Trump Orders US Exit From 66 International Organizations
Newsmax ^ | January 7, 2026 | Newsmax Wires

President Donald Trump on Wednesday signed a presidential memorandum directing the U.S. to withdraw from 66 international organizations that the White House said no longer serve American interests.

The White House said the directive orders all executive departments and agencies to stop participating in and funding 35 non-United Nations organizations and 31 U.N. entities that the administration concluded operate contrary to U.S. national interests, security, economic prosperity, or sovereignty.

The White House said the action follows a review of every international intergovernmental organization, convention, and treaty that the U.S. belongs to, funds, or otherwise supports.

The White House said the withdrawals will end American taxpayer funding and involvement in entities it argues advance globalist agendas over U.S. priorities, or address important issues so inefficiently that federal dollars are better spent elsewhere.

In a fact sheet released Wednesday, the White House said many of the targeted bodies promote radical climate policies, global governance, and ideological programs that conflict with U.S. sovereignty and economic strength.

The White House said American taxpayers have spent billions of dollars on such organizations with little return, while some of those groups criticize U.S. policies, advance agendas contrary to American values, or fail to achieve meaningful results despite large budgets.

Congressional Research Service reporting on U.S. contributions to the U.N. system has noted that American support is delivered through assessed dues for the U.N. regular budget and peacekeeping, along with voluntary contributions to agencies, funds, and programs, meaning funding withdrawals can have broad operational impacts even beyond the specific entities targeted.

The memorandum represents the administration's most expansive pullback to date from multilateral engagement, extending Trump's long-running argument that international commitments must produce measurable benefits for Americans and must not constrain U.S. decision-making.

I hope this is a precursor to getting out of the United Nations altogether.

This President has the BEST timing in all of history! God thank you for letting me be aware (politically) from Nixon to the current with the Presidents and their actions~! Every tom/dick/Harry is screaming about a Colorado chick in Minnesota getting killed while hitting a federal agent and he just piles it on more! I love this guy!

“35 non-United Nations organizations and 31 U.N. entities”

Not the UN itself. Maybe later.

I would guess that the US has been the majority of funding for these 66 international organizations.

And with out US funding, they will not exist?

We can only hope! There should be a time limit on anything government does, including these “memberships.” Why? Because they take on a life of their own, and no one wants to kill the golden goose.
