The Elders Chair Mary Robinson Uses UN Press Conference to Denounce President Trump
Canada Free Press ^ | 06/13/19 | Joseph Klein

Posted on 06/13/2019 12:05:55 PM PDT by Sean_Anthony

The Elders Chair Mary Robinson is a firm believer in a global governance structure that exalts transnational institutions and the notion of global citizenship over the sovereignty of self-governing nation-states

The Elders describe themselves as “a group of independent leaders, brought together by Nelson Mandela in 2007, who use their collective experience and influence for peace, justice and human rights worldwide.” Its chair is Mary Robinson, who served previously as president of Ireland and United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights. She has also been serving more recently as UN Special Envoy on Climate. In her capacity as Chair of the Elders, she addressed the UN Security Council on Wednesday, along with the Elders’ Deputy Chair, former UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon. Some other leading members of the Elders include Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, former president of Liberia; Gro Harlem Brundtland, former president of Norway; Ricardo Lagos, former president of Chile; Juan Manuel Santos, former president of Colombia; Ernesto Zedillo, former president of Mexico; and Zeid Raad Al Hussein, the anti-Israel, anti-Trump former UN High Commissioner for Human Rights.

If he gets re-elected, God willing, on 22Jan2021 he needs to put the UN on notice that they’re being evicted from the East Side of Manhattan and need to find a new home. Preferably in Europe, where if they want to bash the US and its President they can’t do it on US soil. Then tell them that we’re withdrawing from the Security Council and will just be a normal members like all the rest.

If the frauds of the UN don’t like that, then we withdraw all together and they get no more American dollars or assistance. Let the soldiers of the African Union do all the work. You know, the ones that spend their time assaulting and raping the women and girls they’re supposed to be protecting.

Enough is enough. If an ally needs help, we sure as hell don’t need the UNs permission for anything. If we need to go to war and devastate an enemy, we for damned sure don’t need to talk to the UN about anything.

However, this self-important “elder” acted more like one of the progressive Democrats running to take on President Trump in 2020 when she used a press briefing at UN headquarters the day before her address to the Security Council to excoriate President Trump. She blamed, at least in part, what she characterized as President Trump’s “poor leadership” for the rise of populism around the world and the increasing tendency of countries to put “country first in an isolationist, nationalistic way.” Ms. Robinson also complained about what she claimed was the “destabilizing” effect of President Trump’s tweets.

Ms. Robinson told reporters that the Elders had met with the autocratic presidents of China and Russia. However, the Elders had not requested any meeting with President Trump.

Another Leftist trying to bring down the US to bolster everyone else. Just another reason to bail on the UN.

Instead of Elder Chair, it should be Baby Chair.

How utterly comic-con sci-fi. The Communist Elders say, you can’t be free and half of you must sacrifice or the entire world will be destroyed.😱 They’ve been planning this dominatrix crap since the beginning.

Get your own website and leave us alone.

Speaking as an Irish descendant, there is a type of Irish person who specializes in anger, resentment and barely contained fury; and their politics follow on.

The United NOTHING is nothing more than a VIP lounge for dictators and terrorists. Even though the UN campus is an excellent example of mid 20th century architecture, knock it down then sell the site to Trump’s kids for $1. Let them negotiate with the Mohawks to build a casino there.

Truer words have never been spoken. Those diplomats are living the life in Manhattan while their people eat rocks.

Not to mention patronizing “high class” hookers while enforcing blasphemy laws and the strict morals their so called religion dictates in the sh*thole nations they come from.
