Its Christmas and weve just got word about one of the best-ever Christmas gifts a patriot could ever wish for: the US ambassador at the UN Nikki Haley just announced that she negotiated a $285 million cut in United Nations bloated budget. Thats a big chunk of taxpayers dollars that will not be wasted on that globalist institution next year. Nikki Haley made the announcement on Sunday and she was quoted as saying:
The inefficiency and overspending of the United Nations are well known. We will no longer let the generosity of the American people be taken advantage of or remain unchecked.
She might have added that America will no longer be lured by the false song of globalism, but well settle with defunding the UN for now. Nikki Haley explained that since the United Nations is not accountable for the vast amounts of money spent very inefficiently, like any other bureaucracy we know of, this is unacceptable and things must change:

Idiot liberal judge to “suspend” Trump’s changes in 3,2,1......
A good start.
This is the right way to do it. You don’t just pull your !obey. Use your position at the U.N to reduce the budget so your money and influence can’t simply be replaced. So this regularly
No more caviar with the Surf and Turf bteakfasts? Scandalous!
It’s a good START. I hope we do this about every 6 months.
The author is no fan of Nikki Haley, but I do like the idea of slashing the funding further every time the UN has an anti-US resolution, and announce to the world each time why the funding is being cut. Rinse and repeat.
MAGA!
Merry Christmas and FUUN!!!
I seem to think what is being referred to a a ‘cut in funding’ is really a cut in UN budgeting - There seems no indiction in this story that the US is actually going to pay them less, just the the UN is going to spend less.
A new text / chat acronym & Internet abbreviation is proposed:
WWLL -> What winning looks like.
Cut it ALL!.................
Funding an anathema to U.S. sovereignty. Cut - more, more, more. UNaccountable bureaucrats.
.....correct me if I’m wrong but the US currently funds some 6 billion to the UN each year. So, a 285 million dollar cut in 6 billion is only 4.7%.
A measly 10% cut would be 600 million.
So, yes, 285 million is a welcome cut. But, that’s all. A value should be placed on the benefit of even having a UN for the American People. I say it’s ONE Billion!..........MAX.
So give all taxpayers in the US an additional refund this year. Maybe a couple of bucks each? I’ll take it. Notice the operative word here is “Taxpayers” not the population.
Now really drive the Left nuts . . .
Donate the entire $285 million to the endowment funds of the HBCU’s like Grambling, Tuskagee, Toukaloo and others . . .
Thanks davikkm.
Hey that there is some sharp thinking.
It never occurred to me.
But then, I’m not that sharp :)
USA Cuts $285 Million from UN Funding
A fart in a hurricane to make it appear that Trump is at least doing something. Rediculous BS. Much unlike Trump. Too little...too late.
Tiny little droplet of what he should have yanked from them.
