New York Times ^ | JAN. 25, 2017 | By MAX FISHER

WASHINGTON — The Trump administration is preparing executive orders that would clear the way to drastically reduce the United States’ role in the United Nations and other international organizations, as well as begin a process to review and potentially abrogate certain forms of multilateral treaties, officials said.

The first of the two draft orders, titled “Auditing and Reducing U.S. Funding of International Organizations” and obtained by The New York Times, calls for terminating funding for any United Nations agency or other international body that meets any one of several criteria.

I was not a big Trump fan until about a month before the election, when it dawned on me that Trump is a leader and he convinced me he was very sincere and loved this country. These are things Reagan wanted to do, but Trump is the one doing these things. He is fearless.

Liberals are going to have a very long 8 years.

For me, I am ecstatic beyond words.

Does the concept of having a veto at the Security Council sound familiar?

I see, so the U.S. will have the same voting power and influence as Somalia? Right?

And are you suggesting the billions the U.N. looted from the U.S., has nothing to do with U.S. influence? Really?

I like it. I’m against just wholesale leaving the UN due to the impact it would have on UNSC votes, but this is a great compromise. We maintain our seat and voting influence while cutting back what we pay. We can strangle and vote.

If you knew anything about anything, you would know that the US is a Permanent Member of the Security Council, and as such has veto power over major UN actions, and Somolia is not and does not.

Since you didn’t even know that, which is usually covered in 10th Grade Civics, I simply will not reply to you anymore.

Go back to providing deviant art to little boys, as the Dragnet2 site so clearly shows.

You’ve been busted.

And the hundreds of billions looted from U.S. tax payers by their own globalist loser leaders was not used as influence?

And if the U.N. routinely voted against the U.S. at every turn, do ya think our "Influence" will remain the same after Trump ends or reduces the money flow?

Btw, are you not the one who alleged I was not in CA, I was actually a Russian spy or something and you located my website, right?

Wasn't that you? Didn't you tell me I was "Busted" last week regarding this?

One more thing Strac, if you think you can make this level of reckless allegations directed at me, with out redress, you’re very mistaken.

I hope it starts with cutting US funding to the UN.

The US has been paying a lot more than our reasonable share.

In committee meetings before she announced her strong support for this policy. She might be OK so let’s give her a chance and find out.

My dear Mr. Dragnet2,

You are of course, perfectly free to deny “http://dragnet2.deviantart.com/"; is your website.

Some might actually believe you. If they did believe it was not your site, however, they might then wonder why you chose a name already associated with Deviant Art for more than 8 years?

Tell us, how do you define Deviant Art? Is it pedophile art, does it depict the persecution of Christians, how exactly is it self-described as Deviant Art.

And why does the site say you, or if you claim it, “someone else using your name” feature the name Dragnet2 in its name, especially since Dragnet2 seems to originate in Russia, where many anti-FR and anti-USA trolls originate!

Of course, you can claim that’s all a complete coincidence, can’t you?
