Expect full pardons for every person committing war crimes right now. And because we are not ratified members of the ICC, we are out of that court’s jurisdiction. The chances of any of them ever seeing a courtroom, let alone prison, are close to zero.

"Perhaps this is behind the burgeoning genre of opinion pieces in which a rightwing man complains that women don’t want to date him. Often enough, he is an avowed libertarian, leaving it a mystery why he does not simply accept the workings of the free market."

Years ago, my colleagues at Business Insider and I tracked YouTuber “cancellation” arcs. What we found is that for many entertainers, “cancellation” actually sets the stage for a redemption arc, one that can raise their profile higher than ever. It wasn’t career-ending. It was fuel.

You know, apropos of nothing in particular, and although I haven't researched it yet, I strongly suspect that a president starting a foreign war to distract from his extensive ties with child sex traffickers is probably a high crime or misdemeanor under the Constitution's impeachment clauses.

Ten of the prisoners that Trump officials want to transfer to ADX, a supermax prison in Colorado, have serious mental health conditions, which their lawyers say will be exacerbated by the near total isolation of the conditions there.

Nah. Save time and just call them Republicans.
It’s wrong to lump all top Trump people in one category. There are differences among them. But they do seem to fall into three (sometimes overlapping) categories:

• Ordinary criminals (grift and corruption).

• Sex criminals.

• War criminals.

It shouldn’t take a slur that impacts you personally, or losing your healthcare or SNAP, or being forced to sell your farm, or having to watch a loved one get unjustly detained and deported...to walk away from a madman.

Cruelty isn’t strength.

Reject it.

Always.

Several issues with his argument:
1. Then point of pushing illegal orders is to erase constraints on the executive.
2. Asking “When has regime change ever worked?” supposes that it is both right & legal to do so as long as it’s effective.
3. This war is about staying in power. See also: Bibi.
