Marco Rubio Launches Campaign to Dismantle the International Criminal Court

Secretary of State Marco Rubio has opened a campaign to dismantle the International Criminal Court, arguing in a Wall Street Journal op-ed that the global tribunal interferes with U.S. military and law-enforcement operations and threatens American sovereignty. Rubio invoked the specter of U.S. border agents and elected officials being 'dragged before an international court' and tried by foreign judges. The move marks a sharp escalation of the administration's long-running hostility toward the Hague-based court.
