“US admits human rights shortcomings in UN report,” reads the Washington Post headline. Mind you, this report was for the U.N. Human Rights Council, a body that has a Cuban as a vice president and includes among its members China, Libya, Russia, “Saudi” Arabia, and Mauritania.

And, of course, the ACLU was not satisfied:

The American Civil Liberties Union praised the administration for engaging with the council but said the report neglected to address key areas where the U.S. has not met its human rights obligations. Those areas include inhumane prison conditions, racial disparities in death penalty cases, and abuses in the immigration detention system.
