When UN Ambassador Nikki Haley was appointed, she said she'd be "taking names" of countries that didn't "have our back" at the world body. The State Department has released its annual report on UN voting records that clearly shows who our friends are and who isn't.
Haley emphasized that U.S. taxpayers pay for 22 percent of the U.N. budget – more, she said, than the next three highest donor nations combined. Haley noted that the U.S. cares more about “being right than popular and are once again standing up for our interests and values” but said:
“Either way, this is not an acceptable return on our investment. When we arrived at the UN last year, we said we would be taking names, and this list of voting records speaks for itself.
