What's interesting is that MSM articles put her in London, but not in 2017.

Gina Haspel, the CIA pick: Russia, counter-terrorism and Crufts

 

FTA:

 

Ms Haspel was posted to London in 2008. She was well-regarded, according to British officials, who saw her as a forceful and effective advocate for the agency.

 

"She listened as well as lectured," says one former British official. On her arrival, British spies wanted to win her over and initially struggled to find a way of trying to make a personal connection (she is a fan of Johnny Cash but that did not help much).

 

Someone suggested she was a dog lover. As a result, an MI6 officer was given the mission of taking her to Crufts, the dog show. Whether or not it had any impact on Ms Haspel's attitude to the UK is unknown but it did earn the officer the nickname Fido from his colleagues. . .

 

. . . Ms Haspel left in 2011 but then returned for an unusual second posting in 2014 until 2017. There is speculation that at least one of her London postings was to keep her away from inquiries into post-9/11 practices taking place in Washington.

 

She returned to the US in February 2017. She was away during the drawing up of the intelligence community's assessment of Russian interference in the US election, but did play a key role in the recent expulsion of Russian diplomats.

 

When CIA Director Mike Pompeo was away, she took a lead role in briefing President Trump.

 

She has widespread support from across the US national security community, including those like former CIA Director John Brennan who have been fierce critics of Donald Trump. One reason is professional pride - it is rare for a career officer to rise up through the ranks all the way to the top of the CIA (the last was William Colby in the 1970s) and supporters say her experience means she can hit the ground running.

 

But another reason may be more practical. If not Gina Haspel, the question is, who else would Donald Trump pick to run CIA?

 

"What I say to folks who for one reason or another want to oppose Gina - [is] 'Be careful what you ask for'. Who might you get if you don't get this career professional?" former CIA director Michael Hayden said on a recent Intelligence Matters podcast.
