Which in of itself is an offence/crime according to the ICC stature.
Article 70 - Offences against the administration of justice
- The Court shall have jurisdiction over the following offences against its administration of justice when committed intentionally:
[…] (d) Impeding, intimidating or corruptly influencing an official of the Court for the purpose of forcing or persuading the official not to perform, or to perform improperly, his or her duties;
(e) Retaliating against an official of the Court on account of duties performed by that or another official;
Genocide Joe and Apartheid Anthony committing more international crimes. The US is a rouge state that does not care about international law, I hope for regime change soon
The US doesn’t even recognize the ICC to begin with.
Russia isn’t a state member of the ICC either but that didn’t stop the US and allies from enthusiastically pushing for the ICC to issue a warrant for Putin’s arrest.
There’s some academic debate about whether the ICC theoretically has jurisdiction over non-states members, but realistically nobody is going to do shit against either Russia or the US.
Shit headline. “US dictator Joe Biden threatens ICC officials, breaking international law” is much more succinct
👏
death to america
I thought Biden supported the ICC when it was trying to prosecute Russian officials?
It’s a consistent policy. Biden supports actions that are in the interest of the regime and opposes those that aren’t.
You don’t even have to stretch it to that, it’s consistent because it’s supporting the aggressor and ethnic cleanser in both cases. Russia isn’t the aggressor, Ukraine is, doing ethnic cleansing in the Donbas.
If you want to draw equivalencies between the two Russia isn’t Israel, they’re like a much more powerful Yemen.
good point
Oh they do, Blinken apparently just out and said that this week. The party demands that you hold two condtradictory beliefs blah blah blah boorwell.
Which was doubly hilarious, neither the US, nor Russia, recognize the ICC. Ergo Biden can’t support anything the ICC does, nor can the ICC do anything regarding Russia.
How do you sanction a body of which you have no part ?
Republicans have not indicated who or what they would sanction, but US officials expect the measures would target prosecutor Karim Khan and others involved in the investigation.
The sanctions could be similar to those imposed by the Trump administration on the ICC’s then chief prosecutor Fatou Bensouda and the court’s head of jurisdiction Phakiso Mochochoko for their investigation into alleged US war crimes in Afghanistan. The sanctions froze their American assets and banned their travel to the US. The Biden administration has not yet indicated what kind of sanctions it would support.
The sanctions could be similar to those imposed by the Trump administration on
But Biden is totally different, guys
The lesser of two evils because at least trump was funny.
Ah, persecution. Nice touch.
Somebody ought to reply to a US travel ban with “Oh no, I wanted to do a

It is sweet potato pie, a Thanksgiving dish.
Mostly roasted sweet potatoes mixed with butter and sometimes spices. Then marshmallows are put on top and it’s broiled to lightly brown the marshmallows. Served as a sweet and savory side dish.
I’ve had it with mild chipotle spice, there are many American abominations but that can be quite good
The usual culprit in making American food abominable is lack of spices. Soul food is distinctly American and an example of doing it right.
AKA the abomination that convinced 99% of all americans that sweet potato is only a dessert
“Trump will come after yooooooou!”
Bruv, Biden has declared me to be a terrorist for like five separate reasons, several of which used to be core parts of the dnc plank. You’re not making a case for your fascist being lesser.
Ok but you have to remember to vote for the
lesserother Hitler in November!
Do it you ghouls pull off the tattered scraps of mask in front of the whole world

“Well of course the ICC is criminals, Jack! It’s in their name! We have to do something!” - Biden
How close are we to actually acting on the Hague Act? Feels really close.
If Europe actually arrests Israeli officials that might happen.
I hope they do it. I hope they scuttle NATO forever over Israel. It would be the funniest thing ever.
What happpend to “International Rules based Order” that ‘Murica is always talkin’ bout?
This order may be international but it sure ain’t based, I tell you hwhat.
Gotta cut off resources to Arthas. How else do we stop him when the time comes to raid ice crown citadel?
Sorry, played WoW for way too long 😔
