Sen. Dianne Feinstein is wrong, Trump's CIA nominee is popular with European allies

There’s a sad irony to Sen. Dianne Feinstein’s claim that President Trump’s pick for CIA director is viewed poorly in Europe.

That nominee, Gina Haspel, needs Senate confirmation if she is to become the agency’s first female chief. Still, her name should be an easy yes vote; she is supported by the vast majority of CIA professionals and former directors. And on CBS’ “Face the Nation,” last Sunday, Feinstein referenced Haspel by saying “I know that she is talented.”
