I see no shred of evidence of a compelling argument to keep the USA in the UN.

It is time we stopped paying dues to the UN.

Kick them out of the US as well.

We have been played for suckers long enough.

Isn’t “I haven’t seen a shred of evidence,” the first line of BS we usually get from lib/commie/media?

Then, eventually it’s obvious it’s true.

They just didn’t look very hard (or at all) for evidence. Because they don’t want anyone to find it.

Any time I hear a ‘non-denial denial,’ I read it as a tacit admission.

Isn’t the testimony of the hostages themselves considered evidence?

Give the UN “officials” to me. I think I could make them tell the truth.

Sounds similar to the democrats and media saying they have seen no evidence of the corruption, fraud and cheating in the 2020 presidential election. Even when presented with evidence, these types refuse to see it.

Aren’t there photos of the HAmas guys in tents with USAID stamped on all the tent panels? I am pretty sure I saw photos of UN tents with them in them also. Gotta do some research.

There’s not a shred of evidence that UN officials have ever done anything useful.
