The president-elect has assured us that his country doesn't torture and he will ensure that this is true. Another question the media should ask is whether this also means the U.S. will no longer transfer prisoners to countries such as Egypt, Jordan, and Saudi Arabia in order for them to be tortured? Rendition, after all, began with the Clinton administration so it's not just Republicans who are implicated in torture.
