Rubio vowing to dismantle the international criminal court.

Wonder why.

Because they have an arrest warrant for Netanyahu and the former Israeli defence minister.

Just the US being Israel's dog.

1) thats not how it works.
2) it doesn't matter anyway because Congress won't do anything either way.

If you think about it, they are representatives of the people, and if the people won't do anything then neither will they.

My personal favorite story atm is the Tariff refunds.

No one is even acting as if the refunds would somehow end up with the people that paid them and all you hear is just crickets (and how some trump cronies profit some more of it).

The american public is staggeringly docile. I feel like at this point, even the Germans would be out in force...

Oh, come on Velr, it's just $81 billion being refunded, that's nothing, look at all the good the tariffs did, like alienate allies, spike inflation, allowed Trump to do insider trading just before he dropped the announcement etc.

Similarly, he recently awarded the Reflecting pool job to a joke of a guy with a joke of a company (Greenwater lol) and then, because he is a lazy POS who believes that you have a certain amount of heartbeats before you die, he decided to have his motorcade drive through it:

[image loading]


Obviously fucking with the sealant, for which he later got people arrested and called them terrorists.

Now the job will allow them to launder even more millions, the Greenwater guy will subcontract a competent company and split the $ 100 million extra with Trump, US citizens will pay for it and Fox news will praise the president for his wisdom.
So, are you a pessimist? - On my better days. Are you a nihilist? - Not as much as I should be.

They will probably have an arrest warrant for a few of Trump’s croonies when this horrible face finally ends.

Pretty sure the ICC doesn't give a shit about US pardons.

Ofcourse the main issue is the US not recognising the ICC, and a Bush era law that the US declares war on the Netherlands if the ICC tries to enforce them.

Of course it's not how it works but it's amusing just the same.
