I’ll take it. It’s a very good start and no normal politician would have ever cut a penny.

I believe it when I see it. Most likely the Senate will put the funding back in.

tate Department staffers have been instructed to seek cuts in excess of 50 percent in U.S. funding for U.N. programs, signaling an unprecedented retreat by President Donald Trump’s administration from international operations that keep the peace, provide vaccines for children, monitor rogue nuclear weapons programs, and promote peace talks from Syria to Yemen, according to three sources.

Oh cry me a river! A bunch of corrupt UN Bureaucrats, unaccountable to the American People who STEAL our hard earned taxpayer dollars are going to have to learn to do without! Bullshit a single American dollar ever paid for a single vaccine for a single child. All our money got WASTED by corrupt bureaucrats!

Cut UN funding by 100%, escort the corrupt bastards to the NY River and tell 'em to swim for home. Shoot anyone who tries coming back to shore, problem solved.

The United Nations doesn’t keep the peace. The United States keeps the peace.

World Ends Tomorrow, women and children most effected! That is the Foreign Policy position in this article. They are liberal “intellectuals” who are so wrapped up in their liberal orthodoxy and own self importance that they fail to see the real world.

I’ll never forget the African doctor who said that the UN could get him all the condoms he wants but no aspirin or penicillin or plasma. That’s the real UN carrying out 19th Century eugenics.

President Trump should insist on this and slide in a line-item veto while he's pushing it through.

That way, when the Socialist Prog dogooders hijack a previously beneficial UN program and turn it anti American, against liberty or Christians, zap the US funding disappears.

“Bolton says we should get the US out of the UN but keep the HQ here so we can keep an eye on them.”

If he does that, we should make it very clear that none of these a$$holes has diplomatic “immunity” and that they will pay their traffic tickets and other civil penalties or be summarily kicked out of the country.

No, a “normal politician” would have given the UN their “annual increase!”

Stop all funding of UN.

Kick the UN out of NY.

Have nothing to do with the UN.

Watch the surplus of cash start to build up.
