They took jurisdiction away from any outside courts and they pardon themselves of all their crimes from 911 to forever. basically that means you can not put us on trial for any of our past treatments of prisoners. This is because the supreme court said torture was illegal which should be a no shit issue to begin with. Thus they moved what they do away from the courts and not allow the normal one to charge anyone and set up their own courts (military commissions) and the new one of course is their own
appointed by the DOD thus a kangaroo court like Stalinist Russia.
this was in the second article PJW wrote about it.

Liberal opposition mainly centered around the morality – or, rather, immorality – of torture, but the debate largely ignored the ticking time-bomb at the heart of this legislation, scheduled to go off, perhaps, in tandem with some future crisis, e.g., another terrorist attack on American soil: the redefinition of the "unlawful combatant" concept that lays the foundations for this administration's reconstruction of the gulag. Here is the new, broadened definition, as enunciated in the legislation recently passed by the House:

"The term 'unlawful enemy combatant' means – (i) a person who has engaged in hostilities or who has purposefully and materially supported hostilities against the United States or its co-belligerents who is not a lawful enemy combatant (including a person who is part of the Taliban, al-Qaeda, or associated forces); or (ii) a person who, before, on, or after the date of the enactment of the Military Commissions Act of 2006, has been determined to be an unlawful enemy combatant by a Combatant Status Review Tribunal or another competent tribunal established under the authority of the president or the secretary of defense."

It doesn't say "alien" or "terrorist," although it specifically includes members of the Taliban and al-Qaeda. It says "person" – any person, including American citizens.
