White House Caves on Defense Bill Veto Threat →
wilwheaton:
The President will not veto the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) over provisions codifying the use of indefinite military detention on American soil.
The NDAA is profoundly unconstitutional, and destroys the fundamental principle of Due Process that was part of the founding of this country.
I expect this kind of tyranny from Republicans, and we saw a whole lot of it from...
