Report: CIA nominee to publicly pledge not to restart detention programs

WASHINGTON - US President Donald Trump's choice for CIA chief is privately assuring senators that she will not reinstitute a detention and interrogation program and will make the pledge publicly at her May 9 confirmation hearing, two sources said on Friday.
Deputy CIA Director Gina Haspel plans to give the commitment in her "opening statement and she has been telling members that as well," a congressional aide told Reuters on condition of anonymity.
