$100 billion each year to make former UN Secretaries and other UN bureaucrats very rich men.
Has anyone figured out what the UN is good for? Other than big money scams I mean?

I like that pic.

US out of the UN
UN out of the US
I’ll give him 100:1 odds that most of the fund will be wasted pursuing a lie.
Oh - not the “action” he wants?
