How sanctions imposed by Trump are taking a toll on the International Criminal Court The International Criminal Court, or ICC, only intervenes when national courts can't or won't prosecute crimes like genocide and crimes against humanity. But after the Trump administration sanctioned several members of the court this year, Americans trying to prosecute some of the world's worst crimes at the ICC are discovering those sanctions are preventing them from doing that. Kira Kay reports.

President Trump's sanctions against the International Criminal Court are preventing Americans from helping the court prosecute the gravest international crimes.

Our clients are suing the Trump administration because the First Amendment protects speech that aids the ICC's work.

If Congress follows Trump's directive to rename the Defense Department, it could cost taxpayers nearly $2B in new signage, letterheads, and digital code.

Imagine if we invested that money β€” and our bloated military budget as well β€” on the American people instead of the Pentagon.

Trump's DOT has officially scrapped a Biden-era rule requiring airlines to pay passengers cash compensation when flight disruptions are caused by airlines.

Flying already sucks β€” and Trump wants to make it suck even more. https://youtu.be/eTzaMXXelew?si=OghvJOMzUq2ZeJrc

The Administration is finally admitting the truth: tariffs are taxes, and the American people are suffering from rising costs.

Between affordability to the election losses to the Epstein files, this has been a terrible couple of weeks for Trump and the MAGA movement.

How many Republicans will defy Trump and vote to release the Epstein files? Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) said he expects a "deluge" of Republicans to join the Tuesday vote to release the Epstein files, adding it could be "100 or more."

β€œWhen I see Donald Trump announce a bunch of investigations, I don’t see him going after these rich elites that are implicated in these files, according to the survivors," Republican Thomas Massie said on Sunday.

With a Trump pardon in hand, Stewart Rhodes says he’s β€˜rebuilding’ the Oath Keepers After vowing to bring back his group, Rhodes added that he’d like to see the president β€œorder us all to come together ... under his command.”

"'Right now, under federal statutes, President Trump can call us up as the militia,' he said

Rhodes added that he’d like to see Trump 'order us all to come together in our counties under his command'...”

Then they came for the Dreamers Immigrants brought here as children were told they wouldn’t be deported. Now, they’re being targeted anyway.

The plight of Dreamers used to be emblematic of the obvious failures of our immigration system.

Now, they’ve become targetsβ€” "betrayed by the only country [they have] ever called home.”

And Trump has had almost a year to release them which he promised to do during his campaign. What’s your point?

The Secret Behind High Gas Prices
Robert Reich The Secret Behind High Gas Prices

The Trump regime just killed a rule protecting millions of acres of western Arctic lands from fossil fuel drilling.

It’s yet another giveaway to Big Oil β€” which spent $450 million backing Trump and Republicans and lobbying Congress last year.

Yes but then the motion can only be called on a second or fourth Monday of the month
(per discharge calendar). Earliest vote could be 11/24 but will likely be delayed as long as possible.

DHS takes credit for crime being down in Chicago. Data shows that was happening before they arrived. Immigration officials on Tuesday said a drop in crime numbers was thanks to their work. Police data show the decrease was taking place before federal agents arrived in the city.

Trump is a liar. Tear gassing kids in peaceful neighborhoods makes no one safer.

He cannot steal credit from our violence prevention and law enforcement efforts that have reduced crime for four years straight β€” long before his masked agents showed up. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...
