I actually do consider myself a fiscal conservative and in that vein believe that any and every agency that hasn't passed an audit together with any and all agencies that cannot show public benefits to the masses of people who live in the USA should be either eliminated completely or face dramatic cuts, which is to say The Pentagon, CIA, FBI, NSA, NIA, ICE & the DHS should be eliminated with the entire defense department - mainly the regular military getting dramatically cut in it's budget. Likewise we should be switching congress to a per diem pay schedule and off of salaries, with pension removal and rolled over into the standard SS retirement system. When those benefits were put in place they were commonly had by workers but now they're nearly non-existent.
I still likewise believe #UBI but not as a small amount given as a #CDBC but rather at as a long-term livable amount of money that would be sent out as direct deposits to banks or credit unions of people's choices and hold an option that if some want paper checks or cash direct, that they'd be allowed to pickup said money's in person at their nearest post office. This could be connected to reopening postal banking or not, giving people choices being the most important part of this. An amount

The #judges heard all the arguments from both sides. Now's the time for some additional questions for #prosecution and #defence teams – they could help clarify everything to pass the fair judgement.

10 years in prison for spreading hate speech and broadcasting songs that could lead to a massacre in Rwanda – that's the word of #prosecution on the #SimonBikindi #trial.
Was that his responsibility after all? The other side is still to say...

Long-term growing tensions between Hutu and Tutsi ended up in a genocide in 1994, which led to the extermination of up to 800 000 Tutsi population of #Rwanda.
The #MICC is trying to figure out what role the famous singer-songwriter #SimonBikindi played in it.

In today’s final session of the #MICC in #Krzyżowa, the Judges delivered their decision on the verdict in the #BikindiCase: The Rwandan singer and composer was found GUILTY as an abettor for the commission of the crime of genocide in Ruanda in 1994. #KOinternational #BikindiCase (1/4)

Today the #MICC in #Krzyżowa delivered the verdict on the #Praljakcase: NOT guilty.
The court believes there is no connection between Praljak and the destruction of the #OldBridge in #Mostar. The Judges are sure Praljak wanted to save historical significant bridge. The timeline of the accused's position as general commander indicates that his influence at the moment of the destruction of the bridge was expired. #KOinternational, by @yulyamakarevych

The verdict in the #Flickcase has been delivered today at the #MICC and pronounced Friedrich Flick NOT guilty, with 2:1 dissenting opinion.
The court's view is that Flick did not have effective control over the factories and that the prosecution could not prove beyond reasonable doubts the complicity of Flick in the crime of enslavement.
The judgment delivered 7 decades ago stands overturned in today's perspectives.
