Identity grease great to have you with me. We get so some very serious news coming out of washington, d. C. This morning, reaction continuing to pour in over the highly Controversial Senate report that was fiej lfinally released. The report claims the cia interrogation after the 9 11 attacks fortune tin effective and much more brutal than represented. The cia is fighting back. Challenging key findings alongside former directors who have dismiss tds report as onesided and marred by errors. Di diane feinstein, spoke about the committee on the senate floor. Fur up with the kid, some of the details in this report are graphic. Detainees were subjected to the most aggressive techniques immediately. Stripped naked, diapered, physically struck and put in various painful stress positions for long periods of time. They were deprived of sleep for days. In one case up to 180 hours, thats seven and a half days, over a week with no sleep. The cia lead several detainees to believe they would never be allowed to leave cia custody alive. Detainees at one facility, described as a dungeon, were kept in complete darkness, constantly shackled in isolated cells with loud noise or music and only a bucket to use for human waste. Now, Andrea Mitchell reports there were even more horrifying conditions. Dungeons where one detainee stripped naked died of hypothermia. Bin laden lieutenant was water boarded for two and a half weeks 24 7 until he passed out. 9 11 plotter Khalid Mohammed was water boarded, nearly drowned, slammed against walls until the report says he started making you were stories, a fake Nuclear Suitcase bomb and a report that al qaeda was recr t recruiting in montana. There was also confusion about how many detainees exists. Records show at least 119. But cia officials stated there were less than 100. Cia records show that president bush was kept in the dark w his first briefing taking place in 2006. Thats four years after the program began. One memo said the to keep details hidden from colin powell because he may employee his stack if he were to be briefed on whats going on. This is is a train wreck waiting to happen and i intend to get the held off the train before it happens. The fiveyear investigation also disputes claim that is the enhanced interrogations stopped eminent attacks and lead to information that located Osama Bin Laden in pakistan. The Committee Found that the cias coercive interrogation techniques were not an effective means of acquiring accurate intelligence or gaining detainee cooperation. We took 20 examples that the cia itself claimed to show the success of these interrogations. Our staff reviewed every one of the 20 cases. And not a single case holds up. Actionable intelligence that was otherwise unavailable. Otherwise unavailable was not obtained using these interrogation techniques. So there was swift reaction from all sides to the report which critics said could put americans at home and overseas at risk. President obama priced those working to keep u. S. Citizen safe. One of the things that sets us apart from other counteds is when we make mistakes, we admit them. And i think that as i said in my written statement, there are a lot of folks who work very hard after 9 11 to keep us safe during a very hazardous situation, a time when people were unsure of what was taking place. But what was also true is that we took some steps that were contrary to who we are, contrary to our values. As ive said before, constituted torture in my mind. And thats not who we are. Republican senator john mccain, himself a prisoner of war in i think its an insult to the many Intelligence Officers whoever acquired good intelligence without hurting or degrading prisoners to assert we cant win this war without such methods. Yes, we can and we will. I have often said and will always maintain that this question isnt about our enemies. Its about us. Its about who we were, who we are and who we aspire to be. He says the enhanced interrogation methods are not torture and the investigation has been politicized. As bad as some people think cia behavior was with regard to these 100 or so detainees, if everyone on the planet used cia behavior as the model, the over all treatment of detainees on earth would actually improve. This report was supposed to have conducted interviews, hearings and give recommendations. It doesnt have any of those. I was in government for ten years after 9 11. And let me tell you a phrase i inform heard from anybody in any position of authority. Whatever you guys do about this terrorism threat, please please dont overreact. Never heard it. Theres also debate about whether congressional critics of the cias tactics not only knew about what were being employed but chose not to speak about it until years later. Nancy pelosi was briefed in too about the enhanced terrorism techniques. Pelosi she heard about some of the methods in three but was not told at the time that water boarding was being used. He personally told her in 2002 that water boarding had been used. Rodriguez also siefinds fault w jay rockefeller. Weve got big news on bipartisan ship in d. C. Working. Congress has avoided a shut down with little time to spare on this. They revealed a 1. 1 trillion dollar spending bill. A side note tbill only keeps the department of Homeland Security funded through february when republicans hope to roll back the president S Immigration action. And a proinvestigation to dramatically increase limits on political contributions. And for the very first time benefits benefits to retirees to be cut. Money for the fight against ice and funding to fight the spread of ebola. The bill is expected to go to a vote in the next few days. The mit economist who passed on obamacare vet because of the stupid di of the american voter. He described his comments as arrogant and inexcusable. In excerpts of these videos im shown making a series of glib, thoughtless or down right demeaning comments. I knew better, i know better. Im embarrassed and im sorry. Gruber angered republicans by refusing to say how much money he received consulting for work on health care legislation. Night before last, i was at the Kennedy Center honors where they honored tom hanks famously forest gump, the ultimate in successful stupid man. Are you stupid . I dont think so, no. Does mit employ stupid people. Not to my knowledge. So youre a smart man who said come as the Ranking Member said, some really stupid things. And you said the same, is that correct. The comments i made were really inexcusable. So as republican tried to focus on the numbers, according to the more than 70 people enrolled in the Affordable Care act thus far, they wanted to keep the focus on the success of that. And he did so during an interview wi interview. He said last year it would be a violation of law to shield anyone but dreamers from deportation. Removing the issue of politics aside, what legally changed kwoem. Well, you know, what i think changed is that having done what we did with the dream kids, my argument was not that we did not have some additional authority, my argument is that i did not have the authority to simply not deport. Now tpresident also had a Serious Exchange about the Record Number of deportations issued earlier in his administration. As you were saying, you always had the Legal Authority to stop deportations. Then why did you deport two Million People . For six years you did it. Jorge, no, no, no. That is not true. So the president also said hes not concerned about being impeached over his executive action on immigration because he say what is hes done is neither illegal nor unprecedented. It was a mixed day on wall street with the dow and the s p up but the nasdaq up 26 points. What arewatching for today . Here we were plowing forward to record highs ohhn a weekly basis.
