Thank You ACLU!
I think a big thanks to the ACLU is in order.



Under the Freedom of Information Act, the CIA has been forced by the ACLU to release its report on Bush-era interrogation operations written by former CIA Inspector General John Helgerson. Though still heavily redacted, the 2004 study may contain new insights into the closely guarded torture practices under the Bush administration.

The entire report is posted below

5. I have not been a member in years, but plan to rejoin next Wednesday
And I'd do it sooner but I have to wait for the next Social Security check to come in.

8. My recurring monthly donation stopped. I'm going to re-up today.
My credit card was cancelled and reissued when it got compromised. The ACLU's website has no provision for changing the credit card, and I never go around to re-signing up.

Today's the day.
