CIA may have to reveal Haspel’s hidden past

“To get her on the board, I have to see everything that’s available,” said Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.), a must-have vote for Haspel to be confirmed. “It should be made available to us, absolutely. Because there’s some concerns there and I understand that.”…

Another intelligence committee member who’s on the fence about Haspel, Sen. Angus King (I-Maine), said he wants more information on her role in the Bush-era detainee interrogation program, “and also the destruction of the videotapes.”

“It’s going to be an open session, and I’ve said I want the CIA to declassify as much as they possibly can about that incident so we can talk about it in an open setting,” King, who caucuses with Democrats, said in an interview. “Because, frankly, I’m undecided.”
