we know what dianne feinstein did this.so think it's a moment where we can as a country take a look at what we're doing and our behavior and understand the fear that drove it and what we ought to be doing going forward. >> david? >> i just don't agree that this is an appropriate time. of course we need to be transparent over time. i think there are time and places where you can do that. when you can have a more rational, calmer conversation. but when you're in the middle of a conflict with people who are beheading their hostages and dressing them up as if they're detainees of americans and want to use this against us. i'm not sure i'd want to play into their hands. so many americans are questioning authority coming out of ferguson and all these race issues. i'm not sure this is a time to put another log on that fire. >> all right, guys. we're going to continue this discussion, full analysis. a lot more of the details. all of our reporters and producers, they're going thro h through. and i have it right here. these hundreds

is that what dianne feinstein did here? >> looks like it. they want to investigate, they fought jerry sponge ability -- they do it in private. don't do it in public because the first rule of foreign policy should be first do no harm. what we doing by this? endangering americans at home and abroad, putting out intelligence community in danger and we are frankly a generation of intelligence communities. we did this in the late 1970s. when senator frank church ran for president, and air cia and dirty laundry, he did not run for president but as a result of what he did, for generation, we have for our ability to collect human intelligence. lou: he got it, clandestine forces as a result, interviews of money. is there a political coincidence here? if at this report was released by dianne feinstein today that there was a public release of a difference of view between the white house and the couple cabinet members and the cia director about its released just as jonathan gruber was be trained the left by showing the fact that it was the fraud. obamac

and what do you make of dianne feinstein's silence on that issue in comparison? >> yeah, it's very interesting because, you know, this administration actually does not take any prisoners. they prefer to kill them from afar using drones. and somehow they feel that because they kill from a distance somehow it's more ethical. more ethical than the difficult and messy and unpleasant task and mission of actually interrogating a prisoners. i think it's a distortion of what our values are. you know what our values are -- >> i'll give you a choice, get waterboarded or get drilled with a drone strike. i think i'll take the waterboarding. >> i think i'll take the waterboarding, too. >> it's sad that you have to go through this, jose, because i view you and the work that you did to save america and keep america safe as an integral part of the fact that we've not been attacked in a major way since. so thank you for all you've done. we appreciate it. >> well, thank you very much. and thanks to all the people who are actually involved in the years that it took to destroy the a

also, dana bash who just spoke with senator dianne feinstein. senior white house correspondent jim acosta, pentagon correspondent barbara starr and with us from cairo where there are security concerns is ian lee. first, we want to go to evan perez with a look at what this report will say. good morning, evan. >> good morning, john. there's no doubt this is going to be a really ugly day for the cia. this report has been fought over for years now. for the last few months the cia has been working with the white house and with the senate to try to decide what to release in this report. the findings are going to be really ugly in the sense that we're going to learn a lot more about what went on in this program. we know for a fact that there's going to be more information about the detainees, what they were subjected to. we also know that the report will portray the cia as going beyond what the methods that were authorized by memos that were done by the justice department and that it misled, according to the democrats who did this report, that it misle

is that what dianne feinstein did here? >> sure looks like it.re's no problem with investigating. they wanted to investigate, they thought they were regulars, do it in private. don't do it in public. first rule of foreign policy is first do no harm. what are we doing by this? endangering americans at home and abroad. putting our intelligence community in danger, and we are frankly we're going to go back gutting a generation of intelligence communities and networks. we did this in the late 1970s lou when senator frank church wanted to run for president. he didn't get to run for president. as a result of what he did, for a generation, we had hampered our ability to collect human intelligence. lou: he gutted the clandestine forces in the views of many. is there a political coincidence here that this report was released by feinstein today, that there was a public release of a difference of view between the white house and a couple of its cabinet members and the cia director about its release just as jonathan gruber was betraying the left by showing t

even if you feel as dianne feinstein and everybody else does in this report that this was torture andfective, isn't it better than dying? >> i mean, people have died as a result. >> it's torturous for these drone strikes. >> we go after -- we have the authority to say the whole world is a war theater and we can target anybody who"sv2 we feel threat even if they're american without a trial that'sbhf too. >> josh earnest was on his heels there because you can't really split hairs like that and say it's better to kill them than to waterboard them or hold them with their arms above their head. >> rather be dead than go through some kind of torture. >> not me. not me. >> who knows what kind of condition. living is certainly the preference. >> yes. i mean, they're caught in this. they're caught in an imponl place because they haven't been id logically. that's ideologically different. they support torture -- by the way, they have not negated anything in the report. clearly they're defending themselves -- >> oh, yes they have. >> basically said we did not do any of this stuff. >> they've cho

senator dianne feinstein outlined the reports for major conclusions.irst, the cia's enhanced interrogation techniques, which includes waterboarding, were not effective in collecting intelligence. second, the cia misled policy makers and the public on the cia intelligent program. third, cia managers failed to supervise the program appropriately. and fourth, the program was far more brutal than the cia presented. >> question, what does senator dianne feinstein hope to accomplish by making this report public? >> she hoped to damage the bush administration. but i'll tell you what she did. what she's got here is a pretty vicious attack. it's a vindictive prosecutor's document. she didn't talk to cia people. she didn't talk to the alleged people that did these grizzly things. she talked about things we've known about ten years. she said it was a decade ago. she's dredged this all up. she's damaged our relations with foreign intelligence agencies exposed. she's damaged the reputation of the united states. and for what? we've heard these things! we've heard ab

dianne dianne feinstein says they could not question them because there were investigations underwayal action. as a result they just read transcripts from interviews that all of you gave but they couldn't question you directly. do you accept that? >> no. that's absurd. and i could go on for 25 minutes on this. the fact of the matter is the justice department has never had real power over congressional committee who seeks to interview employees. it is up to employees in the case of an ongoing criminal investigation to decline because of possible self-incrimination. the point is the choice with s with the employee. every previous congressional investigation including iran-contra i was deeply involved in. the congressional committee wants to talk to the people whose work they are scrutinizing. in this case, maligning. so the fact that this notion that somehow they were precluded is silly. first, a personal example. january 2008. i testified, not interviewed. i testified under oath under threat of perjury with no lawyer, no handlers before the full house intelligence committee. 26 member

this is unlike her, the dianne feinstein we've known. the only thing i can say about it is she's mad at the cia over alleged spying on her staff while they were compiling this report, but she's been mad at the cia for a while. i don't say she did this in quite a fit of personal pique because she's been on this for years. this does feed into party orthodoxy about the evils of the cia and all the rest of it, but it's very hard to explain dianne feinstein's behavior here. i find it striking. look, the thing about this fight, this will renew the debate over enhanced interrogation techniques, but that debate ended years ago. one side won and it was her side. in my view, this is reopening an old wound and a debate long ago settled in favor of discontinuing the practices that she now says the american people have to be told about. well, they've known about it for years. >> now, it's just been expanded upon and brought to the national forefront. >> reopened. >> and to the danger of those men and women who are serving this country right now and c

jon: senator dianne feinstein of california speaking now in the u.s.ate about the release of this report on the cia and its enhanced interrogation techniques. let's listen. >> the report, released today, examines the cia's secret overseas detention of at least 119 individuals and the use of coercive interrogation techniques, in some cases amounting to torture. over the past couple of weeks, i've gone through a great deal of introspection about whether to delay the release of this report to a later time. this colorly is a period -- clearly is a period of turmoil and instability in many parts of the world. unfortunately, that's going to continue for the foreseeable future whether this report is released or not. there are those who will seize upon the report and say see what the americans did? and they will try to use it to justify evil actions or incite more violence. we can't prevent that. but history will judge us by our commitment to a just society governed by law and the willingness to face an ugly truth and say never again. there may never be the ri

dianne fienstein is exemplary of that. to have her taking issue point by point during the speech was unusual. almost as if they were trolling to use the term, trolling john brennan. she put out a written statement largely conciliatory really, but is taking issue with the phrase that brennan adopted from the white house talking point. he didn't use it in the statement on tuesday when the report was released. an unknowable phrase - whether or not the same information could have been gleaned from people who were intention interrogated, prisoners interrogated, detainees without harsh techniques. the white house said it's unknowable, may as well not discuss it. president obama certainly has not been eager to talk about it over the course of the last days. and jacob brennan is using the phrase as well. dianne fienstein certainly taking issue with that. >> so that point, let's listen to brennan defending the use of enhanced interrogation techniques. >> there was useful intelligence, very useful, valuable, that was obtained from i

. >> senator dianne fienstein's response: was the c.i.a. honest when it discussed the programme with its civilian overseers. >> the record simply does not support the study's interest. that the agency systematically and intentionally misled others programme. >> senator dianne fienstein, former c.i.a. council, preston said: was the committee report a partisan attack? >> unfortunately the committee could not agree on a bipartisan way forward. senator dianne fienstein: for more, i'm joined by al jazeera senior washington correspondent mike viqueira. mike, good to see you. these two unprecedented event, a news conference by the director of the c.i.a. defending the agency, and at the same time the chair of that senate committee that issued the report cailenting him on twitter. and all your time in washington - have you ever seen anything like this? >> i guess it's a bold new world in a way, and technology facilitates that, things have changed. i was struckly dianne fienstein doing that. she's not the aggressive in our face-type. she's old school

[actually hearing dianne talk, it fills me with a kind of sadness, really, for the organization that i used to be a part of, i left in 2003. one of which was that the torture program at that time was in full swing, and was being talked about in the hallway, although i wasn't a part of it, what made me sad is how many times she referred to c.i. a. intelligence officers who questioned the ethicacy of the program. who questioned the management of the program. and that those -- that questioning really fell on deaf earring. and that was so familiar to me. when you thinks that are just wrong, there is no recourse. is this any validity to their arguments. >> well, there is a validity, i do agree with that. the c.i.a. was under tremendous pressure after september 11th, and i think that's what caused the c.i.a. to veer so far from the morale compass of the country, that it's intended to serve. i don't dispute at all that the agency was under pressure to get actionable intelligence, that said, the c.i.a. operatives are not trained interrogators and one thing that is coming out in this report,

. >> so dianne feinstein wants to get this off her desk. she's not going to be the committee chairman much longer, she wants to punch this and -- when democrats were screaming about this issue, that's how they took back congress. they defeated tom delay's map. and one thing obama did when he came into office was go after cia agents. they're going after an old playbook because they don't have any other ideas. if there was an attack on times square, impending, and we knew someone who had information, it would be immoral not to ask. whether you're for torture or not, we used to torture, we don't anymore. we do not. so why are we bringing this up now. to those who are so outraged about this, i ask this question. it's okay to drone terrorists overseas, without a trial, just wipe them out. but sleep depravation, that's where you're going to get fired up? it seems a little bit disturbed and perverse. they were fighting a new war, there were new rules and all they were trueing to do -- their heart's in the right place, isn't that what liberalism is

dianne feinstein. the next person to speak after senator feinstein was a republican senator john mccain of arizona. the former presidential candidate is known to be a tough defender of homeland security, one of the toughest in this nation. he is a tough defender of our military and an extreme defender of our intelligence community, but today, senator john mccain welcomed the release of this report and thanked the democrats on the intelligence committee for their work. senator mccain obviously has first hand knowledge of the effects of torture because his study of practices that i believe not only failed their purpose to secure actionable intelligence to prevent further attacks on the u.s. and our allies, but actually damaged our security interests as well as our reputation as a force of good in the world. >> i believe the american people have a right, indeed responsibility, to know what was done in their name. >> senator john mccain. president obama stopped the torture of detainees after he was elected

you can see it on our website and the start, here is how the chairwoman senator dianne feinstein put it to sit -- start things off. >> the representations, detainees were subjected to the most aggressive techniques immediately. strip naked, diapered and put in long stressed positions and they were deprived of sleep for days. in one case, up to 180 hours. that is seven and a half days over a week with no sleep read usually standing or in stress positions. at times with their hands tied together over their heads, ch ained to the ceiling. >> many supporters are against the release of this report. here's a counterpart -- counterpoint from mitch mcconnell. >> the serves no purpose whatsoever other than to endanger americans around the world at a time of growing concern about the rise of terrorism. and the president seem to declare the war on terror over a while back. the terrorists did not get the message. >> we heard a lot of graphic things described today as this report came out. we are jaded and cynical about this in various ways. what was the most surprising and unsettling thing you l

senator dianne feinstein, a vocal critic of enhanced interrogation, claims she didn't learn about theon techniques until years later. and this week former cia director michael hayden backed that up on "america's newsroom." listen. >> senator feinstein did not. the congress, gang of four and the gang of eight, knew this from the very beginning. >> so as michael hayden acknowledges, some did not know. plenty of others did. megyn. >> which begs the question, of course. because dianne feinstein had no right to know earlier than when she ascended to her position on the intel committee. those who were in those top positions were told. and now she's pretending like that didn't happen. that's at least how it seems based on the evidence. trace, thank you. well, the democrats went with this report despite repeated requests from secretary john kerry and others to at least delay its release out of concerns for the safety of our american military personnel. so now we're hearing questions about whether the woman in charge, senator feinstein, has an ax to grind here with the cia. we'll take a look a

an introduction to the findings of the committee written by senator dianne feinstein, the head of the committee. of. >> host: now, have you published books like this before? >> guest: no, we haven't within allowed to publish books -- been allowed to publish books like this before. previously, the government has taken these reports such as the 9/11 committee report or the investigation that the senate did into the financial crisis, and it has awarded those books as if they were contracts to larger publishers. and gave them the report early so that they could lay it out for the government and publish those books simultaneously with the government's release of the document. i've never quite understood why that was allowed. those are public documents, they should not be, you know, given preferentially to one publisher or another. they belong to the people of the united states. the government did not do that this time. senator feinstein seems to have been opposed to that. i mean, in the past the government's given production money to some publishers to do this. senator feinstein seemed opp

. >> thank you, bret, on the senate floor today, democratic chair woman dianne feinstein says that the enhanced interrogation techniques is a stain on america. >> governed by law and the willingness to face and ugly truth. and say never again. >> reporter: the 67-page report was -- the report reaches four key findings that the enhanced interrogation program was not an effective way to gather intelligence. the program was grossly mismanaged and it was more brutal than previously known. one example, the waterboarding of al qaeda operative abu zabada. but the report says the interrogation was so extreme, he lost consciousness and was nearly blinded and it concludes extreme tacticses do not elicit credible information. >> i know from personal experience that the abuse of prisoner also produce more bad than good intelligence. >> reporter: but the cia insists detainees the nephew of khalid sheikh mohammed -- >> enhanced interrogation contributed to the wealth of knowledge that we needed to have in order to find al kuwaiti. >> reporter: the report alleges that the crime kept the president in

brennan defended enhanced interrogation techniques, or eit's to reporters, dianne feinstein was busy live tweeting rebuttals to his claims. >> the cause and effect relationships between the use of eit's and useful information provided by the detainee is, in my view, unknowable. >> dianne feinstein responded that there is no evidence attacks were stopped or lives saved. >> it is our view that the detainees who were subjected to enhanced interrogation techniques provided information that was useful and was used in the ultimate operation to go against bin laden. >> dianne feinstein said no. the study proved interrogation did not lead to his chapter referencing the page number. >> john brennan stopped short of using the word "torture." saying the u.s. keeps. the world strong president obama condemned techniques like waterboarding and sleep deprivation which according to him, any reasonable person would consider torture. >> to nigeria. the country held primary elections on thursday. in a run up to the presidential poll. that will pit the former military ruler against goodluck jonathan. he

context, dianne, context. september 11th 2001, 3,000 of us killed in new york, washington and pennsylvania. we don't know who the enemy is, where they're located, what their mission is. and fearing another attack we act to get information. rules are adopted by the president, the national security adviser, the attorney general, the justice department while congress authorizes the use of military force. >> what happened here was that we asked the agency to go put in steps and to take programs and put in steps to kill the bastards who killed on 9/11 and make sure it didn't happen again. >> i was in new york on that sunny afternoon, i had friends at the new york trade center. and as i walked through the ashes in the rubble, i wondered how my friends died. were they burned alive, crushed to death, or did they jump to their deaths? and dianne, you're worried about blowing cigar smoke into a detainee's face? hell, i had a judge do that to me during the trial. i got over it. their mission is to kill us. so while their

politically this is so dangerous what dianne feinstein did.think she's put people's lives in jeopardy. >> well, you know, the president got osama bin laden. you got to give him credit for that. >> because of the waterboarding of khalid sheikh mohammed. >> i'm not sure. >> jose rodriguez was there. he told me. >> well, but what is clear is there's no conclusive evidence that waterboarding has helped. i mean, there really isn't. >> tell you what he said to me. jose rodriguez was there at the waterboarding at ksm. and i asked him three times if, would we have gotten the intelligence to find the courier without waterboarding ksm? and he said absolutely not. it led us to the courier which led us to bin laden. >> you know, sean, one of the shameful things here and bad, dianne feinstein is a great national security senator. >> was. >> she's pro -- i know her well. now, what happened here is politics is about personal relationship -- about personalities. the relationship between the senate committee and the senate democrats and the cia deteriorated af

led by dianne feinstein, the senate release aid detailed 500-page excerpt of this report finding that the cia's torture after 9/11 was ineffective. that the cia misled congress and used inaccurate information to defend this program. the report also finds it was poorly managed and that the techniques were more brutal than the cia had said. senator feinstein also addressed the critics who were against releasing all this new information. >> history will judge us by our commitment to a just society governed by law and the willingness to face an ugly truth and say never again. >> what can you tell us? >> well, ari, this report as you were saying was broken up into a few different categories. among the issues it addressed and looked into was the attempted, if you will, notification of the president at the time, president bush, to see whether or not the cia attempted to brief the president about the enhanced interrogation techniques and whether or not the president knew about it. there's an attempt by senate intelligence committee about the who and when, but in those important themes the enh

dianne feinstein, in her senate remarks, refer to the u.n.ention against torture, which says that torture can never be justified under any circumstance. well, that convention says something else. it says torture must be prosecuted. that when someone is alleged to of committed torture, the case must be referred to the competent authorities for the purpose of prosecution. thatassurance do we have this is not going to happen again? it is not enough to say, well, we tortured some folks, this was a bad policy choice, i'm going to put a stop to the torture. it is not a policy choice. it is a crime. there needs to be -- if this is really going -- if there really going to be any deterrence for this not happening again, there needs to be prosecution. and it is wonderful -- you have talked about human rights watch's work around the world. human rights organizations regularly come up when countries commit torture, when individuals commit torture, we call on those countries to hold the abusers to account. and that has to be the same thing for the united

we know the secretary of state john kerry has appealed to senator dianne feinstein, don't release this report right now because of the potential that americans around the world could be endangered and now we're learning from barbara starr that u.s. marines have been alerted to go on a higher state of alert amongst the report which some call torture techniques. a lot more coming up. obviously a serious alert. whether to release or not to release is the question right now. >>> no let up in the protesters over the choke hold death of eric garner at the hands of a staten island police officer. some of the protests have turned violent. in berkeley, the demonstrations turned deadly. the decision not to indict the police officer in garner's death have set off demonstrations across the united states. police in berkeley say some protesters threw rocks, bottles, explosives at them and they responded with fire and tear gas. at least eight protesters were arrested. two police officers, by the way, were injured. protesters also clashed with police in oakland, california, not far away from berkeley.

the program won't be launching a new investigation based on the report from the democratic chair dianne feinstein. trial or no trial, the cia has some big names coming to its defense, from former vice president dick cheney who blasted the report on fox news. >> i think it's a terrible piece of work. we did exactly what needed to be done in order to catch those who were guilty on 9/11 and to prevent a further attack and we were successful on both parts. and i think -- >> this report says it was not successful. >> their report is full of crap. >> reporter: to the agency's former director michael hayden. >> what stunned me about the report most is the fact it was written in the way it was written. it is an unrelenting prosecutorial document. >> reporter: both men say the cia is right inserting harsh interrogation techniques like shows shop in the film "zero dark thirty" methods prevented attacks and saved life. but on that crucial question, the white house takes no position. >> it is impossible to know the counter-factual. it's impossible to know whether or not this information could have

here's how dianne feinstein put it to start things off. >> in contrast, detainees were subjected to theost aggressive techniques immediately. stripped naked diapered physically struck, and put in stress positions for long periods of time. they were deprived of sleep for days. in one case, up to 180 hours. that is over a week with no sleep. usually standing or in stress positions. at times, with their hands tied together over their heads, chained to the ceiling. >> of course, many supporters of the bush administration are against the release of this report. so you're the counterpoint mitch mcconnell. >> this particular release in my judgment, serves no purpose whatsoever, other than to endanger americans around the world at a time of growing concern about the rise of terrorism. the president seemed to declare the war on terror over a while back. the terrorists obviously did not get the message. >> we heard a lot of graphic things described today as this report came out. we are all jaded and cynical in various ways, but i'm curious to know what was the most unsettling thing you learned to

. >> but senator dianne feinstein ahead of the intelligence committee told the l.a. times that i undermine societal and constitutional values we are proud of up anybody who reads this is going to never let it happen again. changes to racial profiling could come as early as today. they are continues to stop people based on race and nationality if there is information of a threat. but they are extending the ban on racial profiling to include religion, national orbegin, gender and gender identity. he promised that the new standards would help end racial profiliing once and for all. it comes during the nationwide protests involving the racially-charged problems with police. last night it got violent after explosives were thrown. in new york city, a more peaceful protest inside of grand central terminal. supporters chanteder ingarner's final words, i can't breathe. and at games, reggie bush wore a t-shirt back with the detroit lions yesterday. and derrick rose wore one during saturday's warmup. tweeting a picture showing the phrase on his cleats, and actor jaime foxx gave

he goes on the senate floor right after dianne feinstein and applauds what she has just done?makes the point and ere os make the point that if you torture someone, they're going to say whatever the hell they want you to think. they're just going to want to stop being tortured and they're going to say, sure, sure, yes, yes, and the information is not reliable. what do you say to that argument? >> i would come down with mccain. i've been in and around torture. i've watched foreign governments do it from south america to the middle east. i was involved in the investigation of the first embassy bombing in 1983 when the lebanese tortured to death a suspect. and the production from these tortured interviews is abysmal. the egyptians are terrible at it. in general, it does not work. there will be exceptions when it does. but right now, we're talking about a lot of inside baseball. and i happen to agree with peter that the senate and mccain didn't come out and say this without good reason. they didn't stake their reputations on this unless they believe the information was obtained out

(laughter) let's let dianne feinstein try to make a meal out of a morsel. >> c.i.a.nees kept in darkness, constantly shackled in isolated cells with loud noise or music and only a bucket to use for human waste. stripped naked, diapered, physically struck and put in various physical stress positions for long periods of time. deprived of sleep for days. in one case, up to 180 hours. hands tied together over their heads, chained to the ceiling. rough take-downs in which a detainee was grabbed from a cell, clothes cut off, hooded, and dragged up and down a dirt hallway. >> the case in which a prisoner's lunch tray consistle of hummus, pasta and nuts were pure rayepured and rectally inf. (laughter) >> jon: could i get a reaction shot of how i'm feeling right now? (laughter) you know, it's funny. i just made a movie about a guy who triumphed over inhuman conditions in imprisonment, and i don't think they did half of that to him. i don't think it worked because he was innocent. >> of the 119 individuals found to have been detained in the program, the committee found 26 were

the biggest is senator dianne feinstein. she pushed for this report, it is her report, it was commissioned by her committee and we'd like to start with showing you a reenactment of a waterboarding. the senate report describes waterboarding as a series of near drownings, saying it was employed more often than the cia has previously admitted. the report also detailed sleep deprivation for up to a week, so-called rectal feedings, beatings and death threats. dianne feinstein pushed for it to be released. >> history will judge us by our willingness to face an ugly truth and say never again. >> reporter: it was just months after the september 11th attacks that u.c. berkeley professor yu penned a series of writings. >> my opinion is they went over the line a lot of times. simply waterboarding one detainee 183 times, it's gone way beyond the intention of this program. >> and that is not really the crux of the issue, says baer. >> more important than that, was it effective? i have seen nothing so far of solid evidence that torture sa

dianne feinstein, this is dianne feinstein's passion, she's going to be leaving the chairmanship becauseof control of the senate. this was her last hurrah to get this out, there but i talked to a cia agent earlier today, he said she's been briefed on this ever since day one and blessed it all the way along. all of a sudden, she's surprised? charles: blame bush, you know, somehow appease our enemies, when i hear the president talk about low standing around the world because of things like this, i don't care if this is our low standing around the world, let it get lower. >> the biggest torture they brought the guys in and forced them to eat a subway sandwich that had bologna on it. you can tell the balance of power is messed up right now. >> it was obviously political theater, we had gruber political theater, but i just -- i don't know where we're going with this, and again, i pray to hollywood, i'm tired, between the climate films, everything is climate, subplot between that and the torture thing, i haven't seen a good movie. >> why do we need to know this? charles: why did it come out to

brennan is drawing a sharp rebuttal from the committee chair, dianne feinstein.k with a former cia spokesperson bill harlow. she was tweeting -- i don't know if it was her or her staff -- >> i think it was her staff. >> they were tweeting during the course of the press conference, which went on for 45 minutes, tweeted this "cia says unknowable if we could have gotten the intel other ways. studies show it is knowable. cia had info before torture." in other words, she's saying that there's no positive benefits from the enhanced interrogation, that that information could have gotten in other ways -- what the director of the cia said today, it's possible that they could have gotten it in other ways but that's not knowable. >> she's wrong again. in fact, if you go to the minority study, cia study which is on ciasaveslives.com, you'll find that there was valuable information which was gotten from them. maybe if we had the luxury of time, we might have developed another way of getting this information. we didn't have the luxury of time. whe we had a ticking time bomb si
