Trump's regime will end one day and then there will be two options for Americans: hold those to account internally or have the world do it for you. The MAGA agenda is aimed at removing internal judicial structure while undermining foreign capacity for justice.

Hegseth is the Cornell 7 with power. Hegseth settled a sexual assault accusation for $50k. The woman who said he assaulted her reported the matter to police, but no charges were ever filed vs Hegseth. She told an emergency room nurse that she may have been drugged and raped. The Jane Doe of her day.
