We provided an exclusive look at one of the freed detainees' drawings of his torturous time in a CIA prison. They were shown at his sentencing proceedings but had never been made public.

Dianne Feinstein was an intelligence hawk — and she took on the CIA in a campaign that changed America’s national security conversation for good. Her statement against torture & for accountability may end up being the strongest part of her legacy. huffpost.com/entry/feinstein…

If you want to better understand Sen. Dianne Feinstein's role in exposing the CIA's torture program, watch 2019's The Report (@PrimeVideo), which reveals the lengths she and then-SSCI staffer @DanielJJonesUS went to hold the agency accountable:

On a key part of Sen. Feinstein's legacy, we'll also speak with @DanielJJonesUS, the lead investigator for the 2014 CIA torture report, which Feinstein shepherded.
