Reposted by Ankylodad Chris Hayes @chrislhayes.bsky.social · 21hPretty clear to me there’s a very good case against this man for mass murder, and I’m saying that in as measured a fashion as I can. He’s order the killing of 234 people under no plausible war or legal justification. I am skeptical he will ever face legal accountability for til his but he should. 47994552088
