  1. I hope the people who didn’t vote because of Gaza are happy with the result.

  2. Trump just hates judges whether it be domestic ones or international because he’s a fucking criminal himself and just a plain ol’ scumbag.

  3. It’s a beautiful stroke of Republican doublespeak to say that the ICC is both a weak, useless court that has no authority to prosecute anyone, and also, how dare the ICC look into those things which might be disgraceful or recognized as against international war conventions which the US/Israel signed. 

    Why do they care so much if the ICC doesn’t carry any weight? 

  4. The first time somebody shits in your pool, that’s unprecedented. If they then shit in 10 neighbors’ pools over the course of 2 weeks, those aren’t unprecedented. Atrocities, yes, each and every one. But not unprecedented. 

    This is just Trump and his cronies shitting in the 94,104th pool. Maybe we’ll have a little party at 100,000, but none of these moves is unprecedented. 

  5. I doubt the Prime Minister of Israel needs the US’s help in this instance.

  6. Nothing says “Party of Law and Order” like sanctioning judges.

  7. In response, “ICC judges issue arrest warrants for Trump and Vance.”

    One can dream, right?

  8. >In 2020 they were involved in an appeals chamber decision that allowed the ICC prosecutor to open a formal investigation into alleged war crimes by American troops in Afghanistan.

    It’s not just Israel, two of the judges appear connected to the Afghanistan investigation.

  9. How to say that you have something to hide without actually saying it
