Some pushback on whether Trump is committing a crime against humanity by withholding supplies and services from millions of New Yorkers. Should be for a special judicial commission and jury to decide, but the language of the International Criminal Court and the Rome State is key.

It includes persecution against any identifiable group or collectivity on political, racial, national, ethnic, cultural, religious, gender - New York qualifies on ethnics, cultural and political grounds.

The statute also includes "other inhumane acts of a similar character intentionally causing great suffering, or serious injury to body or to mental or physical health." I mean...that's what is in fact happening.

Most people don't realize definition has expanded quite a bit since the 1940s to fit the modern world. Is prosecution unlikely? Yes. But that doesn't mean we can't begin to view Trump's withholding of life-saving equipment and services on a political basis as a horrendous crime.
