Here’s some news that will make a lot of conservatives very happy.
The United Nations has a massive budget problem and may run out of cash by the end of this month.
What a shame.
CBS News reports:
United Nations could run out of money in a few weeks, Secretary General warns
The United Nations is running a deficit of $230 million, Secretary General Antonio Guterres said on Monday, and may run out of money by the end of October. In a letter intended for the 37,000 employees at the UN secretariat and obtained by CBS News’ Pamela Falk, Guterres said unspecified “additional stop-gap measures” would have to be taken to ensure salaries and entitlements are paid.
“Member States have paid only 70 percent of the total amount needed for our regular budget operations in 2019. This translates into a cash shortage of $230 million at the end of September. We run the risk of depleting our backup liquidity reserves by the end of the month,” he wrote.
To cut costs, Guterres mentioned postponing conferences and meetings and reducing services, while also restricting official travel to only essential activities and taking measures to save energy.
Guterres had asked member states earlier this year to up contributions to the world body to head off cash flow problems, but they refused, a UN official told French news agency AFP on condition of anonymity.

Evict them when they miss the rent payment.
Is there a downside?
Hopefully a sign to be put up.

I want all the globalist organizations to go away.
Amen!
Any bets that the climate change scam and Paris treaty was a way for the UN to slim money? They probably had everything set up to "process" payments.
Can you imagine the wholesale rip off of equipment and furniture, etc. that will take place as they leave?
Wow!
Anyway-it would be WORTH it!!
DEFUND/DISMANTLE UNaccountable bureaucratic collectives...SOCIALISTS. DESTROY as necessary.

Require cash in advance for all purchases by the United Nations.
They appear to be insolvent.

You mean other nations are not paying their fair share?
Be a pity if it folded. ~s~
Lock the doors and sell the content to pay for overdue bills.
They want their $100 Billion a year for Global Warming Obama/Hillary promised them ,LOL
Send home all diplomats of countries who have not met their contribution obligations. Somehow they will find the money because every one of those diplomats love living in New York. My Sympathy Meter for the UN is broken.
Well I’ll be damned!....... who da’ thunk it?
Burkino Faso had better fess up
