      MinnesotaGoddam…California…No no no no no no! This isn’t adding up at all! Minnesota isn’t in California!!! Unless it is now…they always said California was going to break away from the mainland, and drift into the ocean. I haven’t been watching the news lately. Maybe I missed that story.

      HEY WAIT A SECOND!!! MINNESOTA ISN’T IN THE OCEAN!!! HEY EVERYBODY!!! THIS GUYS A BIG OL’ LIAR!!! JUST TELLING LIES!! ON THE INTERNET!!! THINK OF THE CHILDREN!!! SOMEBODY SHOULD START A LEGAL BILL WHERE WE SAY WE’RE PROTECTING THE CHILDREN FROM THE WILD WANDERING ISLAND OF CALIFORNIA, but really we just do evil stuff instead…

        We should call the bill the Demonstrating to Ourselves and Our Friends that Usa is Safe Act, or the DOOFUS Act. One more thing named after me!

        Also Nina’s Mississippi Goddam was going through my mind when all the shit started in Minneapolis. I haven’t felt a username quite as appropriate for the times for me since then.

      please god yes I want to see Stephen Miller and Russell Vought go to prison so badly you’ve no idea. Trump will never see consequences for his treason, and I’ve made my peace with that, but these are younger men with lots of years ahead of them, and I want those years to s u c k .

          yes, prison. long, hard years where you get lots of time to reflect on just how badly you’ve fucked up, how you’ve ruined the lives of countless others, just for the sake of making a buck and pleasing the orange tyrant. And when you’re not reflecting, remember, this is an American prison they’d be held in, so the rest of your time is spent dodging rape and violence from fellow inmates and guards.

          A noose is too good for some people in the current regime. Miller and Vought are two of them.

      Correct, and the ICC is in The Hague, which is in the Netherlands. So this is just confirmation that they are willing to carry out the necessary surrounding logistics for such a big tribunal against a powerful head of state.

      … And as the other comment said, I really would like to see Trump and Netanyahu right next to Putin.

          This is one of the things any subsequent President could do to help restore international relations after this shit show.

          Repeal the Hague Invasion Act, re-sign the Rome Statute and submit it to the Senate for ratification as we should have done in the first place. It was signed under Clinton originally and the Hague Invasion Act was passed under Bush after 9/11.

          Allowing international oversight of war crimes tribunals against the US military would go a long way to help fix relations.

      The EU proposal actually talks about this. ICC has no jurisdiction over Crime of Agression. Actual starting of the war. Since by accident/intentionally nobody gave ICC that jurisdiction/ Russia is hardly going to volunteer to agree to give it jurisdiction

      ICC can handle the individual war crimes, crimes against humanity.

      While most of Russia’s war crimes can be prosecuted in other courts, there is no legal entity authorized to rule on the crime of aggression — first coined to prosecute the Nazis for World War II — which means a dedicated tribunal needed to be established.
