ICC issues arrest warrants for Putin minions Shoygu and Gerasimov

“On 24 June 2024, Pre-Trial Chamber II of the International Criminal Court (‘ICC’ or ‘Court’), composed of Judge Rosario Salvatore Aitala, Presiding, Judge Sergio Gerardo Ugalde Godínez and Judge Haykel Ben Mahfoudh, issued warrants of arrest for two individuals, Mr Sergei Kuzhugetovich Shoigu and Mr Valery Vasilyevich Gerasimov, in the context of the situation in Ukraine for alleged international crimes committed from at least 10 October 2022 until at least 9 March 2023.”

“Mr Sergei Kuzhugetovich Shoigu, born on 21 May 1955, Minister of Defence of the Russian Federation at the time of the alleged conduct, and Mr Valery Vasilyevich Gerasimov, born on 8 September 1955, Chief of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation and First Deputy Minister of Defence of the Russian Federation at the time of the alleged conduct, are each allegedly responsible for the war crime of directing attacks at civilian objects and the war crime of causing excessive incidental harm to civilians or damage to civilian objects, and the crime against humanity of inhumane acts under article 7(1)(k) of the Rome Statute. There are reasonable grounds to believe they bear individual criminal responsibility for the aforementioned crimes for having committed the acts jointly and/or through others, ordering the commission of the crimes, and/or for their failure to exercise proper control over the forces under their command.”

“The two warrants of arrest were issued following applications filed by the Prosecution. Pre-Trial Chamber II considered that there are reasonable grounds to believe that the two suspects bear responsibility for missile strikes carried out by the Russian armed forces against the Ukrainian electric infrastructure from at least 10 October 2022 until at least 9 March 2023. During this time-frame, a large number of strikes against numerous electric power plants and sub-stations were carried out by the Russian armed forces in multiple locations in Ukraine,” says the International Criminal Court in a statement. Don’t be surprised if Republicans start calling for sanctions again.

Israeli Supreme Court orders IDF to draft ultra-orthodox men

In a landmark ruling, Israel’s Supreme Court on Tuesday ordered the country’s military to begin drafting ultra-orthodox men, reversing a long-standing cultural exemption to otherwise compulsory service that the AP reports could “lead to the collapse of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s governing coalition” given his regime’s reliance on the political support of religious extremists.

The exemption was, for obvious reasons, pretty controversial among the less hardcore of Israel’s Jewish population, fueling resentment from less conservative and even secular Israelis bled to protect the nation that has increased following the October 7th massacre. More than 600 IDF personnel were killed in the attack and the now nearly nine months of subsequent fighting in Gaza.

Netanyahu’s Regime had argued to the court that the end of the exemption would “tear Israeli society apart,” a very Trump-ish, l’État, c’est moi conflation of “society” with the corrupt dictator’s political survival as compelling the Ultras into service may lead to their parties leaving his coalition, triggering snap elections that “Bibi” is not at all favored to survive as prime minister.

“Well look isn’t it better if there are no documents?”

In a lengthy new leak to ABC News about the lead-up to the August 2022 FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago, Justice Department special counsel Jack Smith’s team lay out much more of their evidence demonstrating convicted felon former President Trump’s consciousness of guilt in possessing classified documents stolen from the White House following his humiliating defeat to Joe Biden in the 2020 election, a leak pretty obviously timed to undermine the authority of MAGA federal judge Aileen Cannon as she continues to purposely stall the case to Trump’s advantage politically.

The leak, centered on lawyer Evan Corcoran’s notes, show a former president who was convinced he was damned if he did, damned if he didn’t return the stolen material, with Corcoran writing “He raised a question as to, if we gave them additional documents now, would they, would they, the Department of Justice, come back and say well, why did you withhold them and try to use that as a basis for criminal liability or to make him look bad in the press,” in notes memorializing a May 2022 meeting about the subpoena for their return. “Well look isn’t it better if there are no documents?” Trump also asked his lawyers after raising concerns about the DOJ “opening up new fronts.”

“Look, you know, I have ten different actions against me. They are trying to get me. They’re going after me. These people are ruthless,” Trump told Corcoran as if it mattered. “I’ve done all these great things for the country. I improved the economy, I lowered taxes, I did this, I did that, built the wall.”

When he had to adjourn the meeting to do some interviews, Trump told Corcoran and another lawyer, Jennifer Little, to “take a walk along the beach” and that “maybe… sparks will fly,” since both were single. This again was when they were trying to talk him into complying with a subpoena.

Ronny Whatshizname under investigation by Ethics Committee for paying for country club membership with campaign funds

Texas Republican drunk Ronny Johnson Jackson, a man whose improper dispensing of prescription drugs while White House Physician during the Trump Administration earned him a demotion after his retirement from the Navy, has been under investigation by the House Ethics Committee for misuse of campaign funds to pay for a personal membership to a private club, Amarillo news outlet MyHighPlains.com reports.

According to a preliminary report, Jackson “continued to use campaign funds to pay for unlimited access to the Amarillo Club, a private dining club located in Amarillo, Texas–despite Rep. Jackson being aware of the OCE’s December 2021 referral finding substantial reason to believe that the dues payments were not legitimate and verifiable campaign expenditures.”  So Jackson was using funds from his first campaign in 2020 to pay the club fees, was caught, told “Don’t do this!” and continued to do it.  Sounds like the actions of an addict.

Temp employee at Arizona elections office stole keys, security fob giving access Maricopa County ballot tabulaters

Walter Ringfield, a temporary worker at the Maricopa County elections office, was charged with theft and criminal damage after he stole a security fob and keys that provided access to software used during the election tabulation process, CNN reports.  The man was seen on security cams walking by a cubicle, then reaching inside and taking a set of keys on a lanyard from the cubicle.

After a search of Ringfield’s car turned up nothing, police obtained a search warrant for his home, where the stolen items were found.   Because of security protocols, all the fobs and the secure tablets they were assigned to must be reprogramed, an effort that will cost the county at least $19,000.  Ringfield’s motive for stealing the keys and security fob are still unknown.

“Our systems are not only designed to detect anomalies but are also supported by dedicated professionals committed to upholding the democratic process. While this event is unwelcome, it speaks the effectiveness of the security protocols built into Arizona’s election systems,” the office said in a statement that will trigger innumerable conspiracy theories.

Texas anti-abortion law leads to more dead babies

A new study in the Journal of the American Medical Association presents data showing a link between Texas’s new anti-abortion law and an increase in the state’s infant mortality rate, USA Today reports.  “It just points to some of the devastating consequences of abortion bans that maybe people weren’t thinking about when they passed these laws,” co-author Alison Gemmill, an assistant professor at The Johns Hopkins University’s Bloomberg School of Public Health, said.

It shouldn’t be a shock that when you force pregnant patients to give birth to neonates that have no reasonable chance of survival because of in utero developmental defects, you’re going to have an increase in infant death.  And you’re also going to have a significant increase in the grief, depression, and damage to the families impacted by the death of an infant after a government-demanded full-term pregnancy.

Texas already has the 18th worst maternal mortality rate in America, 20% higher than the national average.  Future data will show increase in the state’s maternal mortality rate as patients are denied treatment for problem pregnancies.  Also not a shocker:  the 17 states ranking higher are all “red states” or recently red states like Virginia and Arizona.  If you look at the data, living in a Gulf Coast state adds a level of lethality to pregnancy.

Hunter’s lawyers ask court to vacate guilty verdict

Doing everything–even futile acts of legal wrangling–they can to serve their client, Hunter Biden’s attorneys filed a motion with the court requesting it vacate Biden’s recent guilty verdict on federal charges on a procedural technicality, ABC News reports.

(Shhhhh… don’t tell anyone.  This is all part of the Deep State plan to absolve Hunter Biden of the charges.  See, the federal trial started before Biden’s circuit court appeal was denied.  It’s was all part of the plan:  now the Court can say “Oops!  Looks like we gotta let the underboss of the Biden Crime Family now.  Oh, well!”  It’s all part of the plan.)

Pelosi on Chief Justice: “Did he go weak or did he go rogue?”

Asked by CNN’s Anderson Cooper if she’s lost faith in the Supreme Court given the myriad corruption scandals plaguing the Court from the Alitos’ flags to the Thomas’s luxury vacations, Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi questioned the leadership of John Roberts:  “No, I think they’ve gone rogue.  It’s most unfortunate.  But it’s unfortunate further to see what the other Justices– what happened, what happened to the Chief Justice?  Did he go weak, or did he go rogue?  I don’t know.”

Kremlin vows to retaliate against US for Ukrainian missile attacks

A Kremlin spokesperson blamed the United States for a Ukrainian attack on Russian-held Crimea using American-made ATACMS missiles that killed at least four people and injured more than 150 and vowed , Reuters reports.

Russia’s Foreign Ministry informed the US Ambassador to Russia that the United States was “waging a hybrid war against Russia and has actually become a party to the conflict,” claiming that American resources were used to target and direct the missile strike. “Retaliatory measures will definitely follow,” it vowed.

Biden’s Infrastructure Act wasn’t fast enough for Minnesota dam

A dam on the Blue Earth River near Rapidan, Minnesota was reportedly in “imminent failure condition” on Monday and suffered a partial breach as river waters took down a small section of the structure, destroying a home, according to CBS News.  The Rapidan Dam was reaching critical stress levels when the river tore through the west abutment and took out the roadway running over the concrete dam, but the river redirected back into the riverbed potentially minimizing damage downstream and relieving the pressure on the 114-year-old structure.  Because the overflow is staying within the riverbed, officials have not ordered evacuations downstream.

According to court documents, Assange was charged by criminal information with conspiracy to obtain and disclose national defense information in a sign that a deal has already been done.  Assange is charged in relation to releasing thousands of pages of classified documents disclosed by Chelsea Manning.

Republican Party’s abusive overlord declares victory in VA-05

Apparently fed up with waiting for a network or someone to make a call in the now six-days removed Virginia 5th District primary between incumbent far right extremist Congressman Bob Good and also extreme far right but more loyal challenger state Senator John McGuire, convicted felon former President Trump on Monday just went ahead and declared McGuire the victor anyway, posting the signature pic of himself with a sly, shit-eating half-grin and McGuire’s kind of slightly-off face photoshopped together in an endorsement win template on Truth Social. It’s true that McGuire’s lead has widened since last week but we’re talking it’s at 373 when on Thursday it was at 321.

So yeah he’s probably ultimately going to be right about McGuire winning, even as Good is making noises about a fight. Elections are very hard to overturn even at this low of margins. It’s also very on-brand for Trump to simply say his guy won when no independent sources are saying the same.

Patriot who declined Trump medal boning cheerleader, 24: report

Six-time Super Bowl champ NFL coach Bill Belichick, 72, who decided it was a bad look to accept a Presidential Medal of Freedom from now-convicted felon former President Trump after the fat fuck incited a deadly insurrection the Capitol in 2021, apparently also thinks it’s a bad look for him to be sexing up a 24 year-old cheerleader since the evidence he was doing so was a doorbell cam video of him leaving a house at an odd hour last November, something Breitbart reports was until now nothing more than hinted at in sly in-jokes between former players Tom Brady and Rob Gronkowski.

Breitbart cites even trashier site the Daily Mail as confirming the identity of the former college but not NFL cheerleader who met Big Bill – divorced since 2006 – on a Miami-Boston flight a few years ago. It’s not like “dating” a woman literally a third his age is that bad relative to the kind of shit Belichick’s boss, Mar-a-Lago member Robert Kraft, got himself mixed up in with that whole crazy bringing a Chinese sex trafficker and her communist spy pals into the classified document box-filled beach club thing from 2018 or whenever it was. In fact it’s kind of normal by those standards.

Incredibly, abysmally, what the fuck is wrong with you, low standards. But standards nonetheless.

Kentucky MAGA racist admits threats to hang Black schoolkids

“A Kentucky man pleaded guilty and was sentenced last week to one year and one day in prison and one year of supervised release in the District of Eastern Louisiana for committing a federal hate crime. According to court documents, Brian Adams, 24, of Paintsville, Kentucky, transmitted a threat to a fifth-grade class at the Laureate Academy Charter School on or about Oct 14, 2020. At the time, the school was conducting class virtually over Zoom due to the COVID-19 pandemic.”

“Specifically, Adams used racial epithets against the students and teachers and threatened to ‘hang them by a tree.’ Adams pleaded guilty to one count of transmitting threatening communications. The court found that Adams’ actions were motivated by hate,” says a Department of Justice press release that leaves out a few details found in a 2022 report by the Grio that the kids were mostly Black, Adams used the N-word repeatedly and caused them to cry as he screamed his hateful abuse, and that he posted a recording of “the Zoom-bombing” of the New Orleans elementary charter school’s virtual class… classes that were canceled for the next two days after the attack.

North Dakota GOP pedophile pleads guilty to child sex tourism

Republican former North Dakota state Senator Ray Holmberg on Monday signed an agreement to plead guilty in a federal court to charges that he traveled to the Czech Republic repeatedly to have sex with underage girls, the coda to a 45 year career in politics in the desolate state that ended in 2022 when he was caught texting a known child pornographer, the North Dakota Monitor reports.

The plea agreement drops the child porn counts for which Holmberg was indicted last year along with the charge of traveling with the intent to rape a minor for a series of trips he took to the Czech Republic between 2011 and 2016. Holmberg had served 45 years in the state Senate and chaired the appropriations committee at the time he was exposed as a pedophile. He may have appropriated himself the scratch needed to cover his vile sex vacations in eastern Europe as the AP found he spent at least $126,000 in state funds for travel over the last decade. The 79 year-old was a school counselor at his day job until he retired so who knows what the fuck else he might’ve done.

Orange Felon all-caps claims he’s game for a pre-debate drug test

Convicted felon former President Trump on Monday toggled the caps lock and posted “DRUG TEST FOR CROOKED JOE BIDEN??? I WOULD, ALSO, IMMEDIATELY AGREE TO ONE!!!” as if a company such as CNN wouldn’t have the resources to administer a piss test to both men prior to the debate.

If we’re going to indulge this then we guess it’s on the Biden campaign and CNN to call the bluff and schedule it for Thursday evening in Atlanta, maybe even have Jake Tapper and Dana Bash read the results right at the beginning just to embarrass the fat bastard and throw him off his “game.”

In related news, CNN on Monday printed an article headlined “First debate of the cycle has a history tripping up former presidents,” and by that they mean “incumbents,” since historically the sitting president has had a hard time in their first round with a challenger who is fresher off of multiple face-offs against primary opponents. It’s not until the twelfth paragraph that they finally mention that “Trump skipped this year’s Republican primary debates, passing up a training exercise past challengers have enjoyed. In some ways, that puts both men on equal footing when they walk onto Thursday’s debate stage,” which in some ways undermines the article’s entire premise.

Almost as stupid and mainstream media circlejerky on Monday was the New York Times’s “The Voters Watching the Debate With a Hand Over Their Eyes,” quoting from apprehensive libs worrying about how Biden will fare against the fat fuck. “I’m fearful, I really am,” said one Dem voter hailing from The Villages, Florida (lol). For “balance,” the Times includes quotes from Philly-area Trump fans saying shit like Donald “has [Biden] in the debate, hands down,” and another declaring the Orange Allah “is going to eat him up and spit him out. I’m going to make popcorn. I’m having a party.”
