US Sanctions International Criminal Court

Red State:

...

The ICC has already suffered some fallout for its prosecutors from the U.S., including for the Hague-based international justice body's lead lawyer: (emphasis added)

The US has already sanctioned the ICC’s chief prosecutor, Karim Khan, because of his role in pursuing the arrest warrants for Netanyahu and Gallant. Those sanctions have led Khan to lose access to his email and his bank accounts have been frozen, the Associated Press reported earlier this month. 

That's a shame, isn't it?

We were just getting warmed up, though. On Thursday, Secretary of State Marco Rubio didn't mince words in his announcement of U.S. sanctions being imposed against four additional judges on the ICC who savaged both our nation's troops on the battlefield and leaders of our ally, Israel:

The post continued, with the secretary writing that the second "attack" requiring correction was by "two [judges] who authorized the ICC’s illegitimate arrest warrants targeting @IsraeliPM Netanyahu and former Defense Minister @YoavGallant. We call on our allies to stand with us against this disgraceful attack."

...

The ICC appears to be in the grasp of liberal wackos, mostly from around the world.  They look like they are siding with the terrorists who have been attacking Israel and the US.  Israel clearly has the right to respond to attacks on its people.

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

Is the F-35 obsolete?

Headline USA: Pentagon Fires Back after Musk Calls Its Most Expensive Project ‘Obsolete’ 'Yeah, as I'm sure you can appreciate, Mr. Musk is, currently, a private citizen, I'm not going to make any comments about what a private citizen may have to say about the F-35....'   ... ... Drones appear to be replacing jets for many operations.  The Russia-Ukraine war is an example of that.  Drones are often hard to detect and can be used for intelligence operations as well as for attacking enemy targets.  It would not surprise me to see drones engaging other drones in combat.  They also cost much less than manned fighters.
