The actor reportedly complained about Biden's rebuke of the International Criminal Court action advised by his wife, a human rights lawyer.
George Clooney reportedly called a Joe Biden adviser to complain about the president’s criticism of a case his wife, human rights lawyer Amal Clooney, worked on.
The account comes via The Washington Post, which cited three unnamed sources familiar with the conversation between Clooney and Steve Ricchetti, counselor to the president.
Clooney was ticked at Biden for slamming the International Criminal Court’s effort to seek arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for alleged war crimes in the conflict with Hamas. (The court did the same for Hamas leaders.)
Amal Clooney, a special adviser with the court, recommended the move.
