    All recent presents have committed war crimes. Do you want Biden to go after Obama, and himself or only Republicans?

      Agreed, but let’s be real, the actual torture signed off by the Bush administration was on another level of absolute cruelty.

      I’d like to see them all tried for it. Obama didn’t just let Bush off the hook, he took the worst excesses of his administration and codified and legalized them.

          I mean, do you remember when Torture Black Site Head of Operations Gina Haspel got made the head of the CIA and the media made a big stink about how it was “feminist progress?”

          Yeah, because feminism is 100% when we have more women in charge of torture facilities!
