In order for the United States to become a party to the International Criminal Court and have our officials be subject to trial at The Hague, the US Senate would need to ratify the Rome statute by a two-thirds vote. Let’s start running on that.

I read somewhere that there are alternatives to Johnson doing the swearing in, anyone know if that's true?

Yes and she can't be the only one. Any of the dept secrectaries who have participated in this lawless spree of terrorizing people in the US should be tried for crimes against humanity.

I don't know what to think except these masked goons are looking to commit assault and serious bodily injury. They don't care to who, they just want to do it.
