Not sure what that has to do with the potential for shenanigans given the public news of a sentencing date being 4 days before the nominating convention, but ok.

This has an interesting potential given that the RNC Convention will be in Milwaukee, WI July 15, 2024.

Without thinking about the validity of the ICCs argument for it, I wonder if part of their concern is whether or not having an antagonist like the ICC doesn’t shore up potentially eroding domestic support from Gantz and his allies.

In a normal media environment I’d agree with you completely, the problem is that we have a media apparatus that is set up as a propaganda arm of a political party and mainstream media thinks that balance is that any negative news story must be balanced by a negative news story in the other direction (“Trump incites riot and Biden mispronounced his granddaughters name, why both could mean the collapse of their campaigns” type coverage), instead of being balanced in standards of reporting.

I don’t know what the solution is. My strategy though is to work down ballot to get better people in positions to push Biden and get him more flexibility to make better choices and changes.

Pitch for the NYT:

THIS Week: Top Republicans not sure if they’ll accept election results. And Biden is so old and confused he mispronounced the name of the prime minister of Belarus. Which is worse? We asked ten voters in a diner.

9/10 agree it’s Biden.

Sometimes things aren’t your fault but are your problem. And men making excuses like “just locker room talk” and not confronting other men in their lives who do or say toxic things or espouse ideas or personalities that generally make women uncomfortable are our problems, whether or not they are our fault.
