US Ambassador to the UN Nikki Haley is making good on her threat to cut US aid to countries that vote against the US in the United Nations.
In December, 128 countries voted in the United Nations General Assembly against the United States recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. At the time, President Trump and Haley threatened that there would be grave repercussions for recipients of US aid who failed to stand by their benefactor on such issues.
On Thursday, Foreign Policy reported on a 53-page memo issued by Haley. Titled America First Foreign Assistance Policy, the new policy will make good on that threat.
It is the opinion of the U.S. mission to the U.N. that all U.S. foreign assistance should be reevaluated to ensure that taxpayers dollars are spent to advance U.S. interests, not to fund foreign legacy programs that provide little or no return on investment, the memo read.
The memo suggested there will be a general reassessment of the policy guiding US foreign aid.
The autopilot nature of many U.S. foreign assistance efforts is leaving far too much low-hanging fruit that should be either eliminated or leveraged into greater support at the U.N. and elsewhere, the memo said.

Shes certainly received a lot of negative comments from current FReepers in the past. But that is now the norm...You must mean be referring to the Putin-fanboys siding with Iran and Assad instead of Jerusalem.

She crumbled real quick on the South Carolina Flag issue...that is what comes to mind, not sure what else. Not passing judgement one way or another just presenting the facts.

So how long is it going to take for some hack Federal judge to step in claiming jurisdiction over this and enjoining the Trump administration from following through on the withholding of funds?
Never underestimate the power of activist progressives in black robes...

You’ve got to be kidding, right?
Nazi Haley is dumb as a box of rocks.
Ruined the great state of South Carolina through her ignorance and desire to placate the left. She’s easily swayed by the newspapers and ridicule by the media.
Pushing a broom at the UN is about all she’s good for.

If a few of those black robe tyrants woke up in Gitmo following their midnight flight, the rest might start following our law.
