The Trump administration's assault on the rule of law continues. Despite rhetoric about protecting Americans, the anti-ICC crusade is mostly motivated by a desire to shield Israeli officials from accountability. (Rubio's political ambitions may be relevant here.) www.reuters.com/world/us-imp...

EXCLUSIVE: US imposes sanctions on ICC hours after former judge wins Nobel Peace Prize

The Trump administration has long been hostile to the court and has previously imposed sanctions on its prosecutors and judges.

Hmmm...what is it called when state security forces detain someone then conceal their whereabouts?

As a reminder, not only does POTUS covet the Nobel Prize but his administration is waging a crusade to destroy the ICC, primarily in order to shield Israeli officials from accountability.

There's a through line between the celebratory footage of detainee abuse from CECOT, the boat strikes videos, and this planned snuff film of the Nidal Hasan execution.

I suspect the issue of whether Rubio qualifies as "white" or as a "heritage American" will feature in the GOP primary if he runs for president again.

Personally, (if the evidence supports it) I like the precedent of prosecuting national leaders for serious international crimes.

Shockingly, I have not heard anyone at this conference refer to artificial intelligence as "super intelligence."

Of course. The execution will be a source of content.

Raising additional questions about the quality of the intel used for the lethal US boat strikes. (Which would be illegal regardless of the intel.)

He must be thinking of his illegal war, particularly when he threatened that "a whole civilization will die tonight."

On October 7th 2023, it was clear that Israel would respond to Hamas's attack & atrocities with a ferocious & bloody war of vengeance in Gaza. Less obvious was that the Biden administration would not only fail to force an end to that war of vengeance but continue to lawlessly enable it throughout.

Nah, things are going great in the national security space. Why do you ask?

"I can do whatever I want, if I want." Today is the 10th anniversary of the public revelation of Trump's 'Access Hollywood' comments.

Trump Might Order Another Iran Strike Before the Midterms

To be fair, plenty of committees could have jurisdiction over this.

Administration officials may resist congressional subpoenas, but private individuals may be somewhat differently situated. And possibly even willing to talk.

Could be some good reasons that the US Constitution doesn't authorize one person to take the country to war on a whim.

Nothing says "deserves a Nobel Peace Prize" like launching unnecessary wars. Funnily enough, according to the State Department one of the eight wars Trump supposedly ended (in 2025) was the war between Israel and Iran. So much for that.
