore, Haspel was involved in destroying agency interrogation tapes - a move clearly designed to erase the possibility of transparency and accountability.
Because of her involvement in torture, Haspel should be prosecuted Instead of rewarded. Thus, this action will be held on the morning of Haspel's confirmation hearing, pointing out her involvement with CIA black sites in the War on Terror. The call will also be made for Congressional members to oppose her confirmation and to demand accountability for those who designed, conducted, oversaw, and/or implemented the CIA's Rendition, Detention, and Interrogation program.
