Saw the building in person....across the street.

Was fairly underwelming. Would make a nice park without the building.

I used to walk over on my lunch hour with a bag lunch and sit on the steps by the wall and have my lunch. Nearby the U.N. I forget exactly where, was a Chinese restaurant that had the best Szechuan Chinese food I ever ate, and it was always loaded with all these fabulous U.N. characters, Arabs, Indian Chiefs, Japanese diplomats, Englishmen, and I'm sure spies aplenty in there. Loved to go there for lunch, always crowded the food was soooo delicious and the prices were not high. Course this was in the 70s. But yes, if they all hate us so much why should we fund that? However, I wish I could go back and sit and eat there once again. Was like something out of Protocol with Goldie Hawn, and has been my little golden memory for years.

A $10,000. private jet take-off and landing tax, at the Davos airport, should just about take care of it.
Let the globalists fund their own party.

Of course. Nothing to talk about there.

"Kick the UN out of the USA, have it go off to some 3rd world dump. Stop funding it entirely. Let it die, it is worthless anyway."

I don't think the New York City Hotel & Street prostitutes, and cabbies would agree with you. I mean that's a lot of undisclosed money & TAXES we're talking about. /s

“the 37,000 employees at the U.N. secretariat”
I wonder how many relatives and friends are on the payroll that never show up to work there are.

I’m 66, first road sign I can remember was, “Get US out of UN.”
Not a new concept.

Member nations have already paid 70 percent... thus one could calculate that with nearly 90 days of 365 that the UN isn’t too far from getting all its annual dues by 31 December. The problem is the UN is spending too much prior to getting the money pledged.

Turning the UN into a version of “The Breakfast Club”....bunch of truant nations with one thing in common - their hatred of America...and finding out in long-term detention.
