of armed services are demanding a briefing from the national top intelligence officer james clapper alomong others to expla why the administration was so confident they got everything they could from him. i found in visiting guantanamo tan min visiting afghanistan we have ways of getting information. we have people highly trained and can sit down and get these people s confidence and they learn a lot or can learn a lot unless we shut them off with attorneys. prosecutors presented a 22 statement about him this month. congressman mckeon said he has not been briefed on the content so it is not known if anything what he provided to investigators before he read his rights. thank you ainsley. it s like the movie fight club. ya ll remember that one. this is actually happening in real life.
