Researchers at Yale University had been compiling database of alleged Russian war crimes, including abduction of up to 35,000 children

Summary

Trump cut funding to Yale’s Humanitarian Research Lab, which was tracking Russian war crimes, including the abduction of 35,000 Ukrainian children.

A Yale source claims the U.S. State Department deleted key evidence, possibly hindering prosecution efforts and rescue missions. The data was crucial to the ICC’s case against Putin and others.

Trump, who recently met with Putin, has taken a pro-Russian stance.

Yale’s project had led to multiple indictments, but its shutdown raises concerns over legal and humanitarian consequences.

    Remember when all the liars pretended to care about Palestinian children and yet somehow voted for Jill Stein or stayed at home? I do.

      Remember when tens of thousands of Palestinian children ( at minimum) were murdered on Bidens watch with his help? I do. Seems like you dont want to admit that but it happened. And save your response, I dont catre about what genociders think.

      The 60 to 0 is so abrupt in the noise they made, I’m starting to wonder how significant a portion of that cohort was just bots and troll farms

        Yeah I think many of them were not people with real opinions. Because that opinion was idiotic. Ignoring the consequences one claims to be avoiding takes a special kind of stupid

          I think they were real people because I regularly get into arguments with those dumbasses. They also always have the same bullshit easily proven wrong logic.

          Fuck, two people today told me “Not voting isn’t inaction.” Like how fucking stupid do you have to be to think literally not doing anything is going to make something happen?

      In swing States (where the election was decided), voter turnout was almost the same in 2024 as in the last presidential election. So you can stop repeating the debunked claim that voters who “stayed home” are to blame for Trump’s victory.
