Trump slaps sanctions on ICC judges.

Uhh..wasn't that formed to prosecute Nazis?
No, the ICC was formed in 2002 - 2006 as a court to address international crime like drug and human smuggling. It jumped the shark with Leftists being appointed and has become a self-appointed arbiter of moral and social values generally as espoused by the Left since then. It has faced almost continuous claims and criticism as being, variously, racist, politically Leftist, Eurocentrist, etc.

Basically, it has become a joke on the level of the UN. It has no means of carrying out warrants other than to rely on third party states. It hands down sentences on the level of European justice systems in general. That is, someone like Pol Pot might get 30 years for offing millions. On the whole, it is a sad joke and nearly ineffective.
