Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

One of the first articles I ever wrote when I began writing in 2005 was about the case that was a key reason I started: the Bush/Cheney attempt to imprison **US citizens** on US soil with no trial or charges, based *solely on the decree of the President*: https://t.co/ExEQiAsDTT — PolitiTweet.org

John Yoo, along with top Bush officials like David Addington & led by Cheney, created a new legal architecture to place the Preisdent explicitly above the law, rendering it grotesque to watch the Bush/Cheney operatives who defended it all prance around as rule-of-law champions. — PolitiTweet.org

"John Yoo is a psychopath" and "George Bush was at least respectful of democratic norms" are inconsistent.

The post-9/11 legal edifice was built by promulgating new legal theories (advocated for decades by Cheney) that nothing, not even laws, can constrain the Preisdent. I called it an “Ideology of Lawlessness.” Your favorite #NeverTrump stars defended this: https://t.co/DCuugygZEg — PolitiTweet.org
