CIA Report Puts U.S. in Danger

Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein is hell bent in releasing a report that gets to the dirty part of the work that the CIA did in the years immediately following the attacks on 9/11.  The report is said to illustrate the techniques that were used to interrogate terror suspects.

Many in the Intelligence Community, not just ours, but around the world have warned that this report will be used against the us.  It will put Americans around the globe in danger and will be used by Terror Groups today in recruiting.

So, what is the point in releasing the report?  What is the end game?

Sen. Feinstein says it is to show the things we did and to never let it happen again.  If we have already stopped it and decided that is not how we want to do things, why release the report?

FOX News:
The White House and President Obama are backing the decision to release the report, despite warnings from lawmakers and some inside the administration that it could lead to a backlash against Americans.
This sounds like a partisan political move to me.  Sounds like they don't care much about what this could do to America, our Citizens or our Safety, they just want to release the gory details.

There is even reports of members of the White House's own inner circle not on the same page with this release.

CNN:
In a phone call Friday, Secretary of State John Kerry asked Feinstein to consider the broader implications of the timing of the report's release, said State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki.
"A lot is going on in the world, and he wanted to make sure that foreign policy implications were being appropriately factored into timing," Psaki said. "These include our ongoing efforts against ISIL and the safety of Americans being held hostage around the world."
This seems to be how the Democrats and this White House have worked for the last 6 years.  The end results don't really matter as they long as they get their way.
