UN Slams Trump on Education, Demands Globalized Control
The New American ^ | July 5, 2025 | Alex Newman

The United Nations and its “human rights” bureaucracy are unhappy with American education — especially President Trump’s policies and proposals.

Instead of local or parental control, the UN is pushing for radical changes: more federal power, less educational choice, government oversight of private schools, and the promotion of controversial ideological content — all at taxpayer expense. It also wants education globally redefined as a UN-backed “human right.”

UN Investigates U.S.

The UN’s latest attack on U.S. education, parental rights, state and national sovereignty, and the Constitution came in the form of an investigation and “country report” to the UN’s dictator-dominated “Human Rights Council.” The outfit, which regularly praises mass-murdering regimes while condemning Western nations, frequently targets the God-given rights of Americans enshrined in the U.S. Constitution.  

Among other demands on education, the United States needs more federal involvement in and oversight of government and private schools, not less, argued the senior UN official in her report last month following an in-depth investigation of U.S. education policy.

Blasting Trump’s efforts to shut down or at least reduce the power of the U.S. Department of Education, the UN bureaucrat claimed they would hurt low-income students, weaken “civil rights,” disrupt “higher learning,” and produce other alleged horrors.

“The loss of federal oversight could deepen inequities, harm marginalized students and undermine social mobility,” argued UN Special Rapporteur on the Right to Education Farida Shaheed, the radical Pakistani activist who investigated the United States.

The final report does acknowledge that under the U.S. Constitution’s Tenth Amendment, education is not a federal responsibility. However, it frames that as a problem. And it then proceeds to claim that the U.S. government is obligated under “international law” to impose the UN’s agenda on education...

Indoctrination is not education.

The UN will be very lucky if they are not thrown out of the USA.

Get Afghanistan, Iran and North Korea in line first. Then get back to us.

Get the U.S. out of the U.N. and get the U.N out of the U.S.

Plainly the UN has an ideological bent that is diametrically opposed to our founding principles.

Oh, great idea. Nothing like having our kids’ education designed by Cuba, Somalia, South Africa, China, and Venezuela, all of whom are current members of the Human Rights Council. That might be even worse than having the U.S. teachers’ unions in charge.

The only law the United States of America is obliged to is the Constitution of the United States of America. We are not “obliged” to the whims of any foreign autocrat anywhere else in the world.

The UN is invited to keep their mouth shut and mind their own business. Have a nice day.

How can we get the kiddies to see the wisdom of communism if the
government does not control the formation of their thoughts and ideas and morals from the very earliest age?

They may rock the boat.
Or even begin to doubt the primary creed of:

“What’s mine is mine, what’s yours is negotiable.”

And the children become little free market capitalist swine!
Wouldn’t that be awful?

The only reason for the U.S. to maintain UN membership is the ability to use the veto we have as a permanent member of the security Council. We can prevent many bad acts by using that veto,and give cover to other nations that might be bullied

The American people need to ensure our politicians do not endorse ,support, or sign treaties hostile to our principles.

The US should pull out of the UN. Defund them entirely. Never accede to their "demands". Let them wither into obscurity with the weak support of the rest of the countries.

There is no legitimate excuse for the US to be in the UN or the UN in the US. This organization was also pivotal to the funding and coordination of illegals flooding into the US during Biden.

We need out.
