I've heard liberals or democrats talk about this a bit actually (not to stick up for (economic) liberals) - i guess it depends on the intended audience (and the particular dem/lib)
Here's abby's video which 'broke' the story (though i think it was well-known that he was a lawyer there before this video) (i thought i'd posted this when it came out but might have forgot):
Re: Ron DeSantis accused of torture against Guantanamo detainees
It amuses my simple mind that the headline could have been cut off to read "Ron DeSantis accused of illegal acts of torture against Guantanamo detainees when he was a Navy JAG off".
I doubt this will deter his target demographic and it's certainly not going to become a legal problem for him. I mean they made Haspel the head of the CIA after she copped to torturing people....no amount of cajolery, and no attempts at ethical or social seduction, can eradicate from my heart a deep burning hatred for the Tory Party...So far as I am concerned they are lower than vermin.
