U.S. Withdraws From UN Human Rights Council Travesty
Canada Free Press ^ | 06/20/18 | Joseph Klein

Trump administration’s decision to withdraw the United States from this charade sends a signal that the United States, the UN’s largest funder, will no longer tolerate business as usual, including double standards and hypocrisy, at the UN

The United States has withdrawn from the United Nations Human Rights Council. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley announced the Trump administration’s decision at the State Department Tuesday afternoon. “We take this step because our commitment does not allow us to remain a part of a hypocritical and self-serving organization that makes a mockery of human rights,” Ambassador Haley said at a press conference announcing the decision. Secretary of State Pompeo added succinctly, “The Human Rights Council is a poor defender of human rights.”

Blog pimps are people who post excerpted articles from blogs (usually their own), so you have to go to the blog to read the whole thing (thus providing them with site hits and possible ad money) despite there being no requirement to excerpt.

People who post already-posted news like this, whether they get it from the same site or another source, are generally just unaware. The search function here is vague at best, and doesn’t always produce hits especially when the source isn’t the same, since headlines often get tweaked. At most, this would deserve a “Dupe, already posted” with a link and a separate report to the Admin to clear the dupe.

and it’s not your choice if i point out they are site pimps- it is common etiquette to check to see if article have already been posted- but sean doesn’t bother to do so because he wishes to send traffic to his site from this site- over and over and over again he posts articles that have already been posted- hoping to get views on that site- that’s called pimping a site=- IF you wish to support such a practice- then whatever- I’ll keep pointing out he’s site pimping- whether you like it or not
