John Yoo, a Berkeley Law professor and former Justice Department official in the George W. Bush administration
It’s insane that a guy like this who tried to get government torture legalized in the United States has now had a long, well-paying, distinguished career and is being referred to as “a Berkeley Law professor and former Justice Department official” instead of “torture guy.”
I guess having zero morals and ethics really does pay off.
It’s ridiculous how much John Yoo’s name comes up in media interviews. It’s as infuriating as seeing Newt Gingrich or Grover Norquist’s name crop up in every other article in the Washington Post, who scrambles to get their opinions on all things political. It’s all one big circle-jerk of mainstream media, greedy politicians, and billionaires.
