That is a good part (he admits it to Counselor Troy). It shows that when human beings are tortured, they will say anything to make it stop. That is exactly the argument that Trump doesn't understand - torture is not a reliable information gathering method.They cut out the best part where he admits to Riker(or someone) that at the very end, he really believed he could see 5 lights.
The last two attorneys general were as political as any in the history of our country. That's disgusting.It is ironic [disgusting] that Sessions is going to lead the Justice Department, a part of the government that originated in order to force the south to allow blacks to vote after the 15th amendment!
Do you feel tortured by the prospect of eight years of a Trump presidency and decades of GOP dominance if he is succesful?That is a good part (he admits it to Counselor Troy). It shows that when human beings are tortured, they will say anything to make it stop. That is exactly the argument that Trump doesn't understand - torture is not a reliable information gathering method.
Meet the worst political team ever assembled—an inner circle of outcasts, opportunists, and extremists with nowhere else to go.
