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.”
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.

THAT’S going to work really well.
PREACH IT!
God granted us a reprieve with President Trump, but it is by no means an answer.
He just gave people more time to repent and turn to Jesus.
THIS would be a campaign promise JD Vance could be elected President on in 2028.
GET THE US OUT OF THE UN!
GET THE UN THE HELL OUT OF THE US!
I might even register democrat so I can vote more than once for him if he campaigned on this one topic.
Amen!
Who gives a crap what the UN thinks. They are nothing more than a bunch of globalization commies.
The US is the only country in the world that currently has freedom of speech.
We also might just be the only country in the world that has freedom of education.

Dear UN:
All of you can kiss our American ass. While you’re at it, please exit the US and situate in one of your beloved shithole countries.

It is the UN ... global communists exist to be ignored by us.
-> UN TOMAH !
Pound Sand.
The third world freeloaders in the UN need to STHU! Scumbags.
Exactly. Anyone that has words like this leave their mouth are just 2-bit tyrants that need ‘educating’.
2nd...the UN? It has to be the most corrupt organization in the world.
long past due to get the UnitedNazis OUT of USA
and so far as I am concerned, to pull USA out of the UN except perhaps to keep the security council seat to be able to veto any more UnitedNazis krap
They should be thrown out, 100%. We should change the UN building to housing for homeless veterans, and the US should back charge every single country in the UN for services rendered, rent, electricity, etc.
I “demand” that the UN building be demolished and made into a breakwater.
Kindly go F**k yourself. Thank you...
TOTAL BS.
KEEP PUSHING THIS & THE UN CAN FIND A NEW HOME SO FAST THEY WILL NOT BELIEVE IT.
AS IF THE REST OF THE WORLD HAS ‘EDUCATED” THEIR RESIDENTS.
STAY A MEMBER-—KICK THEM OUT OF THE USA.
