The first and maybe hardest is Guantanamo. The 2001 AUMF is, sort of absurdly, the legal basis for holding detainees there. There are still 40 at Gitmo, and the US can’t detain them without a legal framework, however flimsy. — PolitiTweet.org

As Biden pledges to repeal (!!!) the AUMFs that have undergirded the forever war and executive warpowers since 2001, worth considering the three big hurdles that stymied Obama when he tried the same thing c. 2013-15. — PolitiTweet.org

Obama tried to relocate/release all Gitmo detainees so he could close it, and got pretty far. But he couldn’t move the last few dozen without Congressional acquiescence – e.g., to put them in mainland federal prisons – but Congress blocked him with big bipartisan majorities. — PolitiTweet.org
