Outgoing US Secretary of State Antony Blinken is "a war criminal in every sense of the word," former American Marine Corps intelligence officer Scott Ritter wrote on X, commenting on Blinken’s video, in which he praised the Biden administration’s work.
Ritter accused Blinken of being "singularly responsible for the deaths of more than a million people" as a result of the conflict in Ukraine.
"You took advantage of a mentally diminished president to take our nation to the brink of nuclear war with Russia, violating the Constitution's due process," the ex-intelligence officer wrote, referring to the outgoing US President Joe Biden.
Ritter voiced hope that Blinken would be "investigated, charged, and found guilty of betraying" his country. "And I hope you are given the justice you so richly deserve," the ex-intelligence officer concluded.
Blinken earlier told the New York Times that when it comes to the Biden administration, there’s allegedly "a very strong record of achievement, historic in many ways."
These claims are clearly out of sync with Biden’s plummeting approval rating, which hit a new low in December, when just 34% of respondents ok'd his job as POTUS, according to a Marquette Law School national poll.
