Call to Action to STOP the War on Yemen April 10, 2017

His legal opinions further the illegal agenda of America's deporter-in-chief Trump. "While Trump may not know or care about the legal precedents behind his actions, his lawyers surely do, and you can be sure they'll be citing Yoo's work on the unitary executive theory," wrote Heather Digby Parton to Salon.
