You are probably right. She may be a good choice. The Dems are going bananas.

“””””””””””The Dems appear to be very anti-female in the Trump Administration. They hate Devos and seems like any female.

In the same breath, they call it an all male administration. “”””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””

So when Tillerson was going through confirmation the liberals were ripping hm apart as Putins pal, someone who would do everything to help oil companies, etc. A terrible choice they said.

Will they stick up for him now that he is unemployed?

“Jessica Chastain’s character on Zero Dark Thirty was based on Gina.”

They NEVER mention her name in this article from 2014. But they love to hate her, so, excellent choice, Mr. President!

Only because she's a woman and Maobama was in a putsch to womanize the agency.

This girl is the real deal.

The Dems are very concerned that their largest voting constituencies, women and blacks, may leave the plantation. Therefore any Republican goodwill to either of these groups is a major threat, and people like Clarence Thomas and Devos, Mrs. Trump, etc. are attacked unmercifully.

“Claimed she “tortured terrorists.”

What, did she bully them? To the left, hurting terrorist’s feelings is torture!

The lefties also blamed her for the failure to discover the 9/11 plot. Had there not been the “Gorelick wall” and had they listened to Lt. Col. Tony Shaffer and the “Able Danger” staffers, they would have foiled the plot in it’s infancy.

Maybe the wasn't the plan, unfortunately I think our gov't is scattered with nasty playing ilk.

The left always loathes any conservative women, just as it also loathes any “minority” person aligned with a conservative cause or administration. For Leftards, anyone who does not fit with their propaganda against the dreaded “white male fascists” is particularly to be hated and opposed.

Sometimes ya just gotta do what needs to be done. The EITS sure as hell weren’t torture. We do worse to our own people at SERE and the SOF courses. Of course, the Europeans would put them up in 5 star hotels and treat them as guests. Most of these shitbags after being threatened with rendition to their home countries or other Middle Eastern states begged to stay in US custody.

‘Everyone knows Irene Kennedy was the first female head of the CIA.”

“EXCLUSIVE: CBS Films and Lionsgate have set Sanaa Lathan to play the role of CIA Deputy director Irene Kennedy in American Assassin.”

Thanks for posting this reality. This will drive the anti President Trumpsters up the wall.

“Gina Haspel probably hates Obama and Brennan:”

Folks think about this. The former top spook is now in charge of all of Cankles’ former subordinates and all their correspondence.

I can see that. They can also throw in even more hysterical comparisons with Elizabeth Báthory bathing in the blood of virgins. :P
