in several papers (not just the liberal ones) that the current administration is trying to pass legislation that redefines what torture actually is. This is presumably because what we're doing now is in violation of the Geneva Convention. They are also including language in that legislation that prevents themselves from being prosecuted for using torture and violating the GC. It must be nice to know that if you break a law, you can just change the law.
