    Yoo is a war criminal and should be behind bars. Instead he’s a pundit in faux news.

      Trump is a nightmare for sure, but I’d argue every US president from at least the past 80 years is a war criminal who should be behind bars.

        They were referring to the person quoted in the article:

        California-Berkeley law professor John Yoo, who served in former President George W. Bush’s Department of Justice

        He wrote the Torture Memos, among other things, which is probably why the previous commenter would call him out as a war criminal.
