Anti-war activist, Former CIA analyst Ray McGovern was removed from the US Senate hearing. President Donald Trump’s nominee for CIA director Gina Haspel answering questions about the torture.
McGovern dragged from the room forcefully by Police. As you can see from the footage, McGovern was not resisting at all, yet police kept shouting at him to “stop resisting!”. I think police is trained to act and react in certain way and that is, even if a person does not resist you act as if they are and arrest them.
McGovern: “Will a Torturer Become CIA Director?”
Hearing get interrupted by another protester shouting: “Bloody Gina!”, “you are a torturer!” also removed by police.
“Bloody Gina” was her nickname given to Haspel by CIA colleagues, according to whistleblower John Kiriakou, who also claimed that Haspel personally tortured people because she “enjoyed it”.
What has happened to free speech? All true Americans should be outraged by this.
Ray McGovern is a hero. He and his group Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity (VIPS) tried to tell us there were no WMD's in Iraq. They've warned us not to go into Lybia, Syria, and about Intel agencies spying on us. He's a hundred times the man you'll ever be.
