Funding the United Nations Is Making Less Sense Than Ever

United Nations Headquarters
"Here's an idea: Let's stop funding this globalist organization altogether.

In 2018, the UN's General Assembly issued a total of 27 condemnations of nations for various actions that the UN considered nefarious in one way or another. Twenty-one of them were against the State of Israel, mainly for its attempts to defend itself against Hamas and its 'abuse' of Palestinians. The United States got its annual condemnation, sponsored by Cuba for 'the necessity of ending the economic, commercial and financial embargo imposed by the United State of America against Cuba.'

North Korea, Russia, Syria, Iran, and Myanmar were also condemned by the UN General Assembly, one time each. Ridiculously, serial human-rights abusers such as China, Pakistan, Venezuela, Zimbabwe, and Somalia were not condemned even one time by the UN in 2018...

The UN's original mission called for the maintenance of international peace and safety. It has far outgrown that mission and is attempting to set itself up as some sort of seat of global government. But the truth is, the UN needs the United States much more than the United States needs the UN. The UN, with its climate-change fear mongering and obvious political biases, is not an organization that deserves respect. Without U.S. involvement, it would probably quickly go the same route as the League of Nations - and good riddance.

During the 2016 presidential campaign, then-candidate Donald Trump got big applause with promises to cut funding for certain United Nations programs. Candidate Trump often stated that, when elected, he would be 'canceling billions in climate-change spending for the United Nations.'

Imagine the cheers in 2020 should he announce that he intends to withdraw from the UN altogether."
