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.
This is so upsetting
Throw it on the pile.
Fascists of a feather fuck up the world together.
Remember when all the cookers were going on about “Save the children”?
Remember when all the liars pretended to care about Palestinian children and yet somehow voted for Jill Stein or stayed at home? I do.
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.
That’s why I blame people that didn’t vote OR voted for Trump.
Paywall
Here’s the relevant quote from that link: “It’s true that overall turnout fell in much of the country, but in the battleground states that actually decided the presidential election, turnout was roughly where it was from four years ago. And it’s clear as day that a bunch of people changed their minds.”
That pokes a hole in their narratives they made up in their heads, so they won’t look at the data that proves them wrong.
Amazing how they never blame Libertarians who on every ballot, but only those on the left of their favorite party.
Who doesn’t blame libertarians? More than one group can be to blame.

It’s never about the children.
From the article …
A Yale source said the US state department deleted the evidence which would have been used as part of rescue efforts to get the children home to Ukraine. It would also have been used to prosecute those behind their abductions – including Russian president Vladimir Putin.
”It is unclear whether it was by accident or intent, but it may reveal or it may cause potential criminal liability for the Trump administration, given international prohibitions against the destruction of war crimes evidence,” the Yale insider told The Independent.
It is unclear whether it was by accident or intent
Lmao. It’s as clear as a pane of glass…

Ooh, nifty wanton destruction of war crimes evidence sounds like a charge that has legs.
Boom. Something this heinous certainly will cause a drop in egg prices.
I can already smell the omelets. All it took was war crimes.
This is absolutely fucked. Maybe the most explicit evidence of Russian interference, as I can’t think of any other reason for doing this.
This comes after they stopped providing Ukraine with intel on the whereabouts of the abducted children.
It looks like Trump has moved from Russian asset to Russian agent.
always has been
To the governor of a Russian Oblast.
Oh, come on! Let’s be generous and call it an autonomous republic.

How does cutting funding end up deleting data? Unless they where hosting this stuff on fed systems they shouldn’t have been able to touch it, much less delete it.
As for the ‘maybe it was accidental’, I’d laugh if it wasn’t so painful to reiterate what kind of sociopath we have running things.
How does cutting funding end up deleting data?
Per the article, they were explicit deletions.
How could there only be one copy of it in the first place?
This! Do they not have backups?
Fucking orange Russian cunt muppet.
Off with his head. Make Trump dead.
Yes puppet, Yes puppet, He’s a puppet.
The Trump administration cut funding to Yale University’s Humanitarian Research Lab, which was compiling a database of alleged Russian war crimes, including the abduction of an estimated 35,000 children from occupied areas of Ukraine, last month.
I mean the article is very tragic and all. But I cant help it to think the author’s sentence structure here is trying very hard to suggest the numbers were from last month. Am I the only one?
The information inside of the commas can be omitted, it’s just extra detail. The sentence can still read as ‘The Trump administration cut funding to Yale University’s Humanitarian Research Lab last month.’
The extra detail couldve been placed on another more direct position of the sentence is what Im saying…
“trying very hard” not “clearly stating the wrong”

But thanks for being so helpful
