13 November 2020 - truth commission
< yesterday --
tomorrow >
Remember when Obama magnanimously declined to prosecute illegal
approvals of torture in the previous administration? That undermined
the rule of law and helped normalize impunity for government officials,
which made it easier for Trump to capture as much of the government
as he has. How about a truth commission that offers amnesty to all
who testify fully, and passes its findings on to prosecutors for all
who do not? Because Trump is pathologically incapable of testifying
fully.
