Rep. Mike Rogers (R-Mich.), who chairs the House Intelligence Committee, warned Sunday that the impending release of a report on the use of torture by the CIA would cause "violence and death" overseas. "I think this is a terrible idea," he said. Secretary of State John Kerry has also asked Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), who is in charge of the report, to be careful about when she releases report, although the Obama administration supports going public with its results.
