In a letter this week addressed to the President of the International Criminal Court (ICC), Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche wrote that the Department of Justice rejects any assertion of jurisdiction by the ICC over Americans.
The United States is not a party to the Rome Statute and has never consented to the ICCโs authority. As a matter of international law, a treaty cannot bind a non-consenting country. Accordingly, the ICC has no jurisdiction over Americans โ anywhere in the world โ and any attempt to assert such authority is illegitimate, unlawful, and a direct affront to the sovereignty of the United States.

Iโve designated the Ecuadorian gang Chone Killers as a Foreign Terrorist Organization and Specially Designated Global Terrorist. Ecuadorian gangs help Mexican cartels move and export illicit drugs to fund terrorism and criminal activity. The Chone Killers have attacked civilians, law enforcement officers, and government officials, including high profile assassinations of public officials.
Working with President @DanielNoboaOk in Ecuador, we will continue to strengthen our regional security and ensure narcoterrorists have no place in our hemisphere.

.@SECWAR "This background noise is PERFECTโ
It's the sound of INGRATES, of ingratitudeโof people who are so BLINDED BY IDEOLOGY they can't see law and order and common sense in front of them. There is nothing ideological about this group...
LAW AND ORDER IS SOMETHING ALL AMERICANS DESERVE."
The U.S. Navy just hit its recruiting goal of 45,000 Sailors โ 3 months ahead of schedule. Even more impressive: they raised their goal by 10% and still exceeded expectations.
This is what happens when strong leadership under President Trump, high standards, a return to perfecting the basics, and a mission that matters come together. Americans are stepping up to serve because they believe in our country, our Navy, and our warfighters.
Congratulations @USNavy and every recruiter, leader, and future Sailor who made this possible!
Robert Kennedy JR speaking truth on MK Ultra, JFK's assassination, and Manchurian Candidates.
Release the truth to the world. The people need to understand the evil that our CIA has participated in.
"The CIA is allowed to propagandize around the world and it's the biggest funder of journalism today. It owns some of the biggest newspapers and magazines. In 1973 there were congressional hearings that came out of the House Select Assassinations Committee when all the CIA's secrets were revealed. They were called the family jewels... Americans learned for the first time about Operation Mockingbird, MK Ultra....It stands for mind control. The CIA had these programs in 220 universities around our country, Latin America, and Canada experimenting with ways to control he human mind. LSD came out of that program. They were using psychoactive drugs, they were using torture, they were using sensory deprivation... They were figuring out how to develop Manchurian candidates on willing assassins through hypnosis and these other techniques... How do you control whole societies through the destruction of institutions, the provocation of lies...We had a very sophisticated program that violated a lot of American values. There's a lot of things that came out of it. It's hard to tell because a lot of it was top secret. It's a really surprisingly well-documented history... The term conspiracy theorist, there was a memo that went out to all of those journalists who were associated with the CIA in 1964 where they said that anyone who questions the Kennedy assassination, the Warren Report, the commission was essentially told you've got to say this was a single gunmen. Do not let people talk about a conspiracy theory. The real head of the commission was Allen Dulles who had been the head of the CIA who my Uncle had fired. When my uncle died, he told a journalist he thought 'he was a god I'm glad the little shit is dead.' We now know that the CIA was directly involved in my Uncle's assassination in a 60-year cover-up. They are still not releasing the last assassination documents."
