Haspel: “I will never, ever” allow a return to 9/11 detention & interrogation program. “My moral compass is strong,” learned from her dad who is watching, she tells senators. I would not allow CIA to do things that are immoral even if POTUS orders it, she adds.

5) It IS an appropriate place to ask Haspel about her priorities as director including how she views the biggest threats to our country (remember briefed on worldwide threats a few weeks ago - said RUSSIA still interfering)
