“Accusations without evidence. Enemies everywhere. Loyalty tests as governance.”

One of the institutions virtually labelled corrupt is the ICC - to which the U.S., Israel, Russia & China refuse to join … why do they refuse to abide by international & humanitarian laws? (And how does the adage ‘You are known by the company you keep’ apply here?)

“This Canadian judge knows firsthand the impact of being targeted by 🔻Trump's America

“Kimberly Prost is one of several judges and prosecutors at the 🔹 International Criminal Court being sanctioned by the Trump administration. It's upended her daily life — but won't intimidate her.

… Last August, Kimberly Prost became one of several judges and prosecutors at the International Criminal Court (ICC) targeted by Donald Trump's administration with sanctions as a result of their work trying to hold perpetrators of alleged war crimes and other atrocities accountable.”

“ Prost was sanctioned because she had previously authorized an ICC probe into alleged crimes in Afghanistan, including incidents that may have involved U.S. personnel. Others were sanctioned for work related to Israel, including the ICC's arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

So far, 11 judges and prosecutors have been targeted for what the U.S. described as threats to the sovereignty and national security of the U.S. and Israel. (Prost and the court's many defenders reject such a notion.)

Although the sanctions are an ongoing nuisance, Prost wants to be clear: they’re not working.”

Remember those school yard bullies? Followers always stood near him because their cowardice and insecurity would rather align with the bully than stand against him. Trump is the bully. Republican politicians and maga are the followers.
