absolutely i feel it works. >> now, the president added that he will rely upon the counsel of cia director mike pompeo and secretary of defense general james mattis. mattis has said torture does not work. joining us is nor paul rand of kentucky. what is your reaction to what the president had to say about torture? >> you know, i was comforted about a month ago when i heard that he had a conversation with general mattis who unequivocally said that torture doesn't work. but we've also studied this. the cia detained 119 people. 39 of them were tortured and the conclusion of the senate committee's report was that it didn't work, but there was also something very alarming. of the 119 people that the cia detained around the world, 26 of them were mistakenly identified. sometimes with people who had similar names, but they detained the wrong people. i think most americans would be alarmed if 22% of the people we picked up and tortured were the wrong people.
