article in The Guardian - world news section - headline: “International court rules against El Salvador in key abortion rights case” ; the country (El Salvador) has one of the world’s most restrictive anti-abortion laws: the procedure is prohibited under all circumstances, and women can even be charged with aggravated homicide, carrying sentences of 30 to 50 years in prison. How do (we the people) get the State of Kentucky / United States charged and trialed in the International Court?

Wow - horrifying. I'll have to read up on that more.

The US is not a party to the ICC so we cannot be tried there.

sigh. 😢 so that is also why we remain complicit in destruction of Gaza and murdering Palestinians. i feel terrified that for the least example, even women who for no reason of their own suffer a miscarriage and will be executed. i appreciate you, that human rights matter and you work to forward this truth.

How many times a day do people tell you you're a gem?

As for Sheridan Garman-Neeman's comment, we won't need a third party if we have more people like you. Please run again. Aim high.

Hey, I really appreciate your commentary here. Do you think that it is time to mobilize for a 3rd party?

I think there’s a desire for it but not a viable party or organizing leader or funding for it.

Please run for Senator in 2028. Senator Durbin is considering retirement. We need YOU in office!

Honored to have your vote of support. A viable Senate campaign costs somewhere between $30-$50M. It's so corporate run it's revolting.
