“Did any CIA agent get indicted for torturing people? No. Did any CIA agent get indicted for destroying the videotapes that showed the torture? No. Did any CIA agent get indicted for murdering prisoners in Abu Graib prison in Iraq? No. We can debate whether it was wise and prudent to call the CIA into existence to fight the Cold War. What is indisputable is the fact that the Cold War ended in 1989 while the CIA continued onward. It’s time for Americans to do what they should have done a long time ago—abolish, not reform, the CIA. It’s time to put a stop to the lying, murdering, assassinating, spying, torturing, and detaining. They have no place in America.”
