"There has been a fascinating phenomenon over the last few weeks. Those who know the true Gina Haspel - who worked with her, who served with her, who helped her confront terrorism, Russia and countless other threats to our nation - they almost uniformly support her," said Ryan Trapani, a CIA spokesman. "That is true for people who disagree about nearly everything else. There is a reason for that. When the American people finally have a chance to see the true Gina Haspel on Wednesday, they will understand why she is so admired and why she is and will be a great leader for this agency."
