Donald Trump Is a War Criminal
 

Donald Trump is a war criminal! His recent actions in Venezuela, the boat bombings in the Caribbean, and now, together with Israel, his military assault on Iran, are all war crimes. And Congressional Republicans, by their silence, are accomplices to those crimes.

Our Constitution clearly establishes that law is superior to power. The Trump administration believes the opposite. Despite losing case after case in the courts — and thanks to a servile Department of Justice — Trump is able to thumb his nose at those decisions.

He also ignores the will of the people, the vast majority of whom have demonstrated their opposition to his destructive actions.

Trump must be stopped! Apparently the only vehicle for stopping him is a complete turnaround in Congress in the coming midterm elections. Whatever flaws we may find with the Democrats, they are the only hope for impeaching him — and consequently continuing the case against him relating to January 6. This should end by putting him where he belongs: in prison.

The Big Dumb War Cycle  --  Cartoon and Commentary by Jen Sorensen

What worries me about our probable new war footing (aside from the mass death, etc.) is what happens domestically given our increasingly fact-free and lawless political environment. To say violence and abuses of power are likely is an understatement.

This tracker exists because the public deserves real-time transparency about the cost of military operations — not just after-the-fact reports years later. The counter uses the Pentagon's own preliminary estimate of $1 billion per day. Independent analyses suggest the true cost may be significantly higher.

Virtual Attendance - People's Congress for the Hague Group - End the Nakba - March 7  (Progressive International)

 

The Nakba Never Ended

For more than seventy-seven years, the Palestinian people have confronted and resisted a permanent Israeli regime of settler-colonialism, apartheid, and genocide.

Today, those crimes continue — enabled by an international infrastructure of courts and ports, foundries and factories, parliaments and tech platforms, insurers and investors.

Millions of ordinary people across the world have mobilised to do just that. From São Paulo to London, Kuala Lumpur to Tangie

To End the Nakba, We Must First We Must First Cut These Circuits of Complicity

Millions of ordinary people across the world have mobilised to do just that. From São Paulo to London, Kuala Lumpur to Tangier, the peoples of the world have called on their governments to take urgent action to end the Gaza genocide.

And in January 2025, a Coalition of Courageous Governments Heeded That Call

Colombia, South Africa, Malaysia, and others came together to form The Hague Group: the first bloc of states committed to the defence of international law.

Together, they adopted measures to end arms exports, denied harbour to Israel-bound ships, and committed to prosecute the criminals who executed the genocide of the Palestinian people.

But One Year From the Formation of the Hague Group, The Call for Urgent Action Has Only Grown Louder

To close every port, to stop every shipment, to prosecute every criminal — we need political will to meet people's power.

That is why, on the first anniversary of The Hague Group's formation, popular forces from across the world — unions and movements, parties and parliamentarians — return to its birthplace for this historic People's Congress.

Together, we will forge a common plan to end the Nakba — across courts, ports, contracts, and beyond.
