I hope the ICC does *not* cave! If the Republicans in Congress don’t have the spine to hold that monster accountable, I hope the ICC will have the spine to hold him accountable!

Karen Brownfield's avatar

And others in this administration

Sue's avatar

Notably Hegseth and Noem. If we have a functioning court system by 2029, throw Bondi and Patel to them.

Elena's avatar

Miller and Vaught go too!

Fraser's avatar

Yup! Rissian "open window" salute for those 2!!

Patris's avatar

The entire cabinet actually and GOP congressional leaders who sit on their hands now.

Sue's avatar

I haven't, but I want her tried by a domestic federal court for abusing the DoJ.

Fraser's avatar

Is that before of after the tar-and-feathers ceremony?

kdubya55's avatar

All of them. Dont leave a single one out

lat428's avatar

A clean sweep.

Haliborn's avatar

They better not cave!!L!if they don’t charge THESE nazi fuckers, they might as well just shut the entire court down!! Djt thinks he can bully EVERYONE! Tell him to fuck right off.

Jill B.'s avatar

Totally agree 100%!!!!

emilia bryant's avatar

Hell no they need to prosecute all of them

Elizabeth Lampert's avatar

And worse. In the bs with Putin, tRump now stands with Putin against Europe and UK. My nasty take is tRump is on his knees mouth open in front of Putin!

Karen Brownfield's avatar

This broke me. The Ukrainians are wonderful people. What on earth is in those files?

Terry's avatar

Perhaps proof that Trump is a pedophile who likes little girls and little boys too. I saw a post today where he has paid off parents of victims like eight! If so, Burn in hell Trump.

Considering he and his entire administration and cabinet are russian assets, yes that’s pretty much it so to speak. But they have been infiltrating our country for decades now and they finally found their stooge who’s so greedy for money they can easily manipulate him into getting what they want. Mark Cuban is a huge donor but even he’s said in interviews how stupid djt is!! The real enemy within is in fact djt and all of the assets spread out all over our country and they’ve been preparing to destroy Americans. That is NOT a ballroom but it IS a nuclear shelter for him and Lord knows who else but that is being fitted with the highest tech and security so that he will not leave the People’s House this time at all because that’s his pseudo fortress. Not trying to scare anyone but I assure you that is NOT a ballroom!!! He will set off the nuclear football and laugh with his glee at America being destroyed and the people not able to do anything about it. I’m telling you keep an eye on the independent media and I’m biased towards Aaron because he really is humble and he listens to us. He is one heck of a journalist I’ve seen in a very long time.

P. S. Does anyone know what I need to do to make my member badge visible? Thank you in advance for your help and support!

Not a far fetched idea and I’m not a conspiracy theorist, but the size of the proposed building according to what I had read was 3 floors with the bunker. Definitely sounds like a possibility.

Michelle Boydston's avatar

I don’t believe in them either but it makes sense for a lot of reasons.

• He’s Negative -38 in a recent Gallup Poll

• He’s been shamed and humiliated and laughed at by the majority of the country and other countries on the world stage

• He’s got a very low self esteem hence the narcissistic sociopath psychotic and even Sadist personality traits

• He’s been convicted in federal court and has 34 x felony convictions which he should be sitting his a$$ in Leavenworth or deported to the motherland and lose his passport.

• He’s incited violence at our Capitol and told his supporters to fight like hell and sat with glee watching like it was a WRF fight in Vegas and received no immediate arrest and prosecution thanks to McConnell and Garland

• He’s bought himself a SCOTUS6 ticket to pass go and collect as many acts of violence he wants and Cart Blanche to do whatever he wants with no consequences

And on and on on his Retribution Tour 2.0!

He’s not going to leave the People’s House no matter what because he’s got grandiose thoughts that he should be a king and we can all eat the proverbial cake. He hates this country and has done nothing out of good will because let’s face it, there’s no good in him.

I will be sending letters to my GQP Rep and Senators, Hawley 🙄, Schmidt 🙄, and Mark Alford that We the People demand an investigation committee of transparency in seeing every single square inch of this so called ballroom. And that’s another part of irony and it’s in plain sight: Ball and room… he holds the nuclear footBall and he’s building a new “room” for his impenetrable fortress to protect himself mind you become let’s face it, he is the only person who matters right?!! 🙄 And I want my GQP Congress members to call for a Congressional committee hearing about the building plans and to see every part of the plans to the actual items that are planned for this building, or more like his own nuclear fortress. If we’re paying for it then we have the right to see everything our money is paying for.

In summary he’s very egocentric and has the brain the size of a pea. He has been embarrassed on the global stage and he’s embarrassed with shame with everyone who laughs at him and he gets personal sadist pleasure out of acts of violence and revenge.

If I’m wrong I’m wrong but this I seriously don’t think so and it’s mind blowing to think but a very powerful weapon he’s going to use for multiple purposes. Melania might want to run for the hills because she’s not going to want to spend time with him in his bunker. That we know to be fact. I’m happy to be wrong but I really don’t think I am. They need to stop this immediately because the stakes are too high for we the people. He’s been a failure at pretty much everything in his life and I truly believe that there’s nothing he wouldn’t love better than to do whatever it takes to exact his revenge.

The bunker under the East Wing was where the escape dungeon was for the President, Vice President and other govt. officials to escape to keep the government running in case of an attack on the government. That bunker was destroyed I think when the East Wing was for the ballroom.

Terry's avatar

Much of his financial and word-smithing comes from the White Christian Nationalists who authored the Project 2025. When they saw Trump, they jumped on him in a hot second. His entire Regime is riddled with wealthy home grown members. You honestly think Trump could weaken and destroy our democracy in less than a year on in his own? They are embedded in the Supreme Court. This was their 30 year plan.

Elena's avatar

I like the thought of Bubba waiting for him in the prison showers.

Michelle Boydston's avatar

That rarely happens but the thought of people who would shank him in a shower, that’s reality. There’s no cameras in the showers! Happens all the time as does oddly in the cafeteria.

Elena's avatar

I’m not thinking about shanking. I’m thinking about getting his just rewards.

Margaret's avatar

Looks like Russia Russia Russia was bedrock truth. Donny lies again, and too many people living in the USA believed him. The 2020 election was not stolen, but I’m willing to bet the 2024 election was stolen by Musk and Trump. May they be prosecuted by every imaginable court with even flimsy jurisdiction!

Elizabeth Guss's avatar

NOT SO SIMPLE When Trump looks lovely at Putin - he doesnot see Putin - he sees unbelievable $$$$ wealth! Trump has specifically expressed interest in securing access to critical minerals and rare earth elements from Ukraine. r Ukraine as an Eastern European country, and has an estimated $12.4 trillion in mineral wealth. Trump via Witkoff, Kusnher, Trump Jr. is NOW making deals to access the minerals, oil, etc in Central and Eastern Europe - Best routes through Russia

Fernee Says I Told You So's avatar

I’m thrilled to hear about this. They need to do their job. He believes he can do whatever he wants. He’s impotent and he’s going to get held accountable.

Diane Doyle's avatar

Trump has NO jurisdiction whatsoever over ICC. ICC should NOT capitulate to Trump.

Rebecca's avatar

I'm sure someone in the ICC is in the Epstein files and they'll be able to use that for blackmail.

Fraser's avatar

ICC is not so easy-they have Duterte from the Philippines locked up in their custody for maybe a year now!!

Fox.or.Ox's avatar

Lke Who? Please don't give the Magas ideas.

RAIDER⚔️DAVE's avatar

The ICC will cave in… unfortunately.

H.G.'s avatar

Any body checking to see if trump is paying out any judgement orders from any court????

Glen's avatar

The ICC is stronger than the trump administration. Go ahead, threaten sanctions. See how well that works for you, USA.

Joe 🏳️‍🌈🇨🇦🇺🇸's avatar

Nah they are like him full of greed, power and lust.

Tonight I was sent info from CNN about 10 children that may have died from the covid vaccines “without offering evidence”. 700 million doses of Covid 19 have been administered in the US since 2020 said the World Health Org. Robert Kennedy Jr's name was brought up as to his slashing funding the Covid vaccine.

Eric Bruce's avatar

Hope?

They better not.

It won’t mean anything because any help to the orange felon would be under duress.

Meaningless!

Jacky's avatar

Wish Democrats would have but they were too busy doing war crimes for Israel.

Public Servant's avatar

Lock them up for war crimes. Hegseth must be arrested and prosecuted in international court. We cannot allow Trump and Republicans to keep killing innocents: https://democracydefender2025.substack.com/p/pete-hegseth-war-crime-venezuela

Linda Obit's avatar

The ICC should never allow this egoistic, malignant narcissist to have immunity. Who the hell does he think he is that the whole world needs to cater to him and his corrupt, evil regime. These people are a cancer to the world. Thier reign of terror needs to end. The world needs to stand up and put him in his place. They are domestic terrorists and maybe Cecot or somewhere “shithole country” would be the perfect place for the lot of them.

John Wayne Lively's avatar

better yet, let’s old school their asses. Public square.

Sheryl's avatar

I’m Going To !!!!

Kim Griffith's avatar

So essentially they’re saying, we know we are going to commit war crimes and we don’t want to be punished for it.

lat428's avatar

We want to commit crimes with impunity like we always have.

Kim Griffith's avatar

There is no we in this, 70% of Americans across both parties oppose this.

lat428's avatar

By "we" I mean the felon and his administration. Them.

Dana Bennett's avatar

This is some BAD SHIT. Take down “dear leader” - Trump is CRAZY & DEMENTED!!!

Dana Bennett's avatar

Good reporting Aaron.

Robert Lawrence Gioia's avatar

He's also admitting that he did commit war crimes.

Sue's avatar

Bush/Cheney already as good as admitted that when they refused to join the ICC. And they soon showed us why. Lucky for them they couldn't be extradited from here, but Rumsfeld could never venture abroad again, either, for fear of being arrested, nor can Bush.

Sophia A's avatar

Latino's for Trump then watched their friends and family get kidnapped by ICE. Do they have the empathy to feel any sort of way?

Jill Andrea Rivkin's avatar

Prosecute all of them.

brenda key's avatar

don't give them immunity!

Marcella M's avatar

They know they all belong on trial at The Hague. If this isn’t a sign to the next Democratic administration to become a member state of the ICC, I don’t know what will be. When we do, we need to turn over every single one of them to The Hague for their crimes against humanity.

MollyWhitebear's avatar

YES! But they won't. Even Obama didn't join due to ongoing concerns at that time about potential politically motivated prosecutions of U.S. citizens and the belief that the U.S. legal system was sufficient to handle such cases. Although there was a shift towards cooperation with the ICC, the administration did not submit the Rome Statute for Senate ratification.

Well, we now KNOW that our legal system failed miserably to handle such cases! We NEED to officially belong to the ICC and submit the Rome Statute to Senate for ratification!

Marcella M's avatar

Circumstances have changed. The Dems have changed. We saw how slow our justice system works. It’s insufficient to prosecute such crimes in such numbers. I believe we’ll become a member state just for this purpose. With a super majority, it can be ratified.

MollyWhitebear's avatar

I wish! We REALLY should have been a part of ICC after tRump's first criminal term! It was proven then that we couldn't handle this level of criminality! Then Biden made it even worse by not lighting a big fire under Garland when he chose to drag his feet for 22 months in prosecuting tRump. Both are main parties sucked in this regard.

Marcella M's avatar

Biden was normal in that he knew that the DOJ was to remain independent and not under the influence of the administration. That is what is supposed to happen. Trump has normalized corruption so we think it’s normal to have control over the DOJ while in the WH. It’s not. Also, we aren’t a part of the ICC currently, because former presidents would be exposed to war crime prosecution. Even though we were instrumental in creating the ICC, we didn’t become a member because our foreign policy would clash with it. So, in that case, yes, both parties are to blame. However, with the election of a more progressive and modern Democratic Party, I believe we could and should ratify the Rome statute and become a member state going forward, if not only to clean this mess up seeing that our judicial system isn’t equipped for a constitutional crisis like what this administration has caused. I’m not a fan of putting both parties in the same basket and calling them the same. They are not the same by any means about most things, but we do have some foreign policy that is awful and outdated and has been carried forward by both parties as the status quo for far too long. That needs to change for progress.

I got in more trouble saying "asshole" when I was in high school than this joker has for rape, child trafficking, blackmail, and fraud.

Deb Fyfe's avatar

I get in more trouble on social media for saying asshole than those jokers do for rape, child trafficking, blackmail and fraud, and lying about everything.

Marcella M's avatar

Right??? It’s insane.

Chris's avatar

My brother when he was little he said the F word in front of my mom and got slapped in the face. This sob gets by with murder and nothing happens to him. Lord , every damn day it's something new. Maybe we the people need to storm the wh and take all of them out by the ears.

REALLY GUILTY, which they ALL are!

Anthony Rupert's avatar

The ICC isn’t the Supreme Court, so good luck with that, Donnie (and if there is a God in Heaven, he won’t last until 2029).

MollyWhitebear's avatar

That's what he's afraid of! Because they're not in his f'n pocket like this sorryass SCOTUS is.

PleaseMakeItStopPlease's avatar

😂 Trump knows that he’s toast! He knows that he’s losing the midterm elections thus losing a huge chunk of power! Trying to threaten sanctions on the ICC just reeks of his guilt! The walls are closing in on him and I love it!

Toni Galloway's avatar

Oh hell no, get them all that were involved

Connie Haley's avatar

This delusional POS needs to be stop his mafia style threats already. Maybe the moron should just stop his lawless and illegal behavior and then he wouldn't have to worry about being charged with criminal acts.

Michelle Boydston's avatar

Will never happen. Slimy Mikey will never let anything happen to his crush 🙄

Fraser's avatar

Nope! It's who he is!!

What i am hearing is we have HOPE that they could potentially ROT in jail for what they are doing.

Nancy Raskauskas's avatar

Trump doesn’t just want to be King of the United States, he wants to be King of the World. But, by the way, Where is Vance? Anybody seen him lately or heard him commenting on anything recently?

Jumajaju11's avatar

He's too busy with Erika Kirk so when trump kicks the bucket Vance will have cult members.

Anna Birr's avatar

Erika wants to be first lady

Fraser's avatar

Oh, he is mulling over telling the wife they have overturned her citizenship, thereby opening the door for Lady Kirk!!
