Venezuela suing the U.S. in the International Court? Yeah, good luck with that seeing as how the ICC is quite useless as is the United Nations since the U.S. government just completely ignores both entities and who don’t know this was blind and deaf and has been planted. The U.S. runs roughshod over this entire planet and recognizes not one group that is about making sure that ALL nations respect ALL nations, hence why the Pentagon has a bloated budget while all else are dealing with budget cuts. Gotta maintain that arsenal of weaponry that is to be used to subdue other countries.

Shelby, I think this may be in response to Pence’s call for the ICC to convict Venezuela of crimes against humanity for blocking the food aid. Which I find extremely ironic because the US still refuses to officially recognize the ICC.
