to be fair, the republicans conspired with the iranians in secret to hold the hostages until after the election in exchange for money which the us used to buy arms for terrorists in central america.
The Ayatollah buying scud missiles from Donald Trump Rumsfeld and Oliver North was crazy, when you consider how much the GOP say they hate Iran and love Reagan.
But Tip O’Neal and Ted Kennedy and a young Senator from Delaware whose name I can’t recall brushed it all under the table. The sentence for these henous crimes landed on North’s shoulders and totaled
a three-year suspended prison term, two years probation, $150,000 in fines, and 1,200 hours of community service
But even that was too much.
with the help of the American Civil Liberties Union, North appealed his conviction to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. On July 20, 1990, the D.C. Circuit vacated North’s convictions on the ground that witnesses in his trial might have been impermissibly affected by his immunized congressional testimony.

The Aristocrats!
That’s gotta be a bit of a smudge on the ACLU
They’ve got a very checkered past. Very much a “rights are for whites” organization in a lot of cases.
Backing Klan and Nazi parades while dropping off the map in the face of the Stonewall Marches, the anti-war movements, and BLM.
They’ve been near useless when it comes to abortion rights, police brutality, and refugee rights, as far as I’ve seen.
