Pompeo: I’m Not Restarting Enhanced Interrogation Even with an Order from Trump

‘I can’t imagine that I would be asked that by the President-elect or then President’
By Grabien Staff

EXCERPT:

FEINSTEIN: “I want to ask one follow-up question to what the Chairman asked, and that’s dealing with those enhanced interrogation techniques. And that is that if you were ordered by the President to restart the CIA’s use of enhanced interrogation techniques that fall outside of the Army Field Manual, would you comply?”
POMPEO: “Senator, absolutely not. Moreover, I can’t imagine that I would be asked that by the President-elect or then President. I voted for the change that put the Army Field Manual in place as a member of Congress. I understand that law very, very quickly and I’m also deeply aware that any changes to that will come through Congress and President.”
