Politics today spans institutional upheaval, party strategy and the theater of power. In The Hague, member states of the International Criminal Court voted to remove Chief Prosecutor Karim Khan over sexual misconduct allegations he denies, an extraordinary step that raises fresh questions about accountability at one of the world’s top legal bodies. In Washington, President Trump is set to address the rescheduled White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner, an event now shadowed by tighter security after the violent disruption of its first attempt and likely to test his uneasy relationship with the press. Meanwhile, Democrats are looking further ahead: the DNC’s rules committee has recommended making South Carolina the first contest in the 2028 presidential nominating calendar, signaling the party’s continued effort to reshape its early-state map around a more diverse electorate. Together, the day’s developments underscore how politics remains driven by credibility, symbolism and control of the stage.
