The Trump administration announced Tuesday it was withdrawing the U.S. from the United Nations Human Rights Council, with U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley calling the 47-member council a protector of human rights abusers, and a cesspool of political bias.
Haley noted the move came after a year where we did not see any progress.
Haley threatened the pullout last year, citing longstanding U.S. complaints that the council showed a chronic bias against Israel. Calling it an organization that is not worthy of its name, Haley decried the membership of countries like China, Cuba and Venezuela which also have been slammed for human-rights violations.

Now if we could just pull out of the entire cesspool altogether and send it over to Brussels.
I love this President.
L
WINNING!
I think we won the lottery with this president.
The US should have withdrawn from the UN, probably, the day after the UN was formed. The US seems now to be withdrawing one committee at a time.
The U.N. Human Rights Council is headed up by some of the worst human rights violators in the world. They are actually in the leadership of the Council year after year after year, Republican Oklahoma Sen. James Lankford said. They are anti-Israel, over and over again. That is their constant drumbeat. So, I get it, we can try to be there, so we can try to be a participant in it. But when you are there, we vote no every time, and it just becomes a problem every time as well. So it doesnt seem to make a difference whether we are there or not there.
This perhaps means we have more people than usual going in harm’s way now or in the near future. The message here is that we will allow no one to capture and prosecute our people under some bogus international authority, just in case there was any doubt somewhere.
Heck, the entire UN is a cesspool.
Worthy of being flushed.
If it has to remain in the U.S., why not move it to San Pelosicisco?
So the turds in the building can be one with the turds on the street.
Gads, I love Trump.
Here are just a few of the countries on the ‘Human Rights’ Council; ...Afghanistan,... Angola,... Cuba,... Ethiopia,... Iraq,... . Venezuela,... Rwanda,... Pakistan,... China,... Nigeria.... All fine examples of countries with a great record of human rights violations and abuse, including mass killings, child abuse.
I love it that the Trump World Tower is taller than the UN Building.
It’s quite true they really only want the U.S. there for its’ annual contribution’..... kudos to Nikki Haley!!!
Nope, still not tired of it...
The UN is chucked full of 3rd world worthless leaders with begging bowls....as they slide the revenue into their own pockets.
Trump,Pence, Bolton, Haley, Pompeo..Go team Go!!!
UN is now basically a do nothing entity with a Globalist Agenda controlled by unknowns using it as a money laundering operation.
Wonderful! The less America besmirches itself with UnitedNazis and fakestinians and Other anti- American anti- Christian Muslim terrorist gangs and regimes, the better. MAGA MAGA MAGA!
