Marco Rubio says the administration will try to “dismantle” the ICC. Who is he trying to protect?

Trump is not a fan if the International Criminal Court (ICC). Maybe it's because his pardons and his cronies on the US Supreme Court have no sway there.

The highest compliment that can be paid to the International Criminal Court is that the Trump administration is terrified of it. Secretary of State Marco Rubio expressed that fear this week by declaring that the administration would use “all the tools at our government’s disposal” to “dismantle” the ICC. [ ... ] The ICC, which is based in The Hague, came into being in 2002 after more than 100 countries ratified the Rome Statute. Under that treaty, the court has jurisdiction to prosecute and try people for committing various crimes under international law, ranging from war crimes to genocide. Most of its prosecutions to date have targeted dictators and warlords in Africa and Asia. [ ... ] More than a few top Trump officials have good reason to worry about their own legal culpability before the ICC—and the effect it could have on their post-administration life—rather than that of the average American cop or soldier.

People like Trump, Whiskey Pete Hegseth, and Stephen Miller will have to be careful where they set foot after 20 January 2029.

They've committed war crimes, they KNOW they have committed war crimes, and are scared AF of being held accountable for the war crimes they have committed. ICC needs to prosecute every last one of these fuckers.
